1930 Ford Model A 5 window coupe

Pay attention people as this is a great opportunity for a real deal steel 5 window coupe that has had a professional chop done, roof filled and frame work completed.
I am listing this for a good friend so here are the items I was made aware of:

Frame has been boxed
Hydraulic clutch and brake pedals and masters installed
Front suspension has a chrome drilled super-bell axle with chrome hairpins and chrome shocks
Steering by way of a Vega box with new components. Steering is nice and tight. Has a factory style GM colume.
Rear suspension is a Chevy early 60's style rear that has been rebuilt with all new drum brake components.
Even has new white wall tires and rears are studded snows! Think of the sparky burnouts!

Body is all steel with no signs of ever having rust.
Roof has been professionally filled and chopped. All garnish moldings also cut down and chromed.
Fenders and running boards all very clean straight steel.
Has steel floor pans and two different firewalls for your engine preference.
Trunk lid appears to be new. Lid and doors open and shut properly.
Hood is painted yellow with ghost flames and in really nice shape.
Has an aluminum fuel cell perfectly fit to the trunk.
Body is mounted to chassis properly and all loose items will be inside or attached for shipping. Car rolls easy.
Also comes with new chrome bumpers and brackets.

This is an excellent project, only selling as he has too many projects at this point and needs to focus on getting some things done.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to get an extremely clean 5 window with all the right mods done as the foundation for your project. This is not a junky ratrod and reserve is reflective of this. Please bid what you are willing to pay and I promise it will be fun and a worth while purchase.

Please feel free to ask questions if you need to. One thing I need to mention is being the body is on the frame I am unable to confirm the vin stamped on frame is a match. It does come with a title which I assume is correct I just needed to disclose this.

Good luck everyone and happy bidding.

Hello and thank you all for the great response and questions. One of the main questions was the chop...it has been chopped 4".
When considering this car please take into account how much time this starting point will save you overall and how clean and solid your car will be. Not only will it give you piece of mind it will also recapture your investment down the road when you show that you didn't start with a bastard. At 85 years old, she shows extremely well for her age. Best of luck.

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?

Thu, Jun 23 2016

The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectivelyÂ— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
