1929 Ford Sedan Delivery Street Rod

Description for Ford Model A 1929

This "Coca-Cola" Sedan Delivery was originally a Little John Buttera personal project. The current owner unfortunately passed away prior to the vehicles completion so it's up for sale.
It's a *RUNNING & DRIVING* car, that is in need of a full interior - save for the front bench. It is a *full* steel body.
The highlights of the vehicle chassis are:
It has had a full mechanical / chassis restoration and revamp by Rad Rides by Troy.
The chassis was completely gone through -

Fully independent front & rear suspension - Little John's front & rear setup making use of a C3 Corvette center section

Custom motor mounts made using OE bushings by Rad Rides.

All suspension & brake & chassis hardware was replaced with ARP fasteners.

Aurora Rod Ends throughout for the suspension

Wilwood calipers were rebuilt & texture coated black with new seals.

The brakes were converted to an ABS Power brake unit under dash with an underfloor master cylinder, using an electric vacuum pump and accumulator valve.

All new stainless hardlines & flex lines were bent up & installed as well.

The chassis was fully molded & smoothed and painted in a satin black by Rad Rides.

Suspension components were all gone through & rebuilt.

Everything was either painted by Rad Rides or powdercoated by Coating Specialties.

The upper coil over mounts were relocated to allow for a longer stroke coilover, in order to improve the ride by allowing for more suspension travel with a longer stroke ridetech coil over shock & taller spring.

The engine was relocated using custom fabricated engine mount brackets to make room for the rack & pinion setup.

Obviously, the chassis now also has a nonpower Rack & Pinion setup.

The drivetrain highlights are:

Street & Performance built LT1

Big Stuff 3 fuel injection with all new fuel lines, new pump, new tank, etc.

Turbo 350 transmission

custom fabricated aluminium fan shroud & electric fan by Rad Rides

custom modified street & performance accessory drive setup by Rad Rides

ceramic coated headers & dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers by Rad Rides

The rest of the vehicle is as follows :
The body was redone by Randazzo Auto Gallery a few years ago in green for the body & black for the fenders & running boards.
The underside of the body was texture coated black & smoothed by Rad Rides by Troy when the chassis work was done. There is a cork liner between the body & chassis.
The frame was painted satin black by Rad Rides.
The wiring harness is an all new Painless unit mounted under dash with an area in the kick panel that houses all the relays, breakers & main fuse buss for the vehicle. Everything is ran, routed & labeled.
The dash has Bomber Style gauges from Classic Instruments with all new sending units & a dash harness wire up by Rad Rides, along with a machine turned & blacked out gauge panel.
The side windows & rear window have been converted to power with switches on the door.
AM HotRod Glass on the side & rear windows.There is a modernized fuel filler neck with vented setup & remote released locking fuel door.There are custom made flush mount turn signals flushed into the grille.
The rear lights are custom fit in Rad Rides modified buckets with custom lighting
There is a tilt GM column
The ignition is on the dash in a Rad Rides machined housing for the light switches, AC controls, etc.
Fully dynamatted throughout. Under dash, roof skin, floor, tunnel, etc.


Obviously some of these pictures are when it was being put together but should give a good general idea of the quality of the vehicle.
It IS a running driving car. It just needs a full interior job.

To add to it, yes, the body has extension modifications. Rad Rides did not do the metal work, body work or paintwork on the exterior body.
The doors have hidden suicide hinges & bear claw style latches. The doors have been flush fit / rounded off as well. There is also a molded in visor. The modifications are too numerous to list and unfortunately both of the gentleman that could answer the full depth of the work done, have passed away. We do not believe the top has been chopped.
