Status: Sold

1931 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup Hot Rod This expertly-built 1931 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup Hot Rod is a stunning combination of period-correct craftsmanship and modern performance upgrades, designed with both style and drivability in mind. Finished in a deep black exterior over a rich maroon leather interior, this Model A strikes a bold presence with timeless Hot Rod attitude—ready for cruise nights, car shows, or spirited weekend drives. Power comes from a high-output 350ci OHV Chevrolet V8, topped with a single Weber carburetor and delivering an estimated 325 horsepower at 5,800 rpm. The engine is mated to a smooth automatic transmission, sending power to a tough and reliable 9-inch Ford rear end with a 4-link suspension setup, providing both strength and improved ride control. This Hot Rod rides on a fully upgraded chassis featuring 4-wheel performance suspension and 4-wheel performance brakes, ensuring modern handling and stopping power that lives up to its muscular look. Built to last and show, the body features a steel hood, steel fenders, and a steel bed, while the rear tub is fiberglass - a smart blend of authenticity and functionality. The result is a vehicle that captures the best of traditional Hot Rodding with thoughtfully executed updates. Originally developed as the successor to the Model T, the Model A quickly became a favorite for early Hot Rod builders. Its iconic silhouette, affordability, and ease of customization made it a canvas for post-war performance dreams. Today, that same spirit lives on in this beautifully finished example. Tastefully prepared and packed with power, this Model A Roadster Pickup Hot Rod offers vintage flair with serious performance, and it’s more than ready for its next adventure.
