Vehicle Detail
Relisted due to (0) feedback non-paying bidder whom we could never reach after numerous attempts. PLEASE, don't waste our time here. You're looking at a No Reserve auction for a 1928 Model A Bantam style traditional hot rod with a custom, cut down Murray Body. It was a 4 door, but now the rear suicide doors are the front/only doors. The cowl, windshield and visor were moved back, and front doors eliminated. The roof was chopped, and body angle channeled for that perfect rake. This is not piece of crap "rat" rod. It is a clean, well thought out, high quality build from the ground up, using actual vintage parts that would've been available back in the '60s. The car is running, driving, is currently licensed, lights all work, turn signals are the type that model A's all used, Ooga horn works, brake lights, etc. The only two modern items on the car are the Lokar shifter and the radiator. The frame is original Model A rails that have been boxed to handle the much more powerful 401 cubic inch Nailhead V8 that came out of a 1965 Buick Electra. It has a TH-400 trans and the Electra rear axle with posi traction was installed. The front axle is stock Model A unit, but 1940 "juice" brakes were added. 1932 ford truck grille shell that has been channeled down with an aluminum radiator. I have listed the car for my neighbor who built the car from just a frame and a body. This is truely a period-correct hotrod that has real heart and soul, NOT built from a catalog. He is in the final stages of cancer and is not interested in trades unless you've got a nice '58 Chevy Station Wagon. If you have other questions or would like to see the car in person, his sons are: Tracy 64l 42O 6785 or Robert 64l 42O 8674 Be sure to click on the following 2 videos of the car running & driving: http://youtu.be/pvJd1jBAgs8 http://youtu.be/mNY8swnRQD4?t=15s If you have any trouble viewing the slideshow at the top of this page, please click on the following thumbnail image below to view the web-album with over 100 super-sized photos of the car: Model A Bantam Hot Rod For Sale By bidding on this vehicle you acknowledge that it is being sold As Is with no warranty. $500 deposit due within 5 days of auction's end, and remainder to be paid in cash upon pickup.
