- Just a video of my 1931 Ford Model A Roadster. it's got a 255 Mercury Flathead v8 with a I think 36 top loader 3 speed trans. I'm running 16" wires all around and with a banjo rear. The front is a speedway 4" drop axle with juice brakes all around. Modified F1 steering box and modified F1 pedals also. The car is running a stock model a frame with a spring behind in the rear to get the car down a little lower.
A cool roadster and a good dog makes for a fun country cruise. The supercharger plan sounds like a great project.
Man!! That car is beautiful!! Blows away any 75 thousand dollar model A out there. Nice job!!!
Id LIKE to see you put 3.8 semi modern drive train/susp but i know how you like to do things.....
It’s beautiful, seriously, just beautiful. Imagine the looks I’d get driving around in that in my neighborhood on the weekends scrounging garage sales. Perfect.
What a great build Brent! Love the flathead - can't beat that sound. Thanks for the tour and looking forward to seeing more on this one - supercharger - oh yeah!
Your right Its important to check all your fluids.. it's very important that you do so .so opening the fridge I found to my horror that all my fluids were extremely low .so it was a trip down to the supermarket .you can never be to careful
I love it. That is a cool build. Simple and lots of fun. Those front bones look to be zephyr. Don't see too many with the step in them. Love how to tear it up. Fun car.
Thanks! I think most of them where stepped in the mid to late 40's I always thought.
Another Kickass Kustom from you,! Nice ride. Love your attitude! Thanks for sharing!
Wow, memories of 14 years old with a ‘31 roadster on a back road in BC. That’s where it started, and there’s still nothing to beat what you’ve got right there. Thanks so much for sharing it.
That is classic! Model A roadster with a flatty and wire wheels on a dirt road. Absolutely cool!
Sir you are a true artist when people say hot rod that's what I see not some bought off the shelf parts just a guy with some wrenches and acetylene torch and his imagination keep living the dream my friend
Thanks man.
Man, I wouldn't change a thing. Dream car!! That top made from the old canvas is right on too. Good work, hope to see more of it.
Just a beautiful thing, I always wanted to build one since 58, but only had a few opportunities and never had the money. Great result here, enjoy. Thanks for posting. Dennis in Virginia
The Model T is going to great as well. Just because your doing it. Thank you for sharing Brent. Your fabrication is 2yo no one.
A nice day, your best pal, top down and a cruise. And a few donuts on a dirt road. That is LIFE.. Great "A".
Stay Real.
Cooooool, was going to mod / rod my 38 Chev sloaper but after seeing this, it's gonna stay old n bold! I'll just soup it up as original steel!
WHAT A GREAT DAY TO PUT THE TOP DOWN !!! THANKS BRENT !
That is a sweet ride! I like how it looks like you found it in a barn, as is. As if forgotten 70 yrs. Good video and good cars.
A man who has a car for every day of the week! Keep at it Brent, you are quite the craftsmen!
You saved an other one from destruction!! Great work again. Nice music. You have serious skill and talent.
Thanks Jay!
My dad bought an all original 30 Model A Coupe in 1990 that ran and drove. He parked it in the climate controlled garage next to his 76 L-82 Singray, 78 Lincoln Mark V (or whatever) 460/4brl/C6/9 inch posi with rear disc brakes, triple black, sunroof, factory CB, an 81 Harley Davidson Wide Glide (bought new) and my stepmoms brand new 1988 S10 Blazer. The Blazer was the only daily driver. Dad drove a 68 Ford 4WD/360/4brl/granny low 4spd with a 6inch chassis, 3" body lift on 17/40 mudders....daily. I drove a 64 Chevy C10 that would be considered a rat rod today but I called it "unfinished" what was finished was on that truck was a strong 350/300HP heads shaved .020 ( off a 66 Chevelle) an Edelbrock Torquer, 650cfm Holley, 2:80 Magnum Comp Cam w/double roller chain, Hedman headers and Cherry bomb header mufflers. I was smoking Fox bodies and 3rd gens until the mid 90s (and owned an 82/TA, 87 Formula 350)
My point is; I begged Dad to drive this 30 Model A. It had been restored in the 50s and was red with black fenders. I also wanted to put the Lincoln 460/C6/9inch Posi in it with a blower!!! Here is what happened. The vette, the Harley, the Lincoln, the Model A sat in the dark until dad died in 2012. The Lincoln was sold for scrap. My kiss-ass cousin got the Harley and traded it to have his driveway repaved. The Blazer traded on a fucking minivan. The Vette traded for a damn lawnmower. Dad also had a Henry J gasser with a DZ/302 and a 78 3/4 Ford 460/C6 with tandem trailer he pulled it with.
