If I wanted one that badly, I'd rather pony up double that amount for a better car. Have you priced paint and body work lately? You can sink 10 to 15 grand in that right off the top depending on how much body work needs to be done. And then you have a list of to-do's with the car longer than Lincoln's funeral to address also.

The gauges are unique. Where's the ignition switch? Is it that button on top of the steering column or is that the horn button? I wonder what other cobbled up goodies lurk with this Model A? Looks like it was painted with a mop. At least all that paint globbed onto the gas tank might have stopped it from leaking.

I guess someone will buy the car and have fun, that's what it's all about.

Its been proven time and time again,buy a fresh quality restoration you save thousands of dollars and years of labor. No doubt that's the smart money move.

Some folks do enjoy a project and this appears to be a good one if your goal isn't fine point or touring class.
