1930 Ford Model A’301 / 13

1930 Ford Model A

The Story

I was planning on building my own hot rod, but stumbled across this one for sale and it was everything I wanted. I bought this Model A in Grand Rapids from the GR Auto Gallery. The car was built by Cornfield Customs in Ohio and finished in 2017.

It runs on a banjo rear axle and a 239ci flathead (built in the late 40's) from a 1939 Mercury, and I have the wide 5 wheels from that '39 Mercury on it as well.

If you ask me what my favorite part of the car is, I'd have to say everything.
