Model A Coupe Dig

yes, a "very" soft brush. or a wire brush.

 

That is awesome! Wish I could find something like that, it's next to impossible to find a parts in va... I've been trying and all I have been able to come up with is a couple of frames

 

This is a gulch find, not a barn find. Whole 'nuther method to washing. On the serious side, nice find.

 

I didn't get to dig on it today. My dad and I went to an auction today in Alden, KS. The gas tank looks to be rotted out on one side and the deck lid is there but it is rough. We should be going back Monday to finish the job.

I'll take some more pics then. I won't be using a paddle boat duck to be pulling it out but my idea is just as crazy. I plan on putting it on a junk car hood and pulling it up the ditch with the truck.

Oh and the other car looks like it is a late 30s Chevy.

Looks like you have almost enough goodies to put that coupe back on the road - I'll be watching this one!

 

Nice auction haul. That 28-29 hood fits Fordor and Cabriolet only. Bob

 

Any more on the dig?

 

Updates? That looks crazy

 

reminds me of this one.....

 

Reminds me of when I had to dig up my 1931 Dodge engine....

 

Looks like I need to start digging for cars instead of lookin in barns and in the bushes

 

Pass me my shovel I'M GOIN' IN!

 

Damn! Because of this thread, the first thing I thought of when I woke up this morning was a model A roadster that I found over 30 years ago buried up to the top of the doors at the edge of a sandy dry river bed. Now it's haunting me. Hmm...I wonder if it's still there or if I could even find it again.

 

WOW! like someone else said, it dosn't look all that bad! we'll see when it is out and on level ground. good luck

 

While up in the woods camping last summer I found most of a teens or twenties touring car buried. This thread makes me want to go and dig it up! Subscribed!

 

I predict this thread will be the cause of a rash of mysterious holes appearing all over North America.

 

keep on digging, gold is always some work

 

Well is it out yet?? If you haven't noticed there are many anticipating the outcome of this dig.

 

Other than the hole in the gas tank, I'm pretty sure that will buff out!

 

We're waiting.

 

I have been busy the last couple of days. The dig will resume tomorrow morning.

 

Can't wait to see it out

 

Did you get it out?

 

Is this a dead end thread?

 

Yea, just like the guy making the phone call for the 32 Ford.
