Vehicle Description
This 1930 Ford Model A Pickup earns its custom flames on the front
with its awesome fuel-injected stroker motor shining in the engine
bay. While that can win you awards all on its own, it's just part
of an awesome fully-custom all-steel build that has thoughtful
premium details everywhere from the oak wood in the truck bed to
the A/C interior.
From the first moment you lay eyes on this one, you know they got
the stance to look just right. This Ford keeps the correct amount
of original pickup with plenty of great hot rod touches. And that
spirit goes beyond the silhouette. The Henry Ford steel has been
massaged to look amazing, right down to the windshield overhang and
fenders. But keen eyes will see that this was distinctly altered
from the pre-war days. Not only have two inches been chopped from
the cab roof, but also the cab has been stretched 11 inches. It's
an expert addition that gives this the same style as a five-window
coupe, and you'll understand the substance behind the style once
you step inside. There's plenty more custom work you can see on the
outside everywhere from the smoothly flowing front end to the
custom truck bed. Of course, the way the whole body has a smooth
look is the unmissable sign of a professional build. And because
this was completed in 2019 and only about 11k miles have been put
on it since, the Burgundy Metallic Pearl still radiates to make the
full truck look like it was candy-coated. Tri-bar headlights,
shaved door handles, sport mirrors, an integrated third brake
light, a smooth rear pan, and wide dual exhaust tips are all part
of this detail-oriented custom style. Even the wheels are a
thoughtful setup with classic American Racing Torq Thrust units
that have a big polish and a 14/15-inch front/rear stagger for an
intimidating stance. Also, it wouldn't be a true pickup if it
didn't have a bed, and so beautifully oak was laid down. The lumber
is so glossy, the only thing you'll be using this pristine area for
is displaying your trophies.
The driver's remote opener is on your key fob, and so it's great to
watch people's reaction as you pop the door from outside the car.
And this also opens up a world of custom comfort. The gray tweed
upholstery has a good look as it coordinates with the carpeting,
headliner, and dash for a full uniform style. There's a ton of
comfort with cold-blowing air conditioning, power locks, tinted
windows, and an overhead console that has both the power windows
and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input. The dash even has a large
screen for the backup camera. And the moment you sit down in the
bucket seats, you know this was done with added comfort in mind.
The extra room of the custom cab gives you more legroom, which is a
very welcomed addition. And it's built with the driver in mind with
a Lecarra sports steering wheel, tilt column, and a full AutoMeter
gauges package with large speedo and tach.
We love how the hood has the same tri-color inferno that matches
the fenders for a terrific flame-kissed style up front. So it
creates a bit of a dilemma because it's also removable to let you
fully showcase the amazing powerhouse underneath. Rather than list
all the shining components on this fresh powerhouse, instead, we
are just going to dare you to find another component that can be
polished. And the way that the wires, hoses, and supporting pieces
are hidden are all part of a thoughtful setup. Even the Walker
aluminum radiator w/electric fan was carefully installed. Beyond
the style, you'll find the substance of a fully built 383
cubic-inch stroker motor with a four-bolt main. It has been
enhanced and fortified with a custom steel crank, Howard rods, LS
Pistons, a Comp Cams .525 roller camshaft, Dart aluminum heads, and
shorty headers. It's topped off with a Holley Avenger fuel
injection system mounted on a Hilborn intake. This mighty motor
makes a nice rumble out of the dual exhaust, and whenever you
really want to bring the thunder, there are eclectic cutouts. The
TH400 three-speed automatic transmission was rebuilt to remain both
stout and smooth. It feeds a Ford 8-inch 3.71 limited-slip rear end
for versatile and confident driving. Plus, with a full custom
chassis, a tubular A-arm front suspension, ladder bar rear,
adjustable coilovers all-around, power brakes w/front discs, and
rack & pinion steering, this is an easy choice to show off near or
far.
The sale comes complete with a huge file of restoration photos
(over 1,700!) so that you can follow the truck's transformation. If
you enjoy all eyes on you everywhere from a cruise-in to a Sunday
car show, this is the full build you need. Call today!!!
