I have been looking for a 1928-31 model a sedan...was planning to go Minnesota this summer to buy one...anyway i found the ford barn and they have a for sale and wanted section.. i posted what i was looking for, within 2 hours i had a reply...its a 31 model a sedan, the guy lives in VA and is going to bring it to Asheville NC a 6 hr ride for him. it will be 4 hour ride for me...the car comes with a extra cowl and he thru in a set of slant windshied doors plus a few mis. parts.....the bad part is the sedan doors are shot [to bad to repair] so ill have to find a set.anyway i could go on and on...heres what i got for a $1000..i pick it up next sat.
for some reason i couldnt get the pics to load...i think there to big..ill try again in a bit.
 
the pics are to big...i dont know how to resize them...oh its only the body ..if someone will resize them for me...
 
one more time

the right door is caved in really bad...and the left door is just the outer shell.nothing much behind it..if u look at the pics the bottom of the door is pulled away about 6 inches...
 
Pretty good find!!!
There is MUCH worse out there!!!
Can't go wrong for only a $1,000 bucks!!
Atleast now all u gotta find is doors... Not
a WHOLE CAR!! lol
 
Those doors are for sure repairable you have from the belt line up thats a nice body for a grand even out west here it would fetch a fair price good job .now it's time to get to work
 
Mine is in the same condition here is a pic. got a 41 flathead V8 for it and will build a boxed frame.
