Details

This stunning 1930 all steel Henry Ford Highboy roadster is a work of art and engineering. The attributes of this awesome roadster begin with a TCI Roadster Chassis with a 4' chrome drop front suspension, followed by rack & pinion steering, Heidts Pro 6 independent rear suspension, coilovers and disc brakes at all four corners. The chassis has a custom 7' frame stretch in front of the firewall to accommodate the notorious Ford 428/425hp Super Cobra Jet stroker big block engine that is polished, ported, balanced and blueprinted with state-of-the-art competition parts. The engine build included an Eagle Stroker Crank, Cobra Jet ribbed block, screw-in freeze plugs, oil galley porting and 14-bolt Ford GT Ported heads. Fuel is delivered to this monster thru a Jim Inglese Weber 8-stack custom polished carburation system. A complete file with photos documents the entire engine build and testing of the engine is included. The Cobra Jet is then dressed with a Tough Stuff chrome water pump, alternator and a CVF Racing serpentine pulley system and is cooled thru an all-aluminum Griffin Performance radiator system with aluminum shroud and electric fans. It has a Sanderson custom 4' header and exhaust system which has been powder coated. Power is transferred through a custom-built C6 High-Performance racing transmission built to handle 800hp. For traction and style, this roadster rides on American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich G Force Comp A/S tires. The build included many custom body modifications including a flush mounted fuel door, custom rear hatch, and a hand-formed all-aluminum polished wind screen. The roadster was finished in a custom two-tone two-stage paint with adjacent pinstriping. The interior is complimented by a Dakota Digital elliptical gauge cluster, Lokar shifter and pedals, Ididit steering column, leather wrapped banjo steering wheel, custom leather seats and door panels, along with German square weave carpeting.
