Spot the Model A

I liked that song too.
I liked the body style in the "shorty shorts" better than the Model A :D
 
Funny song! Nice 28/29 Fordor.

I'm just the opposite of that song. I look silly with clothes on.
 
The door handles are upside down on the Model A. I discovered this after watching the video many times.

Only peripherally related to A's, but kinda fun. But all too true!

I'm no expert, and I have not heard it run or driven it. However, based strictly on the ad, I would say 'yes'. However, the ad is wrong in one respect- That car is NOT rare. Unless the seller meant that it is undercooked.

Hopefully you won't loose the deal by posting it for all to see.

I just didnt fall off the turnip truck and I calculated that into the risk of posting it here ,thanks for your two cents though and I will assume that we are all gentlemen here so I was hoping that the people with the "expert viewpoint" would weight in and help me out before sealing the deal.

All the Best ,Fashion Frank

Just looking at the ad it is a nice slant windshield sedan. 12K is not that unreasonable, but then again I am not there to look at it. If are new to the Model A, the brakes are mechanical unless they were changed to hydro. Make sure there are no knocks or grinding noises in the usual places. So as long as all of the safety equipment is up to snuff and she drives straight and stops straight I saw go for it.

Hey Mike nice to meet ya and thanks for the help, this is exactly the kind of criticsm in regard to the car that I was looking for .

I have been riding and working on Harley's all my life ( currently selling a 2006 Road King Classic fully chromed out to go towards a car if you know anyone ) and I am now interested in a Model A to take the wife and kids around and spend more time with them instead of out riding all day with my pals!.

You are already assuring me in my train of thought ,I was thinking the exact same thing as you, no gringing in between gears, brakes ,cooling etc. etc.

You are also dead on ,cant really make a correct call unless your there in real time at the car ,but I just wanted to get a general idea if I was all wet before I sign any papers or take it for a test ride.

Again nice to meet you sir and thanks for the help and perhaps some of the other enlightened members will chime in and help me out .
All the Best ,Fashion Frank
