1930 Ford Model A Additional Info:
1930 Model A Ford Gasser. This is a real car. Last raced in 1968. Commonly seen at Bluegrass Dragway in Lexington KY. Also ran at Thorn Hill Dragway, Clay City, and Manchester. Last raced in 1968 and has sat since then in Winchester KY. The top of the engine was taken apart and components lent to friends with other racing quests. Most notably Ken Lowe of Australia drag racing fame.
Engine is a 1965 Chevrolet 327. Block and heads check out to be fullie parts. Heads are 461s. Cannot read stamp on deck surface for original application of block. I have not had the heads off. The engine spins but it's dirty inside. Had all of the best speed equipment from the 60s. Hilborn, Moon, Iskenderian, Edelbrock, Elco, and B&MTransmission is a 4sp Hydro. Probably a B&M hydro stick conversion. Rear end is a 57 Chev P case. Rear tire are the original M&H racemasters. Story has it that these were the first 10 inch slicks in KY. These exact tires were once tried out on the famously restored Rebel Rouser out of Winchester KY. Rear wheels are custom widened to accept the racemasters and front wheels are magnesium Americans.
The body is Ford steel with exception of front fenders and grill shell. Overall the body is in very good condition. Interior is partially finished. Tin work is created from HVAC metal. This is the metal that what was on hand in the mid 60s. The roof has been filled and it's a nice job. Windows are blued plexiglass.
This is a original race car from the 60s. It has seen many different changes through the years resulting in this. Car was built in Winchester KY and remained there it's entire life. It's has been shown only twice at a major events, Melt Down Drags 2017 and Moonshine Fest 2017. People would literally stop in their tracks at first glimpse of this awesome car.
