This ’34 Ford hot rod was built in 2020 by West Coast Choppers utilizing a three-window coupe body from Gibbon Fiberglass Reproductions. The body is mounted on a Total Cost Involved chassis, and power is provided by a 383ci Chevrolet stroker V8 mated to a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic transmission. The car is also equipped with four-wheel disc brakes, air-ride suspension, a dropped front axle, adjustable rear coilovers, and billet aluminum wheels measuring 18″ and 19″ in diameter. The interior features bucket seats trimmed in black leather and also incorporates electric windows, lap seatbelts, red instruments, and a Vintage Air HVAC system. This hot rod was acquired by the seller around a year ago and is now offered with a clean Texas title in the name of the seller’s LLC.
The ’34 Ford fiberglass body is finished in black and features rear-hinged doors, tinted windows, and louvered engine covers. A ceramic coating has reportedly been applied to the paintwork. The seller notes various rock chips and states that the actuator for the trunk lid has occasional difficulty opening and closing. A paint crack and scratch are shown up close in the gallery below.
Billet aluminum wheels from Curtis Speed Equipment measure 18” up front and 19” out back and are shod with Excelsior tires. Braking is via Wilwood discs at all four corners. The car is equipped with air-ride suspension, a dropped front axle, and QA1 adjustable coilovers in the rear. The compressor for the air suspension is reported to have a loose ground.
The cabin houses bucket seats trimmed in black leather with white stitching. A Vintage Air HVAC system has been installed along with a JVC CD stereo, electric windows, and lap belts.
A two-spoke steering wheel frames red gauges from Classic Instruments, including a 140-mph speedometer with an inset tachometer. A pressure gauge for the air-ride system is mounted under the dash. The six-digit odometer shows approximately 10 miles.
The 383ci Chevrolet stroker V8 features an Edelbrock intake manifold and an aluminum radiator.
The car was built on a TCI chassis, and power is sent to the rear wheels via a Turbo-Hydramatic three-speed automatic transmission.
The car is titled in Texas as a 1934 Ford two door using vehicle identification number 007134, which is stamped on the car as shown above. The title carries an “exempt” notation in the odometer reading section.
