Price: US $18,500.00 SOLD OUT
Three owner, 83,000 mile time-piece. Total provenance including original title with letter of request from the original owner, Mary Shipman. Also included are a few shots of articles about her concerning her history with this Model A her husband bought her new in 1931. I also have a VHS video of her being interviewed but it requires the older format video player. All this comes with the car. The second owner, a fellow towns person to Mary, reconditioned the car by doing an off chassis restoration, painting the frame on out to the body with a beautiful black gloss paint. It was reassembled with all new rubber mounts and bushings, new seals and complete original material headliner and seats. Even has the original steering wheel Mary held on to all those days going into town. So this Model A is an extremely clean and original looking representative of what was made back then. During the restoration, the following upgrades were done to the car: -Hydraulic brake system (40 Ford style) -Synthetic brake fluid. -12 Volt system with alternator, Top grade battery -Turn signals -Quartz headlights Just recently, I completed the restoration by installing -completely new wiring harnesses throughout the car. -I also have a battery kill switch for when storing and for security. -Carburetor was professionally rebuilt, all new linkage, choke control rod and fuel line were installed at the same time. Also reconditioned and painted intake manifold / gaskets. - Besides the new core radiator, installed were a new sealed bearing water pump and OEM style cast fan / pulley assembly, all new hoses and drain valve. Radiator cap with water temp indicator. Since I've had the car, as I have also improved on it's reliability and fun to drive, I showed the car and did some fair share of winning, including Best In Show at a large So Cal meet. Then Best Ford and Veterans Choice a few times.. It's a looker and fun to drive. Buyer is responsible for transporting. I do know of a few closed carriers that I could refer you to. I'm available for delivery within 300 miles for a fee using an open trailer. Let me know if you have any questions about my car. For Sale to a good home only....
