Vehicle Detail
This 1931 Ford model A Cabriolet had a very good professional restoration some years ago.The sheet metal is sound, the chrome is in good shape and the upholstery is not worn. The drive train is super good. No fluid leaks or other troubling signs.I stored the car in october and it started as if it was run the day before. Brakes function as they should and the glass is all good. Now to the weak spots. The top is presentable. However there is a small hole that have been patched and, there is some damage to the interior right carrying strap and staining to the top in this area. I believe this to be mouse damage. There is a 1/4" tear in the driver's side backrest. Something I may have done with a screwdriver-I am that dumb on occasions. The paint shows some wear with chips and crazing in some areas. TThe heater works great but I take it off in the summer because it tends to let heat into the cabin- even with the shutoff valve closed. The only alterations I've made was the addition of turn signals which use the existing lights and a master electric shutoff switch. I try to use the pictures and the text to point out the flaws. But I can miss things .I strongly recommend that the car be inspected before bidding. I do offer inspection privileges after delivery. I will return full payment less Ebay costs if the buyer is not satisfied for any reason as long as the car is returned in like condition.But, this can be expensive for the buyer..Full payment before pickup. The buyer is responsible for shipping. I'll assist as necessary. This is a fine car in a great body style combining the best features of coupe and roadster. I had purchased a 2004 22' Pace trailer to transport the car from Pennsalvania and I've been using it to garage it ever since. I will include the trailer for an additional $4000. I will try to answer any questions by email or you can phone: (860) 354-0287.
