Vehicle Description
Nicknamed "Durty 30," this custom Ford is powered by a 6.0-liter
all-aluminum fuel-injected Corvette LS2 engine wearing a
centrifugal Vortec supercharger, Callies crank, K1 pistons and
custom blower cam producing 585rwhp. The engine is also outfitted
with a custom billet alternator mount with CNC heads, a custom
air-to-water intercooler, custom powder-coated black 4-core
aluminum radiator with electric fan, custom headers, custom
aluminum fuel tank, and a high-heat ceramic-coated 3-inch exhaust
system with Borla mufflers and square tips built into the frame.
The engine and transmission are Cerakote painted and detailed with
hand-built engine covers. Every nut and bolt is dry-filmed, ARP
stainless or polished. The 6L80E automatic transmission has a 3200
Yank stall converter and turns an independent Ford 8.8-inch rear
end with Ford Motorsports 456 gears, Auburn posi-traction, custom
1,000hp-capable axles and a custom aluminum driveshaft. A set of
Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes with 13-inch rotors, 6-piston calipers
and electric brake master cylinder provides the stopping power. The
original 1932 Ford frame rails were widened, bobbed, boxed and
reinforced, and the all-stainless custom Indy-style cantilever
pushrod suspension was built on top of the frame to get the car as
low as possible. This suspension features RideTech Shockwave
air-ride in the front and rear, custom front and rear sway bars and
multiple one-off polished billet components. The one-off 24x15 and
21x9 custom Kompression wheels were the first true 4-piece floating
spoke wheels ever made and were unveiled at SEMA 2016. They're
polished and brushed with Candy Copper clear and wrapped in Pirelli
255/30/21 front and 405/25/24 rear tires. Durty 30's original steel
1930 Ford Model A body was widened 8 inches and stretched 6 inches,
the door handles smoothed, actuated suicide doors installed, and an
altered 1940 Chevy hood and modified 1938 Terraplane grille were
installed. Custom LED headlights and signal lights were built into
a billet crossmember, and a 1938 Ford truck windshield that was
flipped upside down with a tinted bronze glass was installed. This
Ford is finished in a custom-blended Glasurit black paint with
copper/gold flake and Orange Candy topped with eight coats of
clear. The roof is fully custom and removable and is covered in
ostrich hide with a polished aluminum backbone that the two roof
halves are attached to and custom solid copper water-jet-cut and
polished brackets. The interior features triple-layered polished
stainless, real copper and painted aluminum floating seats with
suede inserts, Racepak dash with stainless and ebony inserts, ebony
hardwood floor, 2011 Cadillac CTSV console, push-button start and a
signal light switch hidden in the shifter boot. It also features a
custom floating console with iPad surround and custom solid copper
rearview mirror mount. A few of the awards and accomplishments
garnered by this custom ride include Goodguys Builder's Choice
Awards at the Spokane, WA, and Pleasanton, CA, events, and an
invitation to the Grand National Roadster Show in Los Angeles,
where the car dash was signed by Chip Foose. CRS2 Video gaming
company from England approached the owner at SEMA and now Durty 30
is featured in one of their popular video games.
