Description
Vehicle Description 1931 Ford Model A $58,995 "Step into a living legend with this 1931 Ford Model A, a traditional hot rod steeped in rich history and authentic post-WWII charm. This coupe has been lovingly transformed by Norman Pearson Marchment, whose documented ownership and build history trace back decades, evolving from its stock roots to a powerful Chevrolet 283 V8 powerhouse. Preserving its raw, period-correct hot-rod character, this Model A carries the soul of American automotive culture, complete with a removable custom top and an original surfboard rack, making it a truly unique piece for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Inside, the cabin welcomes you with a classic black vinyl bench seat that offers both comfort and nostalgia. The door cards and carpeting are well-preserved, maintaining a driver-quality presentation that complements the historic vibe. Functional heating keeps the cabin cozy, while the minimalist dashboard features a column shifter and vintage gauges that connect you directly with the vehicle's heritage. Under the hood roars the heart of this hot rod-a Chevrolet 283 V8 with stock-style heads and a Rochester 2-barrel carburetor delivering smooth acceleration and a deep, satisfying rumble. The 3-speed manual transmission with Borg-Warner R11 overdrive adds to the authentic driving experience, while the dual exhaust with glasspack mufflers amplifies the car's signature growl. The traditional early hot-rod chassis, dropped solid front axle, and 1948 Ford rear axle with 4.11 gears offer a raw, engaging ride that echoes the spirit of bygone racing days.
