Ford Model A 350 V8 with Injection 1929

Allmän beskrivning : 1929 Ford Roadster Pickup Custom When it comes to the world of car customization there aren't many bigger names than George Barris.  He was a well known car builder who designed some of the most iconic vehicles ever created including the original Batmobile, The Munsters Drag-U-La and more.  One of his well known builds and most iconic vehicles was a custom Pickup named Ala Kart.  It was owned by Richard Peters and another big name associated with the build was Mike "Blackie" Gejeian who would go on to organize one of the largest car shows in America, Autorama.  The build was done in 1957 and the car won some of the biggest awards in the country and was featured in magazines, movies, and television.  This very cool 1929 Ford was built by the owner of Old Dog Street Rods for his personal collection and over $200,000 was invested into its construction.  It was inspired by Ala Kart and they pulled it off perfectly.  The iconic front end really stands out and was all hand made.  The entire truck is all steel and entirely rust free.  It is dressed in a very clean high quality metallic Burgundy paint with the fenders being slightly darker.  The custom top is removable but honestly the truck looks really sharp when it is in place.  It has oak planks with stainless strips in the rear bed and an ultraviolet resistant finish was applied to keep it protected.  With that unique front end it also required a custom hood and hood sides as well as an Alumicraft grill.  The truck has an awesome stance and rides on a set of Billet Specialties 5 spoke Vintec wheels with Goodyear radial tires (225/45ZR17 - front, 245/45R18 - rear). Underneath that custom hood is a 350 ci small block V8 that runs well.  It has been fitted with a very cool Hilborn 8 stack electronic fuel injection which is always a treat to reveal at car shows. Other nice features include the Dart heads, Powermaster alternator, Powermaster starter, a custom Zero to Cool radiator, cool flex hoses and custom valve covers.  The truck sound good through its dual exhaust system that exits out of the rear in custom tips.  Paired with the motor is a Bowles 700R4 automatic 4 speed transmission paired with a polished Currie 9 inch rear end.  Underneath the car it rides on a TCI chassis and you will note a lot of the components have been painted to match the body.  Up front it has an independent front suspension and it also has 4 wheel disc brakes under all 4 corners. Inside the truck it has tan leather upholstery with matching carpet and headliner.  It is a two tone style with darker inserts on the bench seat and is in good condition.  In front of the driver sits an Ididit custom steering column that actually will swing out of your way.  This is a very cool feature as vehicles of this time period are notoriously small on the inside.  This makes getting in and out a much simpler task.  On top of that column is a 3 spoke aftermarket steering wheel.  On the floor is a Lokar shifter with LED gear indicator.  The steel dash features a custom made bezel with engine turned trim framing the AutoMeter gauges.  The truck has dual gas tanks but only 1 is currently being used. This is one awesome pickup that is incredibly unique.  Unless you are looking at the Ala Kart itself there are pretty slim odds that you are going to see another one.  Above all though, it is being offer at an awesome price considering how much it took to construct it.  This truck is a steal at only $48,500.00!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
