1937 Ford Model B pick-up hot rod
According to Historics this hot rod is registered on its V5 registration document as a 1937 car, but in fact is a 1932 car (Model B cars ceased production in 1934). However, the vehicle being offered at the auction bears no resemblance to what it started out as, since it has been the subject of a £110,000 transformation into what we see here.
It is powered by a 350 Chevrolet V8 5.7-litre engine mated to an automatic gearbox. The restoration/transformation was carried out by the well-known specialist Jon Golding at Home Grown Hot Rods in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. It is presented in gold metallic with open wheel configuration and the interior is finished in light brown leather and the dashboard is done in gold metallic also. Its engine is open to the elements, fuel tanks are visible and all brightwork looks shiny. Estimate: £38-£45k
