This 1931 Ford Highboy is a unique roadster because it has a usable and comfortable back seat. So the design and functionality fall in-between a rumble seat car and a phaeton body... and we find that pretty cool. It allows for the classic Model A Highboy front end and an extra-sleek fiberglass body that smoothly wraps around the rear. Part of the attraction is also the quality of the details. The super-slick modern red paint, two-piece chrome windshield frame, staggered Torq Thrust polished wheels, and nicely bolstered seating give this the look and feel of a quality custom. Best of all, this head-turner was truly meant to drive thanks to the fuel-injected LT1 motor under the hood.

This roadster was made for all-around fun, and the engine bay really proves it. You have an ultra-tidy and polished style that makes this car award-worthy. But when this is also part of a fuel-injected V8 setup, you know it's ready for fun on the road whenever you are. And while you can tell there was plenty of time making the interior look tidy, the comfort of the seats and a tilt steering column also make this much more accommodating than the usual Highboy. Plus, it's always nice to know you have a back seat where passengers can be comfortable. So while we doubt too many people look at a hot rod for practicality, the level of thoughtfulness and distinction in this one makes it uniquely desirable. So don't miss this deal, call today!
