1930 Model A Ford Rumble Seat 5-window Coupe Street Rod
My goal was to build a Resto-Rod style street rod. I wanted it to look fairly close to an original Model A, ut with an updated engine and drivetrain. I'm not too much into lots of chrome, nd fancy engines and such. I wanted a vehicle that I could drive to work, ot for a show car or trailer queen. I was also aiming for total Ford engine & drivetrain, nd almost got there with the exception of the front rotors (Chevy). The vehicle is titled as a 1930, ut does have some distinctive '31 features.

Need to finish:
Complete Upholstery - there is a bench seat from a Dodge Caravan, nd I have the springs for the rumble seat, ith some basic material to go over the springs. (I have 5 yards of Whisper Marine Grade Blue Upholstery)
Windshield Wiper & Motor Installed (I have this, ut needs to be installed)
Needs Ahooga Horn (I do not have the horn)
I'm glad to answer any & all questions. You are welcome to come see the vehicle in person during the course of the auction. The winner of this auction is entering into a contractual agreement to purchase. The winner DOES NOT get to come view the car AFTER the auction and decide then if he really want it. Sounds funny to even mention, ut I had that happen to me a few years ago. Consequently, he $2000 deposit is non-refundable for any reason.
