STEEL BODY 1929 Ford Model A Sedan. Affectionately named 'THE FREAK'
5700cc 355ci Small Block Chevrolet V8 with Corvette 700R4 Transmission (For those motorway miles to events)
The Hot Rod is a special custom car that has been a labour of love, carefully crafted over many years. Derived from a Model A Sedan, 'The Freak' was originally a rust-free Michigan car, that's been chopped 3 inches and channelled by 4 inches. It is finished in Eastwood hot rod black, with a white vinyl top, set off by 16-inch Vintique steel wheels at the rear, plus 15-inch Dodge steels at the front, with baby moon hubcaps. It has a custom fabricated box-section 4x2 'Zeed' frame, and combines Mustang 2 front suspension with a Ford Explorer rear end. Competition Engineering coilover suspension adds sophistication. 'The Freak' has a 355ci Small Block Chevrolet V8 with Brodix heads, Edelbrock polished tunnel ram and twin Edelbrock 500cfm carbs. Transmission is a Corvette 700R4 with lockable overdrive by Andy Frost, with lockable overdrive for motorway cruising. There's also an eight-gallon spun aluminium fuel tank and three-core radiator. Inside, it has a custom 'tuck-n-roll' cabin with push-button starter, plus a battery shut-off housed within a home-made vented aluminium battery box.
This is an extremely cool car that literally starts on the button. It handles town traffic as happily as it does cruising at 70 on a motorway once the hit the overdrive button. It's loud! Waaay loud, and isn't for the faint-hearted – but The Freak is guaranteed to put a smile on your face after a tough day at work."

A LITTLE MODEL A HISTORY
The Ford Model A was the follow-up to the pivotal Ford Model T. It was introduced in 1927 and offered in an enormous variety of body variants, all derived from the same A Chassis. All factory cars used a 3. 3-litre four-cylinder engine with a three-speed gearbox. Nearly five million were produced in less than five years, and the Model A's sheer customisability saw it live on as a favourite amongst hot rod enthusiasts – often with the original four-cylinder engine replaced by a large-capacity V8.
