Hello everyone from Northern KENTUCKY! I stumbled on the forum the other day and have to say it’s very informative for a newby. I’m looking at a 1929 sedan that has an original numbers matching engine (matches the title) it runs, drives, and stops also tagged. It’s about an hour from where I live so not too far. My mechanic experience is mainly antique farm tractors so it doesn’t really scare me badly. There appears to be some rust starting on the lower doors and cowl area but actually for a car so old it seems solid (probably use as is and leave body alone). Just wanted to ask if there were any Achilles heels to be aware of ie “see this walk away “ the fella is asking 7200.00 it includes a top wood kit and a new vinyl top kit . Thank you
