Vehicle Description
Bright, slick, fresh, and an overall thoughtful build, this 1929
Ford Model A Speedster is a cool and fun custom that impresses with
the detailed style that can turn back the clock.
This has an instantly striking style. The clean aluminum body has a
bright kind of shine that reminds you those black and white
pictures never did the pre-war Indy 500 any justice. We're told
that this was a six-month build, and the added time was all about
paying attention to the details. Everything about this one shows
that there was added thoughtfulness. It's in the way the beige
paint on the front end is repeated on the fenders and racing
numbers. And there are a ton of period-correct details, like the
wire wheels, motometer-style radiator cap, leather straps on the
hood, and dual racing windscreens. In fact, the only modern piece
you may spot on the exterior is the set of crystal-clear tri-bar
headlights.
The interior is clean, simple, and functional - just like a proper
roadster should be. The restoration was not about adding comforts
that came in the post-WWII era, and instead, the money was spent in
getting feeling fresh and correct. Low-back bucket seats surround
you and your passenger. The big steering wheel feels grippy in your
hands, the dash is smooth/clean, and the gearstick has the long
mechanical action you'll love. Just like the exterior, there are
some cool details, like the saddlebag behind the seat, exterior
handbrake lever, side steps, and integrated grab handles over the
rear tank.
Just like the rest of the car, the engine bay is ready to be shown
off with its clean and correct style. Ford's 201 cubic-inch motor
is a marvel of simplicity. So it loves to deliver plenty of torque,
and the parts availability will keep this custom an easy-to-own
classic. This is a fresh build and the way this fires up and runs
really reminds you of that. The three-speed manual transmission
gives you good control over the motor, and the classic racer feels
quite agile out on the road.
There was a lot of time, effort, and investment to get this looking
so distinct. So if you want to own something fresh and fun, don't
miss this roadster. Call today!!!
