While some might call this a Resto-Rod, we call it timeless. Dick Rundell’s 1928 Ford phaeton graced HOT ROD’s December 1966 cover, with Dick lowering his Hilborn-injected small block into the Model A tub. This shot was from a later date for a Rod & Custom magazine feature. What this proves is that all of the mumbo-jumbo of body mods and tricks so prevalent in hot rod builds today are unnecessary when you can take what is basically an unmodified Model A, and with the right stance, wheel/tire combo, and clean craftsmanship, build yourself such a timeless looker like Rundell’s tub that holds up from 50 years ago.
