Description
This Ford Roadster hot rod is fitted with an exposed steel 1929 Roadster body mounted to a custom frame with 1932-style rails, and it is powered by a GM LS1 V8 paired with a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission. Subsequent work involved installing a standalone ECU, lap belts, and Dakota Digital gauges as well as overhauling the transmission and replacing the fuel filter, fuel lines, spark plugs, and windshield. Equipment includes QA1 adjustable coilovers, four-link rear suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, staggered 15â? and 16â? steel wheels, and distressed brown leather upholstery. The windshield was replaced in 2022. Additional details include a custom track nose and shaved door handles. Various dents, scratches, and other imperfections are noted. Black-finished 15â? and 16â? wheels wear chrome V8-logo hubcaps and are mounted with 165-width Firestone F-560 front and Coker Classic rear tires. The car is equipped with QA1 adjustable coilovers with triangulated four-link suspension out back. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes. The cabin houses a bench seat upholstered in distressed brown leather along with matching door panels, black loop carpets, and a body-color dash that features a central rearview mirror and a black leather pouch.
