So after spending the last year or more looking for a decent Model A Tudor, I logged on to Canadian site yesterday morning for my usualy couple day check of the forsale section. Low and behold a really clean looking A on the other side of the country, with such a good price on it I had to look into it. So after looking into shipping, and figuring even with shipping I couldn't buy anything this nice within a 12-16 hour drive for nearly the same cash, called and made the deal last night.
I'm just a little excited, hopefully the car will be in my garage by mid May, the guy who I am going to get to move it will be a week or two until its picked up. I was joking with the Mrs last night that I am having a love affair with an 81 year old. Without further ado... some pictures. I assume I would have been told "this thread is worthless without pictures.
So the plan in my head right now. Fix the couple electrical issues, and drive the tires off it for a year or two (since I am getting married this summer). Once the wedding is paid off slowly gather parts to end up with a somewhat traditional build, chopped 3-4", 4" in front, and drop the rear 3-4", toss in an 8BA or 59A, etc.
