This Speedster is registered and titled as a 1928 Model A Speedster. It has Insert Rod bearings, Babbitt mains, Reds Header Exhaust, Weber Intake and Carburetor, Alternator, Brumfield 5.9 Head, Oversize Intake Valves, 12 volt battery, 3 Speed transmission, 4 blade plastic fan, Open Drive Line, 19” Model A Ford wheels, Model A Body front (from cowl forward) with custom sheet metal Boat Tail rear, seal beam headlights, friction shocks front, tube shocks rear, 19" Model A wheels, '31 dash, RMP dash gauge, Model A horn (loud) and era siren. The gas tank is under the Boat Tail, so it has an electric fuel pump. The folding bucket seats are vinyl from a later model van. It has a Model A Front End/Steering and Rear End (3.78:1).
I did not build this Speedster. I am building a 1930 Speedster with a wood body, but it is not quite done. I have owned a lot of Model A's since 1954 (Tudors, Fordors, Business Coupes, Sport Coupes, Cabriolets, Station Wagons and Speedsters), but my wife and I agree that the Speedster is the most fun to drive and ride in. That is why I am building another one, but I am selling this one as I do not need two.
The '28 Speedster is in good running condition. Tires have good tread, but some sidewall checking. Runs and drives really good.
The last time I had it out was the Model A Regional Meet in Kansas City and more recently at a local car show. I am asking $6500 and I can tell you I have more than twice that in the one I am building. The motor alone is worth the asking price.
I am in northwest Arkansas - 20 miles east of Rogers, AR.
