CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER | |
---|---|
For sale is this '31 Model A Sport Coupe, in great cosmetic shape for shows and in good, reliable mechanical condition for Sunday drives. It features a rumble seat and rear folding luggage rack. The odometer shows about 13,300 miles, but true mileage is unknown - this is not a parts-matching car.We bought this car out of a local fudge shop in 2016, where it had been resting for a short time at the end of a long ownership period. This previous owner enjoyed the car for many years as a member of the Model A club, even taking the car from Texas to Tennessee on one trip. Since our purchase in 2016, it's been driven regularly on local trips and garage kept.-The previous owner conducted a frame-up restoration in 1971, including refinished wheels and rechromed trim. No wrecks, rust, or bondo on the all steel frame; great body work; and good paint. The landau top was replaced shortly before our purchase and has been taken care of since - it's not once seen rain-The engine and transmission were rebuilt to stock specifications in 1990. The car has electric start, lever ignition, and left hand throttle. It runs on regular unleaded fuel, and has a single-plate clutch (requiring double-clutch on downshifts). The electric system has a fuse, alternator conversion, and a good battery-Light maintenance and upgrades since purchase in 2016, including: twin LED brake lights, oil change, tune up, and recent carburetor rebuild (January 2020). We have a stack of receipts for this stuff-The car features two full-size spare wheels with covers. Seat belts have been installed. The interior fabric is in great shape without stains or rips (same with the rumble seat vinyl)There are no stories with this one: it's got a clean title and it's a good, honest car that prefers to be driven, like all classics. Thus the sale, as we have too many competing priorities and projects to give this car the love it deserves. Every time it's pulled out of the garage, strangers walking by will stop and admire and ask questions. We're looking for a good new home for this people-pleaser, ideally in the garage of an enthusiast who will cherish and drive it!More photos or details shots available on request - but no additional details are available on rebuild or other history, unfortunately. |
