Daniel Jorndt MotoeXotica Classic Cars presents a one-of-a-kind custom hot rod in our showroom. Our pristine 1934 Ford custom hot rod (Cabriolet replica) was purchased by former Walgreens CEO L. Daniel Jorndt. The car is still titled in his name and coincides with his retirement from the pharmacy giant in 2003. The body of this hot rod is based off the Ford Model B. The Model B wasn’t just an improvement for Henry Ford; it was a completely new model launched in 1932. The Model B marked a milestone in American automotive history: the Flathead V8 engine was standard, making it the first mass-produced V8 motor available. At the time of production, Ford had 32 U.S. plants from Florida to Oregon. Changes to the 1934 make of the Model B were a flatter grille, smaller headlights and a redone logo. The horsepower was increased to a then-whopping 85. There were 14 body styles available to the ’34 Model B. Deluxe models had pinstriping, dual chrome horns and twin backlights. The interior was upgraded with more wood graining. While having the Holy Grail of ‘30s Fords would be a feat in itself, MotoeXotica has your opportunity to own a custom Ford hot rod in excellent overall condition with our latest showroom addition: a 1934 Ford custom hot rod (Cabriolet replica). Under the hood of this hot rod is a 350-CID crate motor capable of producing 300 HP. The tires are matching center-lined radial Hoosiers. Jorndt retired in January 2003, and this title of this car has his purchase date of May 17, 2003. Could this have been a retirement gift for Jorndt? Now, it has found its way to our showroom in St. Louis where it waits for its next owner. The front tire specs are: 25x7.5 R15; rear is 25x12.5 R15. This will help you coast down an open stretch of road on a sunny afternoon or at a calm twilight. The transmission is automatic, and only 800 miles have been traveled since new! The exterior is a fiberglass body and the color is a gorgeous two-tone Root Beer and Sandstone with a tasteful pinstripe that looks like it was done yesterday. The pinstriping adds a little personality to this hot rod. Both vinyl hard and soft cloth tops are included and in excellent condition for this hot rod. Both are matching in color, and the boot fits snugly for the soft top should a driver want to let the sunshine in on a brisk afternoon drive. The rear end is a Ford 9 inch. There are suicide doors, standard for a ’34 Model B body. The dual chrome headlights are the correct ones for a ’34 Ford as well. The high quality Sandstone vinyl seats are custom tailored for this vehicle, and the gauges are Dolphin. These Dolphin gauges measure the oil pressure, water temperature, odometer, fuel and volts. The modern interior compliments the updated yet retro exterior. There is vintage A/C as well if you’re partial to warmer climates. This astounding custom street rod can be yours thanks to MotoeXotica. VIN is L4131, and it is titled as a 2002 Cabriolet. GET OUT AND DRIVE!
