1929 Ford Roadster, Flathead, 1932 Ford, hotrod

Description

Here’s your chance to own a high-quality traditional hot rod with as much style as attention to detail. Starting with a reproduction Brookville Model A Roadster body draped over a genuine 1932 Ford frame. Unsplit 1932 Ford wishbones keep track of the 1932 Ford front axle. Suspending this Model A is a 1940 Ford rear spring out back and a Posies 2-inch drop super slider in the front. Bringing this roadster to a stop is a set of 1940 Ford brakes fore and aft. This all sits on a pair of 1940 Ford 16-3.5 and 18-inch Devco wheels, respectively wrapped in 5.50-16 and 7.00-18 Firestone rubber.
Moving it along is a 1949 Mercury flathead V8 bored 0.060 over stock. Early Navarro heads contain combustion. Feeding the engine is a pair of Holley 94 carburetors sitting atop a Thickston PM-7 intake manifold. An Isky 400 Jr. camshaft actuates the valves. The engine is mated to a 1938 Lincoln Zephyr transmission, which feeds a 1940 Ford rear axle.
The interior features a narrowed 1938 Lincoln Zephyr dashboard, 1937 Lincoln Zephyr steering wheel and a custom-made bench seat. The Zephyr steering wheel controls a Ford F1 steering box. You look through a 5.5-inch chopped windshield frame, with a similarly chopped folding top covering you in bad weather. Lighting your way down the road is a pair of NOS BLC headlamps are held in place by a custom headlight bar that was chrome plated. The black finish has been rubbed through to give it an aged look, with all of the protection of a new paint job.
The car is located in Indianapolis, Indiana and runs and drives well. If you have any questions contact Alex Steelsmith at 765-894-1764.
