Default Re: Another nice A getting parted out

It appears to be decent fenders but one never knows until they have been "rubbed on". They may not be as nice in person. The running boards offered as originals appear to be a repro.

I cannot help but wonder if this is yet another car touted as "restored" that really was just a poor attempt at "repairing & repainting" where afterwards the reliability was just not there (poor brakes, sloppy steering, noisy trans, rust in gas tank, yada-yada) and so it was never driven. Now it has a bad reputation and so it seems like the best option is to "make it reliable" with a Chevy V-8. From the outside looking in, it has been club members who call themselves restorers who have been the root cause for many 'restored' Model-A's being turned into rods. (Think about it!!)
