Ford Model A Rat Rod in Profile
This particular vehicle may be considered as a “rat rod”, deliberately made to appear worn, damaged or otherwise imperfect. In addition to that, this one has been chopped (to lower the roof), channeled (to lower the body deeper into the frame to lower the car overall, and fitted with non-standard parts such as the Small Block Chevrolet V8 and steel disc wheels.
Even though this one has a canvas roof, it might not be able to be retracted as on a Roadster or Cabriolet. Ford did offer the ‘Sport Coupe’ model that appeared as though the roof would retract but actually did not.
