They are still out there. This Model A RPU was just snatched out of a Barn somewhere in the Midwest this afternoon. Have faith.
damn nice find man... I am jealous for sure... I have a sore neck from lookin in all the garages and yards that I drive by. Haaa damn I want it.... sell it to me.
The DP-90 tells me this "undiscover gem" is more of an unfinished restoration. Would still love to own it, but you should see the '28 Model A Tudor I just bought.
1. Its not mine but a friends 2. Yes it might be for sale. 3. Thats cheap Tan Enamel not DP 4. It runs and drives.
I went to a small town near here today and saw a 1931 Model A fordor in an open face garage. There was also something dark next to it. No one was at home. I went in the shed and the dark car is a 1927 phaeton. Both have 1973 license plates and inspection stickers. Both cars were probably restored when parked. The A's paint is getting rusty. The interior is perfect. The T IS perfect. Perfect paint, upholstery, top, It looks GOOD! A neighbor told me the old guy died many years ago and his brother in Shreveport has owned the cars ever since but hasnt touched them. Maybe I will call him. Maybe....I dont have any money right now and a gal is bugging me to buy her 1935 Ford coupe. Theres just too many ol cars.
drove it on the trailor yeah its still out there, they made a bunch of them! I really should have kept it. the lights even worked.
Hahhahah, Carl, this is Rapid City, we get little snow. In fact we can hit 70 in the middle of winter! To those that Pmd me, I will keep ya informed. he just got this thing home, if it does sell, he hasnt even thought of a price. We did talk about it tonight.
Found this coupe late last spring in a garage in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan - they are still out there.
