1929 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup - All Star A

Thanks to a thorough restoration and refinishing, the original Ford doorsill plates appear new.

The Wilwood calipers and geometrically slotted Titanium rotors stopped the lightweight roadster pickup so swiftly the owner had to uninstall the custom-crafted power-brake booster in favor of manual disc brakes. Superior engineering, fit and finish are all hallmarks of Kugel Komponents suspension systems.

American Racing Torq-Thrust IIs offered the owner the timeless look he sought. The rears have a 3.75-inch backspace and are 17x10 inches. The fronts have a 3.5-inch backspace and are 15x6 inches. Dunlop Radials cover the rolling stock.

Both the top bows and the inside of the custom-made top received a special suede interlining, all from M&M Interiors.

Notice the fuel-filler door in the T&T Customs oak and stainless steel stringer-installed bed floor.

There are two under-dash hood pulls for the custom-made three-piece hood. The passenger-side pull is shown, as is some more of M&M's master trimwork.

To match the rest of the interior, M&M Interiors trimmed the rim of the billet aluminum steering wheel with tan German leather.

If you look closely, you'll see the truck's name on the valve cover. Advanced Plating chrome-plated the dual Edelbrock 650-cfm four-barrel carbs that feed the thirsty Rat engine. Fabricated by T&T Customs, the doghouse air-cleaner cover and valve covers scream Ridler-worthy. They also deburred the block before painting it to match the chassis and exterior.

Talented craftsman Terry Womack, of T&T, fabricated the Model A-esque dash bezel and filled it with Classic Instruments gauges.
