Up for auction is a 1931 Ford A-V8 Coupe. This car was built over 12 years ago and I have come to the decision to put her up for bid. I have other projects that are waiting in line and it’s time to get busy. The one thing that should be said here is...this car is (MHO) dependable! It’s been on numerous reliability runs as well as making routine trips to Bakersfield HH Reunion, Paso Robles, etc without having a lick of trouble. You couldn’t ask for a better drive train when traveling on the freeway or around town. You may notice there is no E-brake Lever so please be aware and there is a minor amount of rust on the passenger side cowl. This was discovered when the car was stripped down to bare metal after the roof was chopped. See pictures as they indicate the worst of it. This car has appeared in various magazine and publications including David Perry’s Hotrod Pinups 1 & 2 This is clear titled as a 1931 Ford Model-A. For those interested bidders that have never owned an old car – remember…that’s what this is! An old car doesn’t drive, stop, or steer like your new (insert what you drive here) but, they're a whole lot more fun to drive! This is in "driver" condition or you could redo for show (depending on what your into). I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. If you have questions please ask away…I’ll be happy to answer all that I can. If you would like more pictures please let me know. I have done my best to describe this item. Car is sold with no warranties and/or guantees. Shipping arrangements will be handled by winning bidder. I will be happy to help within reason. A $500.00 non refundable deposit is due immediately through Paypal after auction - balance is due within 3 days of auction end. Thanks for looking at my auction and good luck!
