 The Body is a steel 1929 Ford Model A coupe. I chopped it 4.5" and I channeled the body 2.75". I also put a metal roof on it!

The steering is a new reverse corvair steering box with traditional steering. quick release steering wheel for ease of getting in and out of the vehicle.

The dash is out of a 1951 Oldsmobile. I cut approximately 13" out of this dash to make it fit. The Gauge cluster is just cosmetic. I have a gps mounted in the car for speedometer and odometer. the gps was reset when I finished the car. every mile driven is recorded!

It has a 4r70w automatic transmission with overdrive. it is shifted by a B&M shifter. A manual Valve body was installed to eliminate the computer.

The 4.6 SOHC engine runs great and smooth! The short block is a NPI out of a Lincoln. The PI heads are off of a 2000 mustang gt. This combination bumps up the compression ratio. I just put $800.00 into putting trick flow cams, new upgraded valve springs and timing chains in it. It has a carbureted Edelbrock intake with a 600 edelbrock carb. It also has 8 cop`s for ignition. The ignition system is controlled by MSD MOD 6. Very easy system to work with and tune the car! The tuning parameters are endless for this setup! Very expensive setup. starts and runs great everytime!

The rear end is out of a 1979 Lincoln. It is a disk brake 9". It has a 2.70 gear ratio. Cruises 65 mph at 1050 rpm! I built this car to be very reliable and to get good gas mileage. I average close to 40 MPG with it!

The STOP light in the back has been upgraded with a 6" led light inside of it for maximum visibility and safety. When the brakes are pressed all the brake lights come on. NO TURNSIGNALS! stick your arm out! The Trunk lid is held down by custom leather belt straps made by my wife! She antiqued them and they work and look great! Lots of comments about them everywhere we go!! I made a custom license plate bracket that will stay on the car.

the front end is a 6" drop tube axle with disk brakes. It has a pan hard, shocks, spring behind and steering stabilizer! Handles GREAT!

It has 15" steel wheels with NOS wide whitewalls in perfect condition! 1300 miles on them and you cant even tell it! they are bias ply polyester tires. 50`s era hubcaps!

It has a Griffin race radiator fitted for a FORD Model A grill shell! I have a electric fan with thermostat on it. The fan works great! tested it once but the car never gets hot enough for it to even come on!

I made all the coolant lines out of copper and it works and looks cool!

I built a custom set of headers for it that will come with the car. I just wanted the exhaust system all the way out the back! Personally the headers I built look better on the car! I put 4" motorcycle baffles in each primary tube to quiet it down. I also header wrapped them!

I built the frame in a jig. It is a 2x3 3/16"  rectangular steel frame. 4" kick up in the front. 16" kickup in the back! 2" drop Model a front crossmember. very strong frame! all joints were welded and on top of that gusseted!

If the Buyer wishes then I can sand off my door art, repaint the door and have it ready for you to put your own door art on it!

For the seats?? well its a rat rod! I have bottom cushions made for it and you rest your back on the rear interior panel! its actually comfortable! im 6` tall and 230 lbs and I fit perfect! I built it for bigger people. If you`re shorter then you could put a seat in it putting you closer to the pedals and steering wheel.

I have one marine 6" speaker in it hooked to a amplifier. I hooked a ipod hook up to the amplifier also. It is plenty loud! very clean set up.

I am using the original gas tank in the car! it holds 10 gallons of gas. I have a carter electric fuel pump on it to transfer fuel to the carb. at close to 40 mpg you can travel pretty far!

Be ready though, I cant drive this car anywhere and expect to leave soon! I get stopped by people all the time to look at it! I have got more thumbs up since I finished this car than I ever have seen!!!

I recently put a new interior in the car. my wife and I made all the panels and sewed them ourselves!

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions! This is a great car and it wont be for sale for long!
