1929 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup

I don't quite like how the boat tail was done in the rear. It looks like the lower sheet metal that flares out at the bottom doesn't belong there. The shape is too organic and doesn't fit with rest of the very simple one dimensional bends on most of the rest of the car. Other than that, it's a beautiful car. Do you have any more info on it? I'd like to start saving photos.

I don't like how they handled the side and rear of that car either. I have some different ideas if we decide to go that route. I don't have any more pictures of it. I found it on Google Images when I searched "Model A Speedster".

Woody, I don't know if you knew about this site, but it's great inspiration for what you want to do.

Thanks. I was actually on there last night for the first time in a year or so. Lot's of nice stuff there.

have you thought about building your own frame?

additionally, i may be ablr yo get you a couple down here....

Okay, it looks like I'm going to have to start a new build thread, as the project is heading in a slightly different direction.

The Roadster Pickup is out.

Enter, The Speedster...

Thank god.

I'm picking up the chassis donor in the morning.

You're walking a path that interests me. I'm watching closely.

Wait, if that's the chassis donor and you have a motor.....there's practically a whole car left over. Challenge budget techniques in play?

Something like that.

i want your body......

to chop, chanel, section, and daily. on bags. with EFI, overdrive, and AC.

This is very interesting. I like where you are headed with this.

Body should be available very soon.

how much?

Yeah. That's nice. I love the '28/'29 cowl....my favorite kind of A, in fact.

I love the early cowl too, and I think the narrow hood will help accent the Flathead V8 underneath.

No price on the body yet. That will take a week or so to figure out exactly what we have here.

Since I started this as a Roadster Pickup thread and it's going to be a Speedster, I'm going to start a new thread. I'll post a link when that happens.

Why not have a mod change the title?
