I have owned my 1930 Model A coupe since 1976. I
was 14 years old when my uncle gave it to me after he inherited it when my
grandfather passed away. My grandfather was a restorer and had a rather
extensive Model A collection.
I started with just a stock chassis and the body. For the next 29 years I
collected parts to build the car and finally put it together with my son Travis
starting in 2005.
The coupe is powered by a highly modified Model A Ford 4 cylinder engine and
shifted by a 1939 Ford transmission with Lincoln gears to a very rare early
Halibrand Model A quickchange.
We have raced at several hill climbs, time trials and the Antique National's
drags, usually winning our class.
