1930 FORD MODEL A CUSTOM WOODY

Details

This is a custom-built all-steel Ford Model A Street-Rod. This museum collector is the result of a very high-quality professional complete rotisserie frame-off restoration. Starting with a bare frame, an endless supply of funds helped complete the labor of love for this 5-year build. Body is fabricated from solid hard maple. All joints are box joints, giving the body maximum strength. Many body modifications include 2' chop on top, windshield laid back 2-3/4', steel fenders, running boards and

splash aprons all welded-in seams and filed, 32 steel grill shell, Hagan one-piece hood and removable smooth hood side panels. Hood is hinged to open from the left or right. It can be removed completely to reveal an impressive Ford stroker engine. Doors are suicide-hinged for easy access in and out. Windshield is hinged to open if desired. Door windows slide down for easy operation. 32 Ford steel dash is loaded with instrumentation; speedo, tach, oil pressure, water temp, volt meter, fuel level and dual fuel tanks operated by a toggle switch below the dash, Lokar emergency brake located between the bucket seats and Mohave heater.
