    Saw the Wade coupe is up for grabs and dont think a lot of people have seen it in motion or heard how truely violent it sounds so thought I’d share this video that was just posted of it tearing around Kansas City.

    If you are unfamiliar with the wade coupe it has a good chunk of history here on the hamb. @B*** built it, Keith Tardel I believe built the motor and did a lot of the finishing of it. Think @Kevin Lee has had his hands in it as well as others.

    here’s a link to the listing https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1930-ford-model-a-wade-coupe/

    I can’t see this leaving the city for under six figures. Super nice hot rod.

    Likely to be one of the most expensive Model As ever. Awesome car. From what I understand about the build the BaT ad doesnt realy give B*** the credit he deserves.

    It’s the baddest Model A coupe around but the market is soft, so it’s hard to tell but I don’t think it’ll reach 6 figures. Who knows? I hope I’m wrong.

    Brian B*** posted that’s what it hammered for. The six figure number may be after fees etc that auctions typically add.

    I was suprised it didn't sell for more. You couldn't build half that car for the cost.
