This sweet Model A coupe is exceptionally well-executed with a two inch roof chop, and with its custom suspension, reliable Flat head V-8 and smooth color combination, is a ground-up build that combines the core strengths of old school hot rodding with top-notch modern components.
During a thorough, no excuses build starting with the body, the metal was prepared and layered in a deep green exterior with contrasting tan firewall. It was upgraded with a steel deuce grill metal ’32 metal grill shell to surround the Walker radiator. The fuel tank and the battery have been relocated to the trunk for safety and weight reasons. Modern day sealed headlamps with directional signals for modern safety without sacrificing the classic stance. The contrasting tan Lebarron Bonney cloth top is in excellent condition.
Inside, the seats are finished in a deep dark brown vinyl with a gold textured carpet. The door panel mirrors the same rich brown finish as the seats. Sporting a 1932 dash which presents a period look, but allows a full bank of modern VDO gauges. The “quick release” steering wheel is a nice touch (for the horizontally challenged). By now it’s probably pretty obvious this Ford was built to be seen, but, thanks to the nicely built Ford flat head under this car’s steel hood, that might be easier said than done! Comes complete with removable steel side curtains.
This nostalgic 30’s hot rod comes with a Ford 8BA flat head V8 engine, Edelbock aluminum heads, Thickstun high rise aluminum intake with dual carburetors, custom “One Eye Crow” headers, 1939 Ford 3-speed manual transmission, stock model A rear differential with 3.78 gears, Walker radiator, drop axle front,1940 juice hydraulic brakes and Wilwood master cylinder. It stands on staggered 16 inch black painted steelies shod with Firestone deluxe Champion tires.
Movies like American Graffiti and Two Lane Blacktop, have shown and inspired many people to build some gorgeous hot-rods over the years. Many of the great ones, like this one were based on the iconic ‘31 Ford. The build quality is fantastic, allowing convenience and comfort of a modern car, wrapped in a cool, old school package. It goes fast, stops fast and looks awesome doing it.
These Coupes are becoming increasingly hard to find in such solid well kept condition. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!