My stepmom was nice but did not understand the value of these cars. My punk little half brother was a Starbucks barista and cant open the hood on his Hyundai. This is what sometimes happens to car collections and it is so fucking sad.
Glad to see an old Model A on the road!!!
Another badass gem tucked away in the corner of the garage!
Blown flathead? Yes please! Lol
You could hold your own car show!
Reminds me of my child hood when i was 12 i had a 31 5 window i live out in the boones farm country my old man let me drive it everywhere on gravel roads i used to give it hella blast lollove that roadster.
You've got some mad skills and one cool hot rod collection.
Looks to be a fun car. Pablo looks good perched up beside you looks like he enjoy it to.
Out of all of your projects and cars this one's my favorite I think the general is number 2 but this definitely my favorite
Awesome old school hot rod. You are ready for TROG, Love it. Ron
Love it Brent. Absolutely bad ass. Pablo looks good in it
Really nice little roadster. You have good taste.
That flathead does sound great and wires all the way around look awesome! Always smile seeing a new video from u, makes my day!
Pablo is digging that top down ride!
Cool, I love the way you put it together, the parts are so original.
You make all that sound easy,i,ll bet that was a hell of a lot of work and chin rubbing.Smashing job.
good vid.
Thank you.
Great looking car. I would be proud to say it was mine.
Cool hot rod, great video, loved the aerial footage and the music. Thanks for sharing. Oh yeah and the burn out was pissa. As we say, here in Boston
What a great old hot rod, I did a couple of model A's back to shiny original show cars. But I like your patina style just fine.
Great job on the top. The lines on the car are so cool and classic.
a man and his best bud and hotrod ,its BEAUTIFUL thang!
Like the roadster looks better with the wires. Made me smile when you said bottom of rumble seat is a bus seat. Cause that s what I put in my 28 ford sedan as a seat fit pretty good too Nice cars you have.
haha was a while ago and had to remember what stuff I used everywhere.
Like your shows. Really enjoy your way of handling obstacles that you come up against,also your dogs.,seem like good company . You got a great shop ,the benefits of acreage or farm living ,you got good room ,wish I had that room , I want to tell also I appreciate your videos ,and really appreciate that you don’t swear or loose fowl language steady like some others , I have been Redding for years but I have to admit ,have learned something from you already ,and have only been watching for a month or so , keep up the old work really enjoy
Every car you have is a lil more interesting and I love it. This thing has to be cool cruising around with the top down and girls in the rumble seat
Wow anther good old honest hotrod . Very cool Brent
Your roadster is fricken awesome.... Nice throwback!
Nice roadster and dog. Dogs love going for rides
Really cool looks great! that car has great proportions .
A very cool roadster and story! It is what a hotrod should be.
Cool roster my friend I will paint that hot rod the same color you did to the Pontiac love your ideas keep on building God bless
Super original cool roadster & Videos
you make, Maestro Signiore !
Regards from 🇧🇷
Fine car in a fine spot in the country.
Hey Brent , I've been waiting to see this . Watched it 3 times ,my goodness...isn't this nice ! I got 1 hubcap ,three 16 " wheels and one 17'' when I got my '35 Slantback . This is terrific , If your desperate for hubcaps you can have mine then your only short 1 hubcap . I'll borrow a friend's comment about Brainard a few years ago , "this is gooder than good !"
Your channel is just too much FUN... Good Stuff.
That is one sweet incantation to a timeless classic. I had a career in paint and love the fact that your 31 has none ! it was relatively easy to cobble together a roadable ride from a pile of junk and your work is a testament to that. Super that you were able to find four wire wheels to compliment the appearance in just the right way. A Grand National blower on a flatty, now that's sumthin" .
Cool ride and the dog is a nice touch you videos are awesome and motivating. Thanks
I like the rough look of the car. If I could change anything about it I would take the 30 grill shell off and either shorten it a little or maybe put a short 32 grill shell on. You sir have a lot of nice toys.
What a great true hot rod; with a flat head, even. 1929 stock sport coupe here.
Got a 29 D bucket on a Chevy S10 frame, 350 Chevy 5 Speed. Need to get a top like yours. Nicely done !
