Henry Ford enjoyed much success with the Model T and early Model A’s. Well into production for the Model A, 1930 models would be no exception. The year would bear witness to the 20 millionth Ford produced and would ultimately beat out Chevrolet’s total production by a mere 4,100 cars. Model A’s were plentiful and over time they became perfect for hot rodding. Highly modified with modern underpinnings, this Hot Rod Ford runs with a small block Chevy engine topped with three two-barrel carburetors and an automatic transmission. Two other modern features include a glass sunroof and air conditioning. The rear end is a polished fully independent unit and Boyd Coddington wheels have been mounted. While some minor flaws can be found, this Ford was clearly built as a usable showpiece utilizing many high-end components throughout the process.
