1930 MODEL A FORD

This project is a 1930 Model A Ford, 2 door coach.

BODY

The body has not been chopped.

Rear, vertical, body seams have been removed, seems welded and finished off.

Power window systems have been made up and the doors have bear claw latches.

The rear of the body was shortened about 3 ins. to allow the 32 tank to fit properly.

32 rad shell and SS grill insert.

FRAME

I built the frame from 2X4 tubing on a home made frame jig.

The frame is model A from the front to the center of the rear quarter panels. From there back it is of 32 design. This allows the use of parallel Leif springs and puts the fuel tank out back. I will fabricate frame horn covers to fit this modification.
