1929 Ford Model A Highboy Show/Drive California Registered with Pink Slip Custom Rear Sedan Delivery Door Black PPG Two-Stage w/ Candy Apple Flames Black-Gray Interior Custom Walnut Wood Ribbed Ceiling Ribbed Steel Top Professional Brand New Build 350 Small Block Corvette 700R Trans TCI Deuce Frame Everything New Gorgeous Body and Paint Sporting around our little “Spanish Village by the Sea” is a Hot Rod that was designed and built by one of our local legends, “Rib Trader” Rick. Over the years Rick has created one of San Clemente’s most legendary eateries and his taste in Automotive Hot Rodding is almost as good as his ribs. His classic custom painted flamed-out Yellow Panel Truck has graced our town and beaches for many years with his logo on the side. That little car is icon around these parts. Rick had been dreaming about building a Highboy for many years and one day with the help of Rays Automotive in San Clemente he got inspired to build it. When he and Ray laid out the plans for this ’29 Highboy he had two goals in mind: expressing his personal vision of what a hot rod should be and make it really FAST!!! The project started about three years ago with a real steel bodied 1929 Ford Model A Body. He married that with brand new TCI “Deuce” Rails made specifically for this build. Everything was put together to the highest quality and professionally built at Ray’s Automotive. The engine is a ’91 350 bored to 355. This was a no expense sparred creation that exudes quality; from the installation of a Custom Rear Sedan Delivery Door to the gorgeous Walnut Wood Ribbed Trim on the Ceiling and everything in between. This ride ROCKS. The Body wrap is a deep pale of stunning PPG Black 2 Stage Paint with Candy Apple Green Flames. The body work is very high-quality with a mirror like finish. You would be proud to show this baby at any rod meet anywhere in the Country. The car is sensational and has very limited miles since completion about a year ago. Here’s a list of what was done to this unique ride: 1929 Ford Model A Highboy with Real Steel Body with Pink Slip included Body Chopped 3” Ripped Steel Top (off Chevy Blazer S-10) Aluminum Windshield Frame Slight Tub for Wheel Clearance Custom Rear Sedan Delivery Door 4 Row Louvered ½ Hood (Rootlieb) ’32 Grill with Stainless Steel Insert Black PPG Two-Stage Paint (color sanded and buffed) Hot Rod Apple Green Pearl Flames Chassis Brand New Custom TCI Deuce Frame Dropped Chrome/Stainless Steel Front Axle Hairpin Front 4 Link Rear with Coil Overs All Chrome or Stainless Steel Stainless Steel Brake Lines Drive Train 1991 Small Block 350 Chevy Motor bored 355 1991 Corvette 350 700R w/ Hughes Converter 9” Ford Rear-End w/Positraction 3.50 10-1 TRW Flat Tops Edelbrock Performer RPM Cam Edelbrock Performer RPM Heads Edelbrock Polished 3X2 Manifold Edelbrock Fuel Pump 3 – 2 Barrel Rochester Carbs Mallory Pointless Ignition Chrome Gear Reduction Mini Starter Aluminum 3 Row Radiator Edelbrock Polished Water Pump Spal Fan Engine Fully Dressed and Polished Sanderson Zoomies w/Baffles Wheels & Tires Hot Rod Apple Green Spokes 8X15 Rears 6X15 Fronts Goodyear Eagles Disc Front / Drum Rear Brakes (SS Brake Lines) Lokar Emergency Brake Interior Custom Made Walnut Trim on Ceiling Black Interior Bucket Seats (Power Electric Driver) Power Windows 5 Gauge Package Windshield Wipers Keyless Ignition w/Battery Switch Polished Roadster Steering Column SoCal 4 Spoke Wheel Lokar Tall Shifter Remote Stereo/CD Lokar Pedals Ogah Horn I guess you’re probably wondering why Rick wants to sell this spectacular one-off Hot Rod. Well, it’s not a simple answer. See Rick is a surfer and he set it up for driving to the beach… until he got done that is. The Ride is just too nice to drag down to Sano with the Racks on top. The dust and dirt would simply eat it up. It is just too nice. So the reality is he is probably going to rat rod something up down the road to replace this gorgeous Custom Rod. Two to three years went into building this phenomenal little Custom Hot Rod. Now is the chance for you to score on one of the nicest rides I have seen in a long time. Get in it and go. This baby is built for speed and longevity. High Quality build from start to finish. Completely sorted and runs like a dream. For additional questions or more pictures feel free to call me anytime.
