one day my dad took me for a ride to autozone in it and he got on it and i about chocked dam it fast it threy me in the back of the seat big time it supprised me big time 1929 Ford Roadster high-boy is approx 3 years old. It has a fiberglass body with both doors that open. It sits on a '29 frame that is boxed and painted with POR-15. The grill is a steel '32 shell modified with a '36 Chevy truck insert. They cover a Walker Cobra radiator. The headlites are fender lites from an Oliver farm tractor. The turn signal lites are Amethyst glass cowl lites from a '26 Dodge Brothers sedan. The front axle and tail lites are '39 Ford. The wishbones were split and mid '70 Chevy truck tie rod ends were used. Late model GM disc brakes were installed using Speedway Motors conversion kit. Stockton wheels have been powder coated for easy maintenance. Rear end is a mid 80's Chevy 10 bolt with 3:71 gears. The engine is a '76 4-bolt main 350 c.i. The heads are 76cc, have been ported and polished and uses 2.02" intake valves.Badger pistons are 10.5 to 1. A 292 duration , .480 lift Comp Cam was used to allow good idle quality along with very impressive street performance.On top of the motor sits an Edelbrock dual quad tunnel ram with 2 Holley 660 center squirters. A Mallory marine distributor was converted toPytronics breakerless ignition to add a touch of individualism (how many of those do you see today?). Finishing off the ignition is a Mallory AL-6 Control box and a MSD coil. The trans is a 700R4 with a hardened drum, high performance clutch plates, Corvette servo and a B&M shift kit. Shifting is accomplished with a Lokar shifter. The speedo is from a '79 Harley-Davidson Sportster (not very accurate but COOL as Hell). The interior is simple but elegant using Champagne Corinthian leather. If you like the way a traditional hot rod looks, you'll love this car. This hot rod is easy enough to drive in the worst of traffic and has enough power to give you the fix of plain old HP that all gearheads enjoy. For more info, e-mail