One of the best channels on UTube always great content technically and humerus keep up the great work always look forward to each vlog
What a fun ride and sweet hot rod. Thanks for sharing 😎✌
AWESOME video! Way cool car.
Very nice man!! Love your stuff.
That car looks extremely fun.
Really Trick!! You have a great vision for your Ride!! Keep it up!!🎩🎩
Neato! I have a '30 coupe hi-boy with a lot of the same parts: '40 Chevy taillights ('39 Ford are so common); bored and stroked '47 Merc flattie w/top mount gen and fan; '39 trans; '36 rear w/ aft spring for drop; F1 steering and pedals; '36 banjo s/wheel (which is what you've got there); dropped 'A' front axle w/split bones; early Lincoln hydraulics etc. I'd love some '35 wires, but these are getting very hard to find these days, so I'm running '40 solids w/ caps and original ribbed beauty rings. She's a hell of a lot of fun..
sounds cool, I would love to find a coupe but they are super hard to find out here.
That's actually a show car, it's like okay pass me by but the real car guys will look at that car for a while.
Don’t you feel guilty having so many cool cars😉. I’m just jealous...each one of yours is the product of a lot of hard work and a great imagination. Loved the forties look of you and the rod! and of course the donuts.
The first time you offered to let him out of the car he looked at you with like get out of the car I'm still trying to figure out why we stopped
Ant nothing like a A v8 .flathead rocks open headers brilliant
Brent, you have more cool cars and trucks than I have fingers and toes! If you ever want to donate one to the NeedMore foundation just let me know because I need more!
I love it, them flat head motors love them. You should do more of those
Fabulous day for a cruise and video. Love the ride!!!
Great old roadster!
Cool roadster! I can’t wait to get my 22 T “done” and on the road
I know it's a craze to have no fenders. But imo the would look so cool with fenders.......... All the best from UK just subscribed ....I only joined because you put Jonathan w on the start. Now that man Jonathan w is a great bloke and a icon
Man that dog is pretty loyal o yeah I love the car really cool
Oh I dig the music that you pick for your video.
Dude that thing is awesome.
I love it sir ol Flathead sounds good buddy
Funny car. Nice roof. I like the hood. I have a 1940 Opel Kadett cabrio to restore.
Beautiful car! Definitely on my bucket list!
As a kid in New Zealand in the early 60's I remember lots of A V8 roadsters were running around. There were lots of V8 engines left over from WW2 and model A's had been big sellers, add to this the sale of Hot Rod Mags in the news Agents and guys racing cars in Europe and the US in the late 40's who bought back parts and ideas all made NZ a little hot rod heaven ,
You cant beat a great hot rod and a great dog!
Glad you didn't spoil it by tacking random "art" pieces all over it. A true " rusteration"!! And the way your fuzzy buddy was hesitant to get out speaks in volumes. Great build! Good day🏁🔧🏁
Got me a '31 roadster, and I got me a dog.
To me, that's livin' high on the hog.
Too cool, man.😊
Absolutely Perfect, can't fault that car aesetically in any way , love it !!!
Beautiful car👌
That is awesome love how you got a flathead engine in it
that sweek man keep the great work I put v12 Lincoln flathead in ford 8n tractor flathead Friday
i love it! wish we had more old fords here in australia, i would love to build my own, only old bodies you find where i'm from are stuck in the bushland
That's pretty much how this one started, Just a pile of parts
Love your Dog , love your car , I have a lot of respect for people who build their own cars , for me the way you explained you car was good , I would have taken 1/2 an hour longer ha ha
Nice old ride love the look man. Sweet burn out to👍
All you need are some Bib overall's and you would look like the "Oh Brother where art thou cast. nice rod there Brent..
Really cool car Brent 👍👍
Your copilot seemed to enjoy the ride. The car is cool 😎 love the burnout 😂
Man that's so cool you got all the wire wheels. I bet you could make some hubcaps and put an H G on them.
Absolutely stunning. I take my hat off to you.
You have some very good drone skills as well.
Love your dog matches your ride
Man you got cool stuff hidden everywhere!
Why anyone would give this a thumbs down is beyond me. Cool ass car 👍😎
It looks absolutely perfect 👌🏻
Very cool old rod!
Love your roadster, couple bobed rear fenders would look good 👍
Man! That's one cool Deuce roadster!👌😎👍
