THIS AUCTION IS FOR A 1930 FORD MODEL A DELUXE RUMBLE SEAT ROADSTER. IT HAS THE DUAL SIDE MOUNTS WITH REAR MOUNTED TRUNK. IT HAS COWL LIGHTS, LEATHER INTERIOR, RADIATOR QUAIL MASCOTT. 6 NEW TIRES. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN MY TOWN AND JUST AROUND THE CORNER FROM ME SINCE 1972. IT BELONGED TO A MAURICE PICKETT WHO OWNED IT SINCE THAT TIME TILL HIS DEATH APROX 12 YEARS AGO. IT HAS BEEN GARAGED SINCE 1994. ITS ONE OF THOSE CARS THAT EVERYONE TRIED TO PURCHASE BUT HE WOULD NEVER SELL IT. HE WAS ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO WAS IN LOVE WITH HIS CAR. HE WOULD TAKE IT TO ALL THE LOCAL SHOWS AND TO BOOTH BAY HARBOR SHOW THAT IS APROX 2 AND A HALF HOURS FROM HERE. ALWAYS GOT RIBBONS AND TROPHYS. THE CAR WAS AN EXCELLENT DRIVER. HIS DAUGHTER NOW OWNS THE CAR AND HATES TO PART WITH IT BUT FINANCES FORCES SALE. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN OFFERED FOR SALE AND WILL ONLY BE OFFERED ON EBAY. YOU NEED TO BID TO BUY THE CAR. THERE IS NO BUY IT NOW PRICE. SORRY BUT SHE NEEDS TO GET THE MOST THAT SHE CAN. PLEASE DO NOT ASK THE RESERVE AS IT IS AN AUCTION. ALL SHE CAN HOPE FOR IS THAT IT GOES TO A GOOD HOME AND SOMEONE WILL TAKE CARE OF IT LIKE HER DAD. WE PULLED THE CAR OUT OF THE BARN AND BROUGHT IT TO MY SHOP TO CLEAN IT UP A BIT. WE DIDNT GET CRAZY, WE LEFT SOME FOR YOU TO DO. WE DID GET THE CAR RUNNING AND IT RUNS LIKE A TOP! WE ALSO HAVE SOME PAPER WORK. THE OLD BILL OF SALE WHEN HE PURCHASED THE CAR, A FEW PAGES OF PRICES ON EVERYTHING HE DID TO THE CAR, INCLUDING A REBUILT ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. OF COURSE I DONT KNOW HOW MANY MILES HAVE BEEN PUT ON SINCE THEN. WE FIGURE THERE ARE APPROX 500 MILES A YEAR PUT ON THE CAR. ALL I CAN SAY IS IT RUNS AND SOUNDS NICE! I DID FIND THE SIDE CURTAINS AND TIRE COVERS UNDER THE SEAT BUT THEY WILL NEED TO BE CLEANED. ALL THE LIGHTS WORK, COWL LIGHTS WORK, HORN, ETC.. I DID NOTICE A LITTLE BIT OF OIL DRIPPAGE UNDER THE CAR AFTER IT HAD BEEN RUNNING BUT I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS NORMAL. REMEMBER THE CAR HAS BEEN OFF THE ROAD FOR THE BETTER PART OF 16 YEARS AND WILL PROBABLY NEED A LITTLE GOING OVER. THE PAINT IS FAIR. THERE IS A LITTLE CHIP AND SCRATCH HERE AND THERE BUT THIS SHOWS ITS VINTAGE CHARECTER.
