This 1929 Ford Model A Custom Depot Hack combines the unmistakable
character of Fords legendary Model A with the craftsmanship and
charm of a hand-built wood body.Power comes from a traditional Ford
Model A 200.5ci L-head inline 4-cylinder engine paired with a
3-speed manual transmission and the familiar Model A torque-tube
driveline. The engine carries serial number A2839436, identifying
it as a period Model A engine produced in 1930.Rather than being
represented as a factory Ford station wagon, this Model A features
a custom Depot Hack-style wood body constructed by its previous
owner. The woodwork has since been redone and presents beautifully,
complemented by a refreshed interior, black fenders and running
boards, traditional wire wheels, and a period-style fabric roof.
The open-sided configuration captures the distinctive appearance of
the early depot hacks that were used to transport passengers and
luggage between railway stations, hotels and other destinations.For
improved modern-day usability, the electrical system has been
converted to 12-volt negative ground and fitted with an alternator
while retaining the vintage appearance and driving experience that
make a Model A so enjoyable.With its warm wood finish, classic Ford
mechanicals and distinctive open-air configuration, this 1929 Ford
Model A Custom Depot Hack offers a fun and approachable way to
enjoy early American motoring. It would make an excellent choice
for local shows, parades, cruises, promotional use or simply
enjoying a piece of Model A-era character with a unique
custom-built presentation.1929 Ford Model A Custom Depot HackFord
