1930 Model A Closed Cab PIckup using the R&D Unique & AAM Aftermarket Kits

[tim boyd]

As part of my series of taking you all through the Closed Cab Hot Rod Pickups in my collection, next up is this 1930 Ford Model A Closed Cab pickup.  

This was based on aftermarket kits from R&D Unique (the chassis/suspension) and All American Models (the body).  

This was another one of the resin aftermarket cabs replicating the 1930 Model A Closed Cab pickup that I used in a "comparo" type article that appeared in Car Modeler magazine IIRC. 

 

The engine was a Ford Motorsport V6 from the NASCAR support series, and the paint was two shades of aqua from the "Odds'n'Ends" paint lineup back then. The red wires were from AMT's 1934 Ford kit.

 

Plenty more pictures here.....thanks for looking.....TIM

Just looked on your Fotki site, I remember your articles on those very cars!

Glad to see they've all survived all these years. 

They still look good!
