Thanks everyone for your responses. Appreciate it!

Hey everybody! Can someone please interpret this number? The SOS I have never seen,Ralph

Thanks Jeff! I appreciate your insight and help in figuring out if it was a good and right buy. Ralph

Thanks Larry......I am not going to travel to far too fast so I will probably give them a shot. I have not heard of the Lucas brand before. I do know that I want white walls. I am looking at another frame that has good tires and they are white walls and so that may be an option,Ralph

You know.........I have a mustang with 670 supercharged horsepower and a camaro with 455 horsepower but I find myself consumed by the Model A. If it is a sickness I am certainly not interested in the cure. Please don't call the doctor,Ralph

Mike, at first I was going to put the 30 wheels on the 29 but I really wanted white walls. When I got up to the place where the chassis was for sale he had a set of the Sears Allstate tires. I saw on the forum about mixed emotions on them but I got the set for 100.00 and they look to be in great...

Did get to hear it run and also drove it around the yard. It fired right up and you could see the edges of the new gaskets on the oil pan and head. My plans are to borrow the engine for now and put in the 29 so that I can drive it and then next year have the 29 engine rebuilt and reunited with...

All.......just an update on my 29 town sedan. I located and purchased a 30 rolling chassis. The rolling chassis has a recently rebuilt engine and fairly new tires. I also got a set of Sears Allstate white wall tires. They still have the nubs on them. I am going to take the rebuilt engine out of...

It does not have a title,Ralph

Thanks everyone! I spoke to the seller today and I am going to look at it Saturday evening. At first I thought I would just move the body off the original chassis and put on this rolling one. The more I think about it I believe it makes more sense to just swap engines. I can enjoy the car now...

It makes sense to just swap the engine. I can have the original rebuilt at some point and put back in the car. That way I can enjoy the car now. What is a reasonable price to pay for this running rolling chassis? How long would it take to swap the engine or should I just swap engine and...

Here is what I have got and what I have found.......my engine in my 29 needs most likely a rebuild. It does not run at this time. I found a rolling chassis with a freshly rebuilt engine and includes the 30 radiator. The owner says the brakes are good all around and the tires appear to be new.

All-Will a 29 town sedan body fit on top of a 30 chassis? Ralph

All- Just wanted to say Happy 4th of July to you and to remind everyone that FREEDOM AINT'T FREE and it absolutely comes with a cost. I know that may not be proper English but it is for me since I am from the south. The freedoms that we enjoy today are from the sacrifices of the men and women...

Thanks Jack! No truer words could be spoken and I am a babe in the model A world and just the help I have received on this forum shows just that. Truly amazing! I am still trying to watch all your you-tube videos. I like the one with the radiator flow test,Ralph

All- Just a shout out to all the dads out there and hoping that you have a great Father's Day today! For those who have lost thier dad you still have the memories. My Dad says he wants Cracker Barrel today and so shall it be,Ralph

So it looks like that the A art is a natural progression of the love for the Model A. It is also confirmation to me that I am truly infected and that I am not interested in having a cure for my malady! Tom.....the above picture is of the train set I referenced earlier. It(not shown in picture)...

Tom.....I will keep an eye out for you........I visit the thrift stores regularly. I purchased a jack Daniels train set about a month ago. It was given only to distributors of jack Daniels. Supposedly very few sets were produced and one sold on eBay for 300.00. I got the whole set with track and...

Thanks guys! I bought some more today and I will put them on later. It was a great day for model a and t art as I picked up 4 pieces. It was also a good day for 45's and some lp's! You don't know if you don't go! Jeff....love your new car and pgerhardt I love the art! Well done! Ralph

All- Just wanted to share some more model a art that I found today. I think the love for the model a can go beyond the car and into art and just enhance the experience. I found this today at the thrift store and it is hand signed by Dalhart Windberg. Got it for 21.00 and took it to hobby lobby...
