Information on 1931 Ford
1931 Ford original steel body, modified with a 1932 grill and 1932 dashboard. The top has been chopped with 2.5 inches removed and lowered. The roof has been filled by welding in a piece taken from a Chrysler station wagon. The rear fenders have been shortened 7 inches. The entire sub frame of the body has been replaced, and all corroded metal removed from the body and replaced. A bulkhead has been fabricated behind the seats, as the gas tank has been moved to the trunk area. A new firewall was fabricated to accommodate the motor. Independent front suspension with disc brakes was installed. 4 bar rear suspension is used with 12 in. drum brakes.

The car is built to be driven on the street. It has a tilt steering wheel, cruise control, turn signals, headlights, tail lights, remote control doors, and even a heater. I don’t think I will need the heater, as keeping the motor cool will be difficult.
