Ford Other 1934 Description
Posted for sale is my buddy's 1934 Fordstreetrod. This early 1990's Gibbons bodied cruiser was originally built in the 90's by an older gentleman and then tucked away and not used. When my friend got it in 2012 he tore it down and over the next 2 years he has redone everything.The body came from Gibbons already chopped 3". It has aChassis Engineering frame with a mustang II front end and a4-barcoil-overshock rear end. The rear axle is a 9" Ford, ousing 2.73 highway gears (new). The front disc and rear drum brakes are power assisted and also new.
The interior is gray leather with new VDO gauges and a Jensen stereo system which all work as they should. Seat beltsfront and back. The suicide doors are opened from the outside with a hidden button. The suicide doors also have safety deadbolt locks to prevent accidentally opening the doors when moving. The rack & pinion steering is not powerassistedas it does not need it.
The motor is a 290 HP crate 350, hat has the same mileage as the car, 550 miles. This also goes for the stainless steel headers,aluminizedexhaust system, hromed Edelbrock carb and manifold, ills Speed Shop engine brackets, 00 amp chrome alternator and a/c compressor. It has a Walker radiator and shroud without electric cooling fan. Even with the a/c on in Florida it never gets over 190. Everything but the case under the dash on Vintage Air system has been replaced and it can freeze you out. All the original wiring was stripped from the car and it was rewired front to back with a new EZE Wire system. All new fuel lines were ran and brake lines and hoses replaced where necessary. It has a new battery and the underneath looks as good as the topside. Its hard to believe its the same pinkish colored car he started with. The blue pearl paint is excellent and only in bright light do you realize its not black. He has won quite a few best of shows here in the Tampa area.
The car runs on new 15" American mag wheels and new tires with 2,550 miles. The owner built a trunk rack on the back that you can see in the pictures. It is made to take on and off with two wrenches. He recently bought a bra and grille screen to protect the front end and they come with the car.
In the interest of full disclosure, he only thing that could use replacing is the front and back bumpers. The chrome is good but they were slightly tweeked at one time. Unless you are looking for it you wouldn't know it.
Unfortunately wedidn'thave time for posing the car in the best location and light due to a storm moving in and in my haste I forgot to take the bug screen off the grille. It is a fully chrome grille.Its a striking car that gets compliments everywhere he has taken it.
If you have any questions please call the owner, ick at 813-244-2660.On Jul-18-15 at 08:57:16 PDT, eller added the following information:
Saturday--I added a picture of the grille without the bug screen and 7 photos of the underneath.
