This 34 Ford 5 Window is an extremely well built and thought out
car. Not all street rods are created equal and this one has no
problem standing out from the crowd. It has been extremely well
cared for since constructed so still has a fresh show ready look.
It is an all steel car by Ford with some exceptional body
enhancements including the custom built louvered hood and deck lid,
a 3 inch chop and it has also been channeled 4 inches. The front
grill shell was custom built with double wall thickness. The chrome
front grill is by Bob Drake and sets it apart from the 32 Hi Boys
you are use to seeing. The exterior is painted a beautiful Canary
Yellow with some very classy pin striping by the famous Frank
Palmer. The LED tail lights have been frenched as well as the power
antenna. The conversion of the suicide doors is so well done that
it looks to be a factory job. It has an excellent stance and rides
on a set of great looking Budnik wheels. (295-45R16 in rear and
205-50R15 up front)
The car is powered by a crate ZZ4 350/355 hp motor that is fully
dressed out. It has a cool custom air cleaner that at first glance
gives the impression of a fuel injection system. The brackets and
serpentine belt system are all by Billet Specialties. The valve
covers at polished fin style and look great. The engine is kept
cool by an aluminum Griffin radiator with a shrouded electric fan
from Cooling Components. The exhaust runs through a nice set of
headers attached to 2 1/2 inch stainless exhaust with Flowmaster
mufflers. The motor is connected to a 700R4 4 speed overdrive
automatic transmission which is connected to the 3:73 geared rear
end by a chrome driveshaft. With this gear ratio, in overdrive the
effective ratio drops to 2:61. The front suspension consists of a
chromed Super Bell drilled I beam straight axle with a 4 link and a
Mullins steering gear box. This car drives so nice you would swear
that it has an independent front suspension. The rear suspension is
made up of a fully chromed Corvette independent rear with
adjustable coil-overs. You will find polished Wilwood disc brakes
under all corners and the front disc brakes have special air scoops
for cooling purposes.
The custom interior is a thing of beauty with light tan (Beige)
Ultra Leather seats and real #1 grade Ostrich skins. The seats came
out of a 2004 Corvette and the drivers is power adjustable. The
custom door panels and headliner are done with the same materials
and look wonderful. A full set of Classic Antique face with gold
trim gauges are set in a custom made Rosewood panel by Wabbit Wood
Works. A custom panel also surrounds the Vintage Air AC/Heater
controls. The custom center console houses the power window
controls, power door lock controls and the tachometer. The leather
and rosewood overhead console houses a couple of nice reading
lights and a very nice sounding Sony stereo system. If all that
wasn't enough, there is a polished tilt steering column by Ididit
with a Rosewood banjo steering wheel and a Lokar transmission floor
shifter. The floors and door panels have been insulated with
Dynamat and Lizard Skin to keep the passenger compartment cool and
quiet.
I am confident that we have overlooked some other features of this
car, but by the description above you should get the idea of the
quality build and the fact that there was no expense spared.
This super cool Street Rod is being offered at a price far under
what it would take to duplicate.
Park it in your garage for $52,500.00!
