1929 Ford Model A Sedan Delivery Hot Rod

This is an excellent example of a 1929 Ford Model A deluxe sedan delivery that has been lovingly modified from a 2 door sedan to a sedan delivery using a Gibbon Body Kit to a very drivable street rod. Built over 10 years ago with a refresh of the paint and pinstriping 5 years ago this car is visually attractive and is a joy to drive. The car has only 1,538 miles since the build and all of those miles were make while attending car club events and car shows. This car has won a number of show awards yet it is not a show car.

The owner of this car passed away 2 years ago and his wife has asked me to help sell one of his most prized possessions. The car has been stored indoors since his death and a club member got it out, cleaned and running for this sale. The information provided is as accurate as possible with the understanding that I am not a professional but fellow club member and a friend of the family. Please call my cell if you wish to discuss or have any questions at 707-246-2686.
