Vintage cars from the 1920s and 1930s make for some great customization platforms. With their bulbous designs, relatively simple mechanicals and quirky interiors, they offer a blank canvas to those who dare to think different. Take this 1930 Ford Model A Roadster Custom as a prime example. It’s been extensively reworked by BBT Fabrications, featuring an all steel body into what you see here today. This Tempe, Arizona-located car has got only less than 500 miles on it so far, and is up for grabs. Slide into our DMs and find out how to own it, ASAP!
When it was born in Ford’s factory, this 1930 Ford Model A Roadster Custom was likely a two-door coupe but it’s been extensively modified since then into what you see here. First off, you’ll notice features such as the extended doors and body that have been pulled by 6 inches. Then, the new curved windshield springs into view. The Billet Specialties legacy wheels make their statement as well, paired with the removed roof and fenders. Along with its full steel body, the rest of the metalwork has been painted in a fetching shade of light green, and the whole caboodle rests on a custom chassis and is suspended by air suspension. The lighting also appears to have been upgraded. The interior of this 1930 Ford Model A Roadster Custom features Italian leather upholstery in a fetching and matching shade of tan brown that really complements the light green exterior. You’ve got Dakota Digital gauges, an aftermarket steering wheel, an Ididit tilt steering column, a Lokar shifter and many custom interior components. The pedals appear to be custom jobs too, and there’s an Alpine circular radio in the center console.
This 1930 Ford Model A Model A Roadster Custom enjoys modernized power, courtesy of its 302ci Ford V8 and Ford automatic transmission. The car is rear-wheel drive of course. Kugel independent front and rear suspension has been installed, and ensures that handling is suitable for the increased power.
Contrary to popular belief, the Model A nameplate didn’t come after the immensely popular Model T. In fact, it preceded it, as the first car Ford ever made. Production ran between 1903 and 1094, with a mere 1,750 cars made. Then, the Model T came over and the rest was history…until it had to be replaced in 1927. Replaced it was…with the Model A, or rather the second iteration of Model A. Here, the Model A brought about many modern attributes. Unlike the Model T’s unusual pedal and gear layout, the Model A had the conventional layout that we see in manual transmission-equipped cars to this day. It also offered multiple body styles. As time passed by, these cars found a new use – as hot rods! Yes, that’s what’s become of this particular 1933 Ford Model A Roadster Hot Rod, with its spicy 383 Stroker, automatic transmission and aftermarket camshaft, plus many other things. With just under 1,200 miles on it since all that makeover work was carried out, this Portland-based car represents something quirky for those who dare.

Think hot rod, and chances are you’ll come up with something based on a Ford Model A. The Model A, following on from the nomenclature set by the fabled Model T, is a prime candidate for custom builds, just like our featured 1932 Ford Model A Roadster Hot Rod. This car has reportedly been subject to a detailed restoration: a Stage 3 chassis-based build that combines traditional styling with modern engineering. It’s now been fitted with a Chevrolet 350ci V8 coupled to a Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission.
This 1969 Ford Mustang Fastback presents as a classic muscle icon with a strong blend of vintage character & modern performance upgrades. Finished in what the seller believes is its original black paint, the car shows well from a distance while honestly noted as a “20-footer” with minor blemishes. Under the hood, a Blueprint 347ci NA V8 paired with long-tube headers, a custom radiator, & a 5-speed manual transforms the driving experience. Nearly all mechanical components have been refreshed, giving the car the feel of a mechanically brand-new build while still preserving its classic looks & original charm.
Ford’s Bronco was the first Sport Utility Vehicle – that’s SUV to you and me – to be developed by Ford. When it was released in 1966, it became clear that the Blue Oval had knocked it out of the park on their first try. The Bronco would be a sales success, with five generations made until 1996, then a twenty five year hiatus and a fine sixth generation that continues on sale to this day. Owning a classic Bronco is a bucket list item for many, and we’ve got one vehicle up for grabs today. Here’s a second-generation 1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT up for sale in Downey, California. The second generation was introduced in 1978, making this vehicle straight from the first year of production. It’s got under 95,000 miles on the clock, a 400ci V8 under the hood and a nice green two-tone color theme about it. A Marti report is included with the sale.
With its funky removable doors and option of a removable hardtop that can be replaced with a soft top, Ford’s Bronco is truly an off-roader like no other. Even today, the sixth-generation Bronco offers these features, rivaled only by the Jeep Wrangler. Ford started making Broncos in 1966 and ran through five generations by 1996. Then, they took a 25-year break before resuming Bronco production in 2021. Today’s 1975 Ford Bronco comes from the first generation and has got a punchy 302ci V8 to move it along. That, its aftermarket sound system, aftermarket wheels and just 96,957 miles make it a formidable contender for anyone seeking a classic four-by-four that can still engage in some spirited mud-plugging or trail bashing. If that sounds like you, contact us as we can hook you up with this Arizona-based Bronco.
There’s something appropriately gangster about Thirties Fords, perhaps its down to their prominent showing in the silent films of the era. The 1932 Ford was produced in Model B, Model 18 and Model 40 forms, with a slew of body styles. The Tudor for example, was a two-door sedan, while the Fordor had, can you guess, four doors. As time passed on, these cars were noticed to be excellent for hot-rodding. That’s what we have here, a 1934 Ford Model 40 Tudor Sedan Hot Rod from Marlow, Oklahoma with just 13,077 miles to its name. This eye-catching vintage Ford comes with hydraulic air-lift suspension, a V8, and an automatic gearbox too.
Ford’s 1932 range was an all-new line-up of three variants, namely Model B, Model 18 and Model 40. Succeeding the successful Model A, the 1932 range was made in many forms, including as a two and four door sedan (Tudor and Fordor in Ford speak), the Deuce two-door coupe which was a name reserved for 1932 models only, a convertible, and even a pickup truck-styled body for load carrying. Today, these Thirties Fords have found a new life as being platforms for some pretty diverse hot rods. Take this South Carolina-based 1932 Ford Model B Dearborn Deuce Roadster Highboy Hot Rod as an example. It’s got a powerful Roush 351 Windsor V8 under the hood, a Tremec gearbox, Wilwood brakes and style that will take your breath away. Talk to us if you’d like to give this 3,649-mile baby a home.

Quick, talk to us via DM, email, phone, pigeon, whatever takes your fancy because we suspect that this red beauty won’t hang around for long.
