Ford Model A -Rust Bucket

Cadiz, KY

My garage: Ford Model A -Rust Bucket

About my car

The car is how I bought it. It started as a 1928/29 Model A. The builder began with a cowl and windshield, 2 doors, front fenders, rear panel and tractor grill. the rest of the body is hand built. The frame is hand built with a Nova subframe in front. A 1 ton Chevy truck provided the rear dually axle, 350 V8 engine, and turbo 350 trans. It sits on a full airbagged suspension.

This car was made in 1928 and I've driven it since 2016
The Ford Model A was in production from 1927 to 1931
