Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Indianapolis is proud to feature this 1929
Ford Model A Hot Rod! A monstrous build of a Model A with so much
time and money that's been put into it, you'd consider it a steal
at this price. To think of the amount of work one would put in to
get something to look this cool, we couldn't begin to fathom. But
we'll take you through a little bit of what brough it to this
unique level and how it's set up. But that is just a drop of water
in this Model A's bucket!First, we'll hit you with the meat and
potatoes that everyone asks first! This bad-to-the-bone Model A is
equipped with a 409 Chevy motor packing 472 HP that was
professionally built by 409 Chevy Performance, the man, Jack Gibbs,
himself. Fitted with Edelbrock aluminum heads, dual quad, manifold,
Ross pistons, and a machined block. All that mated to a Powerglide
Automatic Transmission that has been professionally rebuilt!Now for
some of the build! It took 9 grueling months of professional labor
to complete this car. Hundreds of hours of sanding, grinding,
buffing, and polishing the 85-year-old body and spraying it and the
frame with a clear coat to protect and showcase this amazing
stainless-steel body that makes this thing look like pure machine!
Having done a 4" chop (Professionally done and seamless!) to bare
