1930 Ford Coupe, with Rumble Seat decklid. A project I was collecting parts for that I have no time for, and I can use some cash for other projects in the works. Bought this from a neighbor who drove it into his garage 40 years ago, tore it apart and started to strip down the body with the intent to restore. That never happened, and after trying for years to buy it from him, I finally got it. But things and needs have changed. Included with the sale is: The body with doors and the decklid, new patch panels for the front cowl and the inner wheel wells and panels for the front area of the quarters. These areas had been patched who knows how many years ago, and need to be redone, due to poor work. One wood bow in The roof needs replacing. Other than those areas the body is pretty good. But it is a 90 year old body! I have the windshield frame with gl***, which the gl*** should be replaced. The garnish moldings, and other pieces that came with the car, including the visor. The prior owner bought new body channels, but I don’t think they need replacing. New fender braces, body mounting bocks, new rumble seat hinge kit, etc…. I have older fibergl*** front fenders, heavy weight, that have never been used, along with gl*** splash aprons. I have a brand new pair of fibergl*** rear fenders from Speedway Motors, still in the boxes, I have a new Brookville Roadster perimeter frame with a pair of coil over shock mounts (not installed). Frame does have provisions for the fender brackets, but no motor mounts or suspension brackets. I have a pair of low mounting old school hot rod bucket seats I planned on using, perfect if you plan of chopping the top. I also have a Ford 9” housing I’ll throw in. I do have a registration, New York, from 1966 along with an Affidavit of sale with matching numbers, signed over to my neighbor, and notarized also, dated 1981. (NY did not have ***les back then, only registrations). Look at the pics, You’ll see what’s included. I can take additional pics of the body if you seem serious. Please, please don’t ask if it’s still available, or throw out offers without coming to look at it first. I’ll listen to offers, but face to face. $7500 seems to be a fair price.
