This 1929 Ford Model A Roadster is powered by a 201ci L-head
inline-four engine with a Zenith one-barrel carburetor factory
rated at 40hp and 128 lb-ft of torque, paired with a three-speed
manual transmission driving the rear wheels. Stopping is provided
by four-wheel drum brakes. The body is finished in Arabian Sand
Dark with matching fenders and running boards and is equipped with
a black soft-top. It rides on black 16-inch wire wheels mounted
with Excelsior Classic tires measuring 4.50/4.75-Z1. A matching
spare tire is mounted on the driver's-side fender. The cabin
features a black vinyl bench seat with matching door panels.
Instrumentation includes a speedometer, ammeter and fuel-level
gauge along with additional Rex-A-Co gauges mounted below the
steering column for water temperature and oil pressure.
Accompanying documentation includes an Illinois title showing a
transfer dated June 1, 1936, from an impound auction. The vehicle
is presented as a tribute to a 1929 Ford Model A associated with
American gangster John Dillinger.
