HA! drag it home, its fixable!!

 

I know what it is! It's part of the landscape.

 

Nice "Shot Groupings"

 

HA! Say you think it's a 'thirty-deuce & stick it in ebay - somebody with more $$$ than G2 (intelligence) might end up financing your retirement !

 

make sure you put the words "easy restoration, 99% complete" in the ad.

 

I think it,s something for the vintage car boys even though it looks like they allready picked it clean.

 

OHV 4 banger, crossflow head, siamesed inlet and exhaust, updraft carbie, that exhaust manifold should make it easy to pick, but may not be a US vehicle, Australia imported whatever cars it could get from all over the world in the 20's and 30's.

Is there a brand on that coil, Lucas perhaps? May be English, Austin, Morris Vauxhaul etc. Looks like a typical Lucas coil.

Cheers, Glen.

 

Put a couple more bullet holes in it, and let it die a quasi-natural death. I appears that any efforts at extrication will only result in further damage. There is a point at which you must let 'mother nature' continue her work - ashes to ashes, rust to dust.

Ran when parked...

 

Some see junk some see gold,Might be something there to save.I don`t see any of that Rust like we have up here. Make me wonder what the frame is like.I see a front end,steering box and frame.If I came across this it would be coming with me.Everbody don`t live in a place where Model A bodys grow on trees.I get a kick out of some guys on here, they have it too good.

 

You never know ,move it to your garage for safe keeping.

 

1928 Chev,

Chassis might be saveable and would bring $100. The two port should be worth a little too.

 

I would guess its a Chevy.

Puzzle missing enough pieces that your mom would throw it out

hmmm rat rod skeleton?

Looks like that dingo ate your car and the baby

I HAVE THE BODY A OF A 28 CHEV TUDOOR IN A PILE

you pay for shipping to YOU and i'll let it go i'll even add a label on the carton " rattle ok"

 

the running boards and splash aprons look chevy to me.

 

What color you going to paint it?

 

Leave that natural patina!

 

I'm sure the brown stain will buff out.

 

Looks like ferric oxide to me.

 

It just needs a little Marvel Mystery Oil and some Turtle Wax!

 

Hell, I'd drag that home and hang it on the shop wall!

 

I know what it is!!!!


It`s old!

 

Media blast it and see if anything survives. Could be nice wall-art.

 

Hey guys, cant be a chevy or many other domestics, its right hand drive. but it does have front brakes and aprons so makes it later that 1920 for most makes. I am guessing foreign maker of some sort.

 

Has the parallel leaf springs like the Chevies and other GM models. Could have been an export model. My first thought was Chevy also.

 

Guess you are wrong! Chevy & other domestics did build right hand drive cars.

As I said before it is a 1928 Chevrolet.

 

It looks to be a 28 chevy.Right hand drive means nothing. Alot of the big companys build there cars so they could be left or right hand drive. Here is a pic of one like it as well as the engine

 

Most defiantly a 31 Henway....
