HELLO! WE HAVE FOR AUCTION THIS VERY NICE 1931 FORD MODEL A TUDOR SEDAN. IT WAS EXTERNALLY RESTORED YEARS AGO, HOWEVER IS STILL LOOKIN' GOOD. I PURCHASED IT FROM AN OLDER MAN WHO NEW VERY LITTLE ABOUT THE CAR, SO I HAVE NO BACKGROUND INFO TO SHARE. I WILL START BY LISTING THE GOOD POINTS: NICE OLDER PAINT, NO PATCH PANELS OR BONDO, NEWER BEAUTIFULLY INSTALLED TOP, NEW HUBCAPS AND LUG NUTS, REBUILT CARB., NEW SEDIMENT BOWL, AIR MAZE, FUEL SHUTOFF VALVE AND FUEL LINES, HEADLIGHT AND HORN CONDUIT SET, WINDSHEILD GASKET, SPARE TIRE COVER, RUNNING BOARD MATS, REBUILT GAS GAUGE. SHE RUNS AND SOUNDS GOOD. SHIFTS WELL AND CLUTCH IS GOOD. STEERING SEEMS TIGHT. HEADLIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHT WORK FINE AS DOES THE HORN. (SORRY, IT IS NOT AN AOOGAH HORN) GLASS IS GOOD. IT IS HARD TO SEE, BUT THE FRONT BUMPER IS CHROME AND THE REARS ARE PAINTED DOVE GRAY LIKE THE BELT LINE. I AM INCLUDING SOME NEW PARTS I DID NOT GET PUT ON YET. ANTIQUE RUNNING BOARD LUGGAGE RACK AND SUIT CASE INCLUDED! NOW THE NEGATIVES: SOME RUST BUBBLES ON LOWER COWEL PANELS, SCRATCH ON REAR FENDER, SOME SMALL CHIPS IN PAINT, THERE ARE SMALL 1" CRACKS IN A COUPLE OF THE FENDERS AND SOME SMALL RUST BUBBLES AS WELL. NO DENTS OR BONDO. THERE IS SOME CRAZING IN THE PAINT UNDER THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW (SEE PICTURE), THE PAINT ON THE WHEELS HAS SOME RUST BUBBLES, BUT NOTHING MAJOR, THERE IS NO INTERIOR TO SPEAK OF OTHER THAN THE TWO FRONT SEATS THAT HAVE SEAT COVERS OVER THE ORIGINAL FABRIC. NO REAR SPRINGS, JUST THE BOARDS. THE TOP LEAKED AT ONE TIME AND RUSTED SOME HOLES UNDER THE REAR SEATING AREA.(SEE PHOTO) IT IS NOT REAL BAD AND COULD BE EASILY FIXED. THE UNDERCARRIAGE HAS SURFACE RUST, BUT NO HOLES. THE RUNNING BOARDS HAVE SOME RUST HOLES BUT STILL VERY SOLID. THE OIL PLUG WILL NOT COME OUT SO I AM INCLUDING A REFURBISHED OIL PAN AND GASKET SET. THE BRAKES WILL NEED SOME ATTENTION AS THEY WILL STOP THE CAR BUT NOT VERY WELL. TIRES HAVE GOOD TREAD AND HOLD AIR BUT THEY ARE CRACKING ON THE SIDES. THE MILEAGE IS SUPPOSED TO BE ACCURATE HOWEVER THE ODOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER DO NOT WORK. (I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR APPX. 5 MILES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT) I PURCHASED IT AS A LONG TERM PROJECT AND DISCOVERED THAT I DO NOT HAVE THE PATIENCE OR ABILITY TO DO SOME OF THE COMPLICATED REPAIRS AND CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY SOMEONE ELSE TO DO THEM. SO MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN. I AM SURE I HAVE FORGOTTEN SOME DETAILS SO DO NOT BE AFRAID ASK QUESTIONS. HAPPY BIDDING! NO RESERVE!
