Stovebolt's 1931 Ford Model A

Barn find, pretty much

About this Current Vehicle:

Found it out past Seagoville, in Crandall, TX. Thought it was a great deal, though it's a Sport Coupe, so that'll be a little tough, but I'm probably going to make a carson top for it.

Factory Options:

Rumble Seat

Exterior Modifications:

None yet. I'm planning on channeling it (possibly over a set of deuce rails) going without hood sides, going to leave it unchopped.

Interior Modifications:

Probably tuck and roll buckets - probably custom made from aluminum.

Performance:

Rear brakes will be pulled from my parts car alfa...they're 15" aluminum finned drums. Front brakes are unknown, probably Ford F-100 units. Maybe no front brakes at all. Just kidding.

Suspension/Chassis:

Going for drop-axle, and some form of impressive live-axle suspension set-up.

Drivetrain:

Building a monster Y-Block. Preliminary plans (asterisk indicates already acquired):

292 cid Y-Block* bored out to 312 cid
-Spica Mechanical fuel injection
-EZCG heads*
-Forged crankshaft
-double roller chain
-10:1 up to 11:1 compression ratio
-Set of headers. Possibly lake pipes.

I want a naturally aspirated beast from hell

It will probably be backed up by a ford 9" and some sort of 3-speed on the floor, possibly a truck 4 speed.

Electronics:

None. Old school, baby.

To-Do List:

Get started.
