1929 Ford Model A Cabriolet Street Rod For Sale All Steel * 4.3L V6 * 700R4 Overdrive * Disc Brakes This 1929 Ford Model A Cabriolet combines classic open-air Model A styling with a more modern Chevrolet drivetrain and driver-friendly upgrades. Featuring an all-steel body on its original frame, removable convertible top, 4.3L V6, 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission, and disc brakes, this is a traditional street rod built to be enjoyed. Unlike many fiberglass-bodied Model A builds, this example retains its all-steel construction and original Ford frame, giving it the authentic feel and character enthusiasts appreciate. Power comes from a 1990-era Chevrolet 4.3L V6 equipped with a four-barrel carburetor. The 4.3L provides a substantial improvement in drivability while fitting neatly into the Model A platform. Backing the engine is a 700R4 automatic transmission, providing an overdrive gear that makes the car much better suited to cruising than the original Model A drivetrain. Power is sent to a 9-bolt rear end with 3.42 gearing, providing a good combination for street driving and highway cruising. Drivetrain & Mechanical Highlights: * Chevrolet 4.3L V6 * Four-barrel carburetor * 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission * 9-bolt rear end * 3.42 rear gear ratio * Disc brakes * Pusher-style electric cooling fan * Newer fuel tank relocated to the trunk The Cabriolet body retains the unmistakable proportions that made the Model A one of the most recognizable American automobiles ever produced. Its removable convertible top allows it to be enjoyed as an open-air cruiser while still providing weather protection when desired. Another great period feature is the original glass windshield, which retains its factory- style opening function and can be pushed outward for additional ventilation. The body presents well overall, although it is not being represented as a flawless show car. There are some scratches on the hood along with several paint chips, giving the next owner the option of simply enjoying the car as-is or addressing the cosmetic imperfections over time. Exterior & Body Highlights: * All-steel Model A body * Original Ford frame * Cabriolet body style * Removable convertible top * Original glass windshield * Windshield opens outward * Classic Model A styling * Some scratches present on hood * Several paint chips present Inside, the Model A has been updated with a tilt steering column for improved driving comfort while retaining some of its original character. Additional gauges have been installed to monitor the upgraded drivetrain, while the original speedometer remains in place and is reported to operate properly. Interior & Driver Features: * Tilt steering column * Auxiliary gauges * Original speedometer * Speedometer operates properly * Traditional street-rod layout This Model A strikes a nice balance between vintage character and practical upgrades. The all-steel body, original frame, opening original-glass windshield, and working original speedometer preserve important pieces of its 1929 identity, while the Chevrolet V6, 700R4 overdrive, disc brakes, tilt steering, and upgraded cooling make it much more approachable for modern driving. For someone looking for an all-steel Model A Cabriolet that can actually be driven and enjoyed, rather than a car that has to remain parked at a show, this 1929 Ford offers an appealing combination of vintage style and street-rod usability.
