This is a 1929 Ford Model A Sport Coupe. It's traditional style is what you'd expect to see in the 40's or 50's built by returning servicemen after the war with lots of imagination, skill, creativity and a need for speed, it's been upgraded with a strong 1969 Chevy 327 with a lumpy cam, TH350 automatic trans with a Lokar shifter, and a rear axle from a '57 Chevy. Chevy drivetrain in a Ford....the best of both worlds! It also has Weld Engineering finned front drum brakes, a rare and wicked cool Edelbrock X-1 6-pack intake manifold with six Ford script carbs, Cal Custom finned valve covers, '40 Ford steel wheels, split front bones, a Walker radiator, a fully boxed Model A frame, buggy rear spring, Pete & Jakes ladder bars, lakes style headers, '36 Ford dash, custom aluminum interior panels, a chopped custom made aluminum riveted (not pop-rivets, these are aircraft grade aluminum rivets), custom aluminum rear fenders, and on and on and on. Headlights are from a 30's Cadillac and have been upgraded with halogen bulbs. I guarantee that you'll NEVER see another one like it. It's always the hit of the show wherever I drive this beauty. It's finished in a teal gray 2-stage urethane paint. Make no mistake, this is a real bare knuckle HOT ROD, not a creature-comfort-laden street rod or Cadillac. It runs and drives like a hot rod should: fast and furious and all business! It has it's share of chips and rash from "normal" driving, but it looks great and gets thumbs up galore. Don't expect a Ridler award winning hot rod for what I'm asking. Glass is all good, front windshield is nice and clear, swings out like the originals did (I guess that was Henry's concept of "air conditioning", lol. Door glass is great too, windows crank up and down but a little stiff. Might need some adjustment, but I only drive this car in beautiful weather so I leave them rolled down. All in all it's a great hot rod that gathers attention everywhere it rolls. It starts easily, runs great, stops and steers great, tires have plty of life left, and it sounds great too. Uncork the lakes headers and you'll wake the dead! I keep em corked and it's much quieter, or so the neighbors say.

The car is legally in my name, no liens. NYS does not issue titles to these old cars, they issue "transferable registrations", that's what I have and will sign over to the new owner. All legit and on the up and up. I'm a no nonsense eBayer, check my feedback to reassure yourself. Payment in full and cleared by my bank before this leaves my possession. Anyway, I'm sure I've left out some stuff, so feel free to ask. Selling to make room for a new project, so no trades.

Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.
