Up for auction is my 1927 Ford Model T Rat Rod. In all honesty i really hate to sell this car but i am just plain out of room and have another one of my cars coming home from paint soon so i am going to put a couple things up for sale this being one of them. This is not your typical pyle of junk thrown together rat rod, this is a very well thought out and quality built car that is actually registered and titled as what it is a 1927 Ford Model T. To Start of with the Chassis and roll cage were custom built by a well know fabrication shop in southern california that specializes in building baja race cars,trophy trucks, pre runners as well as full chassis drag cars The frame is made of 2' by 3" box tubing and the cage is 1 1/2" dom tubing.The body does have rust and dents but it is supposed to it's a rat rod,it could still stand to have some finish welding done on the chop or can be driven as is. The body is 100% original steel no fiberglass crap here! As far as running gear goes the engine is a 1969 429 Ford Cobra that is mild motor with hydraulic cam 10:1 compression a vintage offenhauser tunnel ram with new dual holley 500 cfm mechanical secondary carbs and a vintage Joe Hunt Magneto with mechanical tach, We recently sent the magneto out to Joe Hunt and had the internal all refurbished,custom built headers that have had rinehart motorcyle baffells installed.The Transmission is a C6 that has also been recently rebuilt and has kevlar clutch packs,the transmisson cooler lines were hand built out of cooper tubbing and are one solid line no unions in them to leak. the rear end is a 9" with 3.55 gears and a spool.It has alluminum 10 gallon fuel tank in the trunk as well as electric fuel pump with a aeromotive fuel pressure regulator with fuel pressure guage. The battery is also located in the trunk as well. The rear wheels are real vinatage american racing wheels with hurst DOT approved drag tires.Up front is a set of Radir spindle mount wheels wraped with motorcycle tires, The front wheels also have previsions for disk brakes if you wanted to install them down the road. As it sits the car only has rear brakes but they provide plenty of stopping power for the car. Front suspension has 4" drilled dropped axle, the rear suspenion is 4 linked with coil over shocks.New aluminum radiator with electric fan. You can drive this car anywhere it always runs cool.It has a very nice reproduction '32 Ford grill in it.The headlights are 1940 chevy with original lenses and updated halogen bulbs in them. The interior was done by a local shop here in town using a real cow hide for the seat. The throttle pedal is an old offenhauser pedal,quick release steering wheel.This is without a doubt the funnest car i have ever owned.It's funny but this car actually gets more attention then my friends lamborghini.Please realize that this in no luxury car by any means, it does not have a heater or a/c, or heated seats! It also does not have seat belts or turn signals but i have driven the car over to the coast and back about 160 miles each way. Serious bidders only please! if you do not have the means to pay do not bid.
