Thanks guys, it was a blast being with you.
It has the front end of a 1928-29 Ford Model A with its characteristic fuel filler at the center of the cowl. From the windshield-back, the body appears to be a custom creation. I think it's cool!
At the Antique Farm Equipment Show in Tulare, California. This well-equipped Ford Model A represents a period in California history when thousands of people from the middle of the US moved here in their quests for better opportunities.
This may be somewhat of an exaggeration, but the point is made.
Each time I see a photo of this old car, I think of Bonnie and Clyde and the way their bullet-riddled car looked after they were ambushed. I saw that movie 13 times when it first came out! Thanks, Greg, for giving me directions ~ Dalles Mountain Ranch is wonderful to visit!
In place of the original 4-cylinder engine, this one has a flathead V-8 engine fed by 2 carburetors (twin Strombergs?). The cab floor has been ‘channeled’ to set it lower onto the frame rails. The steering linkage has an interesting shape.
Here’s a factory photo of a stock Ford Model A pickup truck:

My thanks to Michael Paul Smith for the use of his car photo. Those not familiar with Michaels work, please check out his fantastic Flickr site: www.flickr.com/photos/24796741@N05/with/9619634676/. He does fantastic photo images of models in real world settings. I painted this a little more than I usually do on my art pieces, but thought these cars and the period piece would benefit from the extra brush strokes.

Taken at a local Cars & Coffee event in Queen Creek, Arizona.
This is an interesting collection of parts. The body appears to be chopped '28 or '29 Ford Model A coupe with fabric top, with channeled body to set lower onto the frame rails. The engine appears to be a Small Block Chevrolet fitted with straight-through, unmuffled exhaust headers.
The body appears to be painted with red primer paint, with white and gold accents.

It is a Ford Model A but it appears to have a 1928-29 grille and the body apparently from 1930-31. Of course in almost a century of existence things could have been changed around. The YOM license plate indicates 1929 though. Ford apparently offered a “Town Sedan” model with a cowl that blended into the rest of the body more like those of the 1930-31 Model A.

Original car image from thomas.merton, who is not posting any longer. (I don't think) I always liked this car image and thought it would be cool to work on again. Best viewed at the largest size. Hot Rod Art by Rat Rod Studios, www.RatRodStudios.com.

The bluebonnets were not very thick around Union Hill Farm this year, but I was pleased to find this old Model A in the meadow beside the farm. Photo taken on Union Hill Road in Ellis Co. TX on April 15, 2013.
Here is the same scene on April 20, 2015: flic.kr/p/sf8e9k
