More about the car:
The car started life as a well-known local stock restored Model A. In 2023 the coupe was in a collision taking it off the road for over a year. I acquired it through the local Model A Club and began to transition it to an early styled hot-rod. The motor is a true 327 L79 that has been rebuilt. The frame is a new chassis built by Commando Hot Rods and Riley Automotive. The interior remains stock with the exception of the shifter, tunnel and steering wheel along with Stewart Warner gauges. Wheels are 1940 ford and brakes are 40 Ford. The axle is a 34 dropped by Greg at Ansen’s.
About the AHRF Hot Rod of the Month Contest
The Hot Rod of the Month Contest is a special opportunity available only to Foundation Members. Active Members have a two-week period EACH MONTH in which to enter a car they own by providing photos and a description of their car. During the following two-week period, all Members, whether they have entered a car or not, can individually vote for their favorite car.
The car with the most Member votes at the end of each month will be the AHRF Hot Rod of the Month and will be featured on the AHRF website and on social networks.
At the end of each calendar year, the Advisory Board of the Foundation will select one car, as the AHRF Hot Rod of the Year, from that year’s Hot Rod of the Month winners. The Hot Rod of the Year will be given special publicity, and the car will be maintained in an ongoing catalog of AHRF Hot Rod of the Year winners.
