Description of 1927 Ford T Bucket Andy Rodfather Brizio Instant T Built in the 70's Hot Rod

Andy Brizio Instant T from the 70'sThis is your chance to own a piece of Hot Rodding History! The Late Andy "The Rodfather" Brizio was one of the hottest Hot Rodders to come out of the late 60's and by 1970 after winning "America's Most Beautiful Roadster" Award the highest award in Hot Rodding Andy was in full swing in his co owned Champion Speed Shop in Northern California. In the early to Mid 70's he and friend Steve Archer came together to design and build a custom shortened Touring body that would give people a little more leg room and the option to haul 4 people. Steve was one of the best body builders of all time. His Bodies would go on to win AMBR in 78'. Andy used C & M Plating Works do all his Chrome and there work has proved the test of time. For upholstery he used the duo of Kenny Foster andGary Carpenter in Sacramento whose interiors can also be found in AMBR cars. Andy's cars were built to be driven and he was known for driving his AMBR Award winning Pickup all around the country. Now this is your chance to own a true Hot Rod treasure. This T was built in the early 70's at Champion Speed Shop and has passed ownership at least 4 times the previous owner before my father was a man who had a stroke and left it outside under a tree for a number of years and the car had become weather damaged. So 10 years ago we began to restore it back to its show car state it was once in. All the chrome is original C&M and looks great but shows its age. The original engine was a 1963 Corvette 327 340hp but was seized so the motor went back to a Corvette owner that needed it for a restoration project and was replaced with a Fully built 450hp high revving Sprint Car engine. It has all forged internals, we installed pistons with lower compression and installed a less aggressive camshaft. The Heads are Ported Dart Iron Eagle 230's with 2.08 /1.65 Ferrea valve, and offset Scorpion Rocker Arms. $5000 in the top end alone. We didn't want to run a blower but insteadopted for a mean high revvingSmall Block!
The Paint was redone and instead of the original orange and brown we went with Blue and Green very subtle and in the sun or with proper lighting it really sparkles. The interior wood was redone as well in pearl white keystone material with real Swarovski Crystals imported from Austria as buttons!
Transmission is TH40, Steering Corvai, Front Spindles and Brakes are 1954 Chevy rear end is 1957 Chevy
The gauges were swapped out in the 80's for a Modern SW set but we always wanted to put back the originals but never did to keep track of the mileage which is not at just over 6,000 miles.
My father is 83 and with Andy just passing away he decided now was the time to find a new home for his beloved Hot Rod, to hopefully someone that will continue to care for it. We listed it with a buy it now but are open to offers. Feel free to ask any questions we have more pictures than we could share so we added a video. We can asist with shipping and can obtain quotes as needed.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1kt8eYSaW4&t=43s
