Old school hot rod! It's a real 31 Ford steel body done with the
nostalgia of a hot rod built in the 50s. Very well-built car, looks
and performs great. It's exciting!
EXTERIOR: It's a real steel body Model A. It has been shaved and
chopped 4 inches. A metal pleated roof was installed in place of
the vinyl insert. The door handles and gas cap were removed and
filled. The trunk has rounded corners. Excellent body work, it's
straight with no damage or rust. Show quality matador red paint and
pinstripes by Monkey Boy. The doors open by a remote knob. Teardrop
taillights have LED bulbs and bluedots. Rare vintage Las Vegas car
club emblem on the trunk. It has smoked glass. I love the
tire/wheel combo. Red steel rims with Ford center caps and radial
white wall tires, much fatter in back!
INTERIOR: I'm 6 ft and fit comfortably in this car. It has a
pleated bench seat, custom upholstered door panels and a cloth
headliner. The custom metal dash is painted and pinstriped. It has
a full set of matched gauges. Other features include racing style
seatbelts, a B&M ratchet shifter and a polished wood wheel.
There is an overhead stereo system.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It's a 350 with four bolt mains, it's been
blueprinted and dyno tuned. It has a Clay Smith solid cam, Mallory
ignition and aluminum side shot headers. On top is a set of
Edelbrock dual quads, aluminum intake, high rise aluminum air
cleaner with ram air and flipper door. Fully decorated with chrome
and polished parts. Finned aluminum valve covers and breathers. A
big radiator, chrome water pump and polished overflow bottle keep
it running cool.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Power trunk release is inside the car. It's
fully carpeted including under the lid. The battery and fuel filler
are relocated inside the trunk.
UNDERSIDE: In front it has a 4 inch drop axle, shocks and a
transverse spring. It has a boxed frame. In back is a four link
suspension with coil over shocks and panhard bar. It has drum
brakes at each wheel. Bottom of the motor has a finned oil pan and
oil filter, starter looks fresh. It has a 700R4 overdrive with a
B&M shifter, transmission cooler and a finned oil pan. The
driveshaft is a hardened steel and has a safety loop. Heavy duty
Ford 9 inch rear.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and replaced the fuel pump, the
accelerator pumps on each carb, set the choke and adjusted the
timing.
This is a very well built hot rod and I do mean it's hot rod in
every sense of the words. It has the looks, a healthy sound and way
more horsepower than needed in this striped down lightweight
car!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
