Ford : Model A pickup 1929 Ford Model A Flathead 4-71 blower Hot Rat Rod Picture(s) and Description:

1929 Ford Model A Hot Rod with 4-71 blower on a flathead I'm selling my hot rod. It's time for me to move on to my next project. 99% of the construction was done by me and I can answer any questions you have. Here is a run down of what this truck is all about. *The chassis: Stock A rails, step boxed. Inverted in the front with the horns pointing up for the suicide spring mount. Box tubing K member 10" Z in the rear. Front end is '39 Ford axle/bones with buggy spring. '55 Buick brakes with '40 Ford drums. Rear end is a 60's Ford truck 9" with ladder bars and a Model A rear spring mounted over the axle. Steering is a Schroeder Sprint box with a shortened pitman arm. Tires are Coker Firestone gum dipped 6.00-16 fronts and 7.50-16 rears. Drive train: French flathead with 4" crank. Internally stock. 4-71 blower with home built intake and drive running 2 V belts for that traditional look. 2 Rebuilt Stromberg 97 carbs. Chevy small block point distributor cut down for a flathead, with a pertronix electronic ingition. Rebuilt Chevy S-10 T-5 (5 speed) transmission. Denny's driveshaft. Alternator is mounted to the rear axle. It begins charging almost immediately after you start moving. It runs off a belt on the driveshaft. *Body: Ross Forklift grill. Giant Glo-lite headlights with halogen conversion. Cab is chopped 3 1/2". The chop is all out of the header above the windshield and below the rear window. Windshield and rear window are stock height. The cab is lengthened 3 1/2" by cutting and adding to the doors. The bed has been shortened 10". I added a glove box into the stock gas tank on the passenger side, see picture. The roof is simple black canvas and is removable. It snaps on like a tonnou cover. Take it off for topless cruising. The visor is currently off the truck, but is included, and shown in a picture. *Other: I drive this a lot. It has approx 20,000 miles in 4 years. It has always been very dependable and gets decent gas milage. In the summer time it is my daily driver. It has a clear title, titled as a 1929 Ford pickup. It has laminated safety glass all around, the door glass rolls up and down and the windshield opens as stock. It is reasonably fast for a flathead and a lot of fun to drive. It also had a 2 page feature in the Spring 2008 issue of Hot Rod Deluxe. The seat was recently recovered in basic black vinyl. The body work isn't perfect and the paint has a little orange peel here and there but it is still very presentable and the paint still shines. It also has its share of minor rock chips from driving, just like any fender-less hot rod. The speedometer is not working, but the tach is calibrated. The rear main seal drips a couple times after driving. I wouldn't hesitate to jump in and drive this anywhere, and I do on a regular basis. This wasn't built just to sell, I've been enjoying it for the last 4 years and it is time to get my next project going. I've driven this on several 500-600 mile road trips with no issues at all. It runs cool and has great oil pressure. I live in a small town in Northern California so if you are into getting attention with a new hot rod, this one hasn't already made the rounds of all the hot rod scenes. If you do that, just give me a little credit. Prior to you taking delivery the signage on the doors, the Rusty Nuts club plaque, and HAMB Alliance plaque will be removed. Once paid in full I can provide free indoor storage for 30 days. Longer term storage is available for $3 per day. I will work with your car shipper at my location, but arrangements and cost are all up to you. I have set a very modest reserve and will not disclose the amount. Bid early and often and bid to own. Someone is going to get a fun and reliable hot rod that isn't just like every other belly button out there. Thanks in advance but I am not interested in any trades. I'm sure I forgot something so contact me with any questions or for specific picture shots. Thanks.
