I was chasing through fields changing electrical irrigation meters on thursday and just peeked inside a shed in the middle of a farm way out of the way and saw a perfect Model A just sitting under a bunch of crates and tires. I saw only the headlights at first and uncovered the complete in every way Model A. I contacted the owner and he agreed to sell. I'm missing a cruise saturday to get it on a trailer and get it home! I have driven by this place thousands of times and never new it was there! You never know! Scott will try to get a couple of pics on here for me but you can go to my '53 album and see it there.
Hope you don't chop it up! Those full fenders look to be in great shape,any plans? I guess Scott can do some photoshop magic.
My father-in-law restores Model A's and belongs to a large Model A club here in Oregon. I think we will have a father/son project and restore the running gear and leave the body alone. He has several vintage speed parts that he has not used and I hope we can use them on this. I sent him pictures and he's excited!
Cool A! My pap had lots of them over the years but don't think I ever saw a front bumper Like that on any of them. It looks pretty cool, grille shell looks like a 29, but hub caps look like 30, what year is it? Cograts nice find.
nice find, looks like '31 with that insert at the top of the grill shell. Weird looking front bumper... will be a real neat ol cruiser .
What a great find while working ! Looks as it was parked there and left all these years ! Please don't chop it up into hotrod ! It's all there and looks to be a pretty good condition too ! I am also curious about the front bumper too . I have never seen that one either . Jim
I think I'm going to remove the body and fenders and give the ch***is to my father in law for a few months of his magic and then mount the body, re gl***, and re-wire and drive it like it looks right now! The door dent pushed out easily with no wrinkles. The other side is perfect, both windows roll down, all the stuff is there. He also has a 53, and a 54 Studebaker, and a 30 Nash that is complete. I get to see those on Monday! That front bumper is from a 40 or 41 Chevy car (I think).
