Vehicle Description
The Highboys capture one of the coolest eras in custom classic
cars. They stripped away the weight and found the beauty in
simplicity. And this 1929 Ford Model A Highboy seems to capture
that idea perfectly. After all, the full glossy white style almost
seems to show off the pureness of the design. And the fiberglass
body was built with sleekness in mind. Plus, this understands the
other important part of this roadster scene: individual flair.
There's an evolution to this car. Without it, there wouldn't be
personal details like the etched wind wings or the cool red and
chrome wire wheels. So take some time looking over the full package
because there's added beauty in a Highboy that has been allowed to
evolve.

Most Highboys you see are fresh builds trying to recreate a moment
in history, but this car is a bit different. It is a fiberglass car
but it doesn't get accused of being part of the nouveau riche
crowd. There is a long history here with an evolution of the style
and even a magazine story nearly 30 years ago. So you have cleaner
lines than Henry Ford steel while still getting the kind of
distinct style that can only come from multiple people and multiple
decades of work and care. So if you're looking for the Highboy you
drive, and tell plenty of stories everywhere you arrive, this is
the one. Call today!!!
