"Ready to Rumble"

GR Auto Gallery is please to present this all steel, high quality 1930 Ford Model A Coupe street rod. This is built using an authentic Dearborn body and was built in class rod fashion utilizing the front i-beam style axle with gash shocks, power wheel power brakes, coil over front suspension and solid rear axle. The cabin area has been chopped approximately 3 inches to lower the roofline of the car.

The motor is a 302 Ford V8 professionally prepared by Roush Performance engineering, power is transferred by a C6 automatic transmission and applied by a Ford 9” rear end. Other highlights include: Ididit tilt steering column, forged aluminum wheels, steel flared fenders and running boards, Ford Racing aluminum heads, GT steering wheel, Lokar shifter, custom headers and Flomaster exhaust.

The car is finished in Raven Black exterior paint. The body exhibits excellent panel fit and overall high-quality workmanship. The exterior paint remains deep and glossy with no noticeable chips, scratches or major imperfections. The car was completed approximately 15 years ago and the restoration still stands tall with no shrinkage which is a testimony to the quality of the work.

The frame and underside have been restored to the same level as the rest of the car. It appears structurally excellent, clean, and detailed. Modern suspension componentry is visible along with new grommets, hardware, bushings, etc. throughout. The interior is fully upholstered, the painted dash is excellent and the white-faced gauges are a good compliment in appearance and function.

The engine and engine bay area are clean and appear as new. The motor has been properly dressed with high quality componentry throughout.

Mechanically, this is one of the best performing and well balanced street rods of this era that have graced the floor of the GR Auto Gallery. The motor is powerful and complimented by a proper stall converter. It starts easy, it seems to have the perfect cam set up with just the right amount of lump, it has a good consistent idle, it does not lurch and stall in tight garage or parking maneuvers, and it has a smooth, powerful take off once the throttle is punched. The steering and suspension are tight and braking is smooth. A professional build that gives confidence to the driver.

Driven just 692 miles since completion, this 1930 Ford Model A Rumble Seat Street Rod is dialed in and ready to show and go. It is titled as a 1930 Ford Model A with the original VIN of the car.
