1929 Ford Custom Coupe

Fords from the 1920s have made some of the most classic hot rods in history, and this phenomenon shows no sign of stopping. A huge amount of Model As were made, allowing for unprecedented hot rod production, and this model is carrying the torch ignited by rods like the Kookie Kar. According to the auctioneers, over $45,000 worth of parts have been fitted to this extreme machine. Powered by a 350ci Chevy V8 (some will cry heresy, but I say bring it on,) which provides 310hp, this monster promises speed by the bucketload.

A four-speed GM auto transmission with overdrive has been linked up, and a 10-bolt axle and four-link rear suspension fitted. Disc brakes have been attached up front, while the beast’s weight body rests on coilover shock absorbers.

Inside, the car’s been retrofitted with custom bucket seats and Sparco harnesses, as well as a removable Sparco steering wheel and power windows.
