Description for Ford Model A 1929

SCROLL DOWN FOR DETAILED PICTURES AND VIDEOS!!!!Up for auction is a freshly built 1929 Ford Model A. This car was built by Altered Image Motorsports in three and a half months. It was debuted at Detroit Autorama 2015 and we took home the Young Gun Award. I have put just over 550 miles on the car in the past 10 days and it has been a blast. This car is very fun to drive and tends to get attention out on the roads. It was built to be driven and that is what you can do with it. The car runs comfortably down the expressway at 70-75 mph at about 2500 RPM's. This was a hole themed build with holes in the frame rails. radius arms. headlight stantions. grill shell. front spring mount. motor mounts. axle. visor. seats. shifter handle. gas and brake pedals. roof support bars and door panel accent. I did tons of bead rolling and dimple dieing on the interior and exterior. The list of aftermarkets and one off parts for this build go on and on. I am 6' tall and I fit in the car very comfortably. With the driver seat being adjustable for someone from 5'6''-6'3''. Here are some of the great features. Exterior:This car was chopped 4'' and channeled 1 1/2''. The exterior was ground down and clear coated with 3 coats of semi gloss clear. The car was an original rumble seat car so the deck lid still latches with the original handle but I did use different hinges. The front grill insert was a main focal point on the car and the tac welded wings also match the seats. The body is in pretty good shape as you can see from the pictures. I didn't fix any dings or dents but I did fix the major rust. Still has some old brazed in spots here and there that I thought gave it a ton of character. The doors open and close nicely and latch with the factory style latches. I used 1''x1'' steel tubing for the roof support and drilled holes in all of them as well. We just had a nice black vinyl top made that you can snap to keep the weather off you. Some other little things consist of tear drop tail lights with smoked lenses. license plate light. and Sylvania Extra Vision headlights. Chassis / Suspension:The frame is custom built 2''x4'' that is Z'd front and rear. The front frame rails start at the firewall as 2''x8'' and taper out to 2''x4'' with holes that step down from 7'' to 3 1/2''. All seams have been plated in 1/4'' plate and it is X'd under the body. This is set up with the suicide front axle just to give it the right look and stance. The front axle is a 4'' Drilled Superbell drop axle. Superbell spring. one off hole themed radius arms. Ford 8. 8 rear axle. triangulated 4 link on adjustable coil overs. This is 4 wheel disc brakes with a limited slip carrier and 2. 86 gear. Rear axle is rebuilt with all new Timkin bearings and seals. Front steering stabilizer shock and front hardpan bar. Also all the frame and suspension pieces that are are not bare metal are done in POR 15 Chassis gloss black paint. All wiring. brake lines and fuel lines are nicely routed and secured to the frame for a clean look. Motor / Transmission:This has a Crate motor 355 Chevy Small block with a Big Mutha Thumper Cam. hardened pushrods. Meling High Volume oil pump. deep 7 quart oil pan. Comp Cam double roller timing chain. billet timing cover. billet finned valve cover and double shotgun air cleaner. polished intake. Edlebrock 600 cfm manual choke carb. K&N air filter. Weiand aluminum water pump. billet braided oil dip stick. chrome high pressure fuel pump. heavy duty flywheel. 3 HP mini starter. nbsp; 2'' Gilmer belt drive kit. HEI distributor. black 9. 5 mm plug wires. Holley fuel pressure regulator and -6AN fuel lines with black fittings. As for the transmission it is a rebuilt Turbo 400 with a 3200-3500 stall converter. adjustable vacuum module. billet braided tranny dipstick. and billet tranny cooler mounted under the body. The cam sounds great at idle. under load and moving it around. The trans shifts nice and smooth like a new car. The headers were built for the car out of 1 7/8'' tubing. with a 3 1/2''x9'' baffled muffler after the collector and into turn down tips. Car sounds great. Wheels / Tires:The tires are Coker Firestones and these are Bias ply. The rear tires are the 8. 20-15 Firestone Gum dipped Dragster slicks. As for the fronts they are the 6. 70-15 Firestone Vintage. All four tires are tubeless. The rims are all made by Wheel Vintiques and are a series 12 smoothie. Rear rims are 15x8 and fronts are 15x5. New chrome lug nuts. Interior:One of the main focal points on the interior is the reworked 1956 Ford Dash. The interior has a ton of bead rolling on the floor. tunnel. door panels. nbsp; inner quarter panels. and seats. Some other little parts are vintage Dolphin gauges (speedometer. volts. temp. . oil and fuel). LED turn signal and high beam indicators. cigarette lighter. glove box with locking button. Grant wood grain steering with pull off adapter for easy access. sheet metal bomber seats and the driver seat is on adjustable tracks. black lap belts. and one off door panels to finish it off. This is all wired up with 6 panel fuse block and wiring has been heat shrinked. The doors. gas tank cowl and under side of tunnel have been in sound deadener to quite things up. OTHER:17 gallon fuel cell. Optima red top battery. marine style gas fill on driver quarter panel. tinted lexan back 3 windows. windshield and door glass is real glass.

This runs. shifts. and stops great. The car rides really good for the style build it is and it impressed me the first time I took it out. This is clean titled as a 1929 Ford Model A Coupe.
