sold. 1930 Ford Model A Roadster pickup - RPU Chassis, radiator surround, hood and engine are original FORD, Brookville body and bed. Clean LA title. Banger motor was built by Ron Kelley, insert bearings, big pistons, stromberg 97, makes about 60-70 hp and tons of torque. Has a 5-speed T5 transmission. Good for cruising at real world speeds. All top quality parts used in the build. Car was put together 2009 and then I pulled it apart a couple years ago to rework the firewall and paint the body. Drove it for 5 years in primer. Haven't taken the time to put it back together, so I thought it might be time to pass it along. Bring a trailer and cash. No trades.
Bump. Been letting this sit, thinking I'd get back to it... Maybe when the kids go off to college in 5 years... Until then, I'd like to have my garage space back. It really is a well put together car. Gets attention, but not too much. Most people have never seen a flathead, much less a banger. Open to offers. Have a couple bins of misc parts that will go with the sale as well.
Found the car again in my garage - has a new firewall installed, ready to finish and put back on the road..
