Details

This 1934 Ford Phaeton custom convertible wears original Henry Ford steel and has undergone a complete professional frame-off restoration with attention to detail. It is powered by a GM 350ci V8 engine with aluminum Brodix heads and a B&M blower with four Mikuni carburetors. It has a rebuilt Turbo 400 3-speed automatic transmission turning a C3 Corvette rear end. This Phaeton street rod is a complete professional build that started with a rust-free body and original Ford steel. The engine compartment is trimmed out with many chrome and machined aluminum components. It features a Walker radiator with two electric fans, Triton chrome power starter, polished stainless-steel headers and exhaust, stainless brake lines and fittings with a Monte Carlo front disc brake kit featuring C3 Corvette rear calipers and stainless pucks, and Posie front and rear springs. All of the suspension components have been chromed or polished. There is wiring throughout, a polished stainless gas tank, and stainless-steel bumpers and bumper guards. Finished in a DuPont Pitch Black acrylic enamel, it sits on four special-built Dayton wire wheels wrapped in Michelin tires with two identical spares on either side of the car. The highly detailed interior features upholstery and carpet, rebuilt original oil, gas, AMP, temp and speedometer gauges, a Jennie shifter and hand brake and a banjo steering wheel. The convertible top has oak wood bows and a rear window. Luggage rack is mounted with chromed brackets, and the chassis has been sandblasted, boxed and painted. All parts were new at the time of restoration.
