1929 Ford Model A Totally Professionally Restored on 2040-cars

Hi, I’m selling my fully restored 1929 Model A Ford because it is time to downsize.   This car was my late wife’s favorite (she named it Harrison Ford) and she often drove it in parades and for Sunday drives. I bought it in 2000 for $6000 and over the next six years spent $71,000 having it restored by a professional (paperwork included in sale).  I wanted a dependable driving car. 

First the car was stripped to the frame and the frame straightened and trued, then the following were replaced: the fenders, headlights, correct cloth covered wiring (with a fuse added for protection), headlight bar, radiator, radiator shell, radiator rock protector, running boards, roof, roof oak supports, bumpers, tail lights (another light added to rear fender), safety windshield and door glass, upholstery (leBaron Bonney), new wood floor, hot water fed heater installed, new instruments, new steering wheel, new shocks, new brakes, new heavy, duty cast-iron brake drums, brake floaters, tires, tubes, wheels, lug nuts, transmission rebuilt with synchronized second and third gears, rear end rebuilt with higher gearing, hood, gas tank cleaned and resealed, Weber downdraft carburetor, new headers, new exhaust, electric fuel pump, new fan, fuel filter, leak-less water pump, new alternator, battery, headlamp bulbs are halogen, electronic ignition, engine (1930) rebuilt by previous owner but I had the restoration mechanic tear it down to check it, steering pitman arm shortened, added noise suppression installed, plate underneath the car to keep the passenger’s legs from feeling exhaust heat, new steering gear (so my wife could easily steer it), turn signals added, tachometer, oil pressure, water temperature gauges added, battery cutoff switch installed.  I left it a six-volt system but it could easily be changed over to 12-volts, new windshield wiper (electric). The car was painted to match original paint and the pin stripping was done by hand. I guess it is easier to say that just about the only thing on this car that is original to 1929 is the metal body.  The insurance company told me that it could be classified as a hot rod.  It starts easily, and runs well.  It will easily go faster than 60 but with the large wheels and high center of gravity I keep it at 50 to 55. It will stop quickly and could be a daily driver.  I think you could drive this car for long distances if you wanted. It doesn’t overheat in a hot July parade. The doors close perfectly and it has door locks.  It has seatbelts, wind wings.  Well, there’s not much more I could have done to it except switch it over to a 12-volt system.  

It does have some minor paint chips and flaws because I live on a ranch a mile and a half from a blacktop road.  It is kept in a heated garage and never driven if there is a cloud in the sky. I have a logbook with it.  It looks like a stock, beautiful, 1929 car but it is dependable and basically trouble free.  A leather-covered trunk comes with it and the little American flags so you can drive it in the July 4^th parade – I always do. If you are looking for a car that you can spend many happy hours beating out dents in the fenders or if you like rewrapping the water pump with string on the way to Sunday lunch while your wife gives you the “ray”, or you enjoy the smell of gas dripping from a 1929 carburetor, then this car is NOT for you.  I will be happy to answer any questions.  I could deliver it for expenses within 500 miles or so of Hysham, Montana.  I have put 3430 miles on it since its restoration was completed in 2006.
