Indiana is loaded with Model A parts...I went there a few years back. I heard about the "Buildings in Town full of Model A Parts" Belonging to BJ's Well at Hershey I stoped by there spot and asked Vanassa about the Buildings of parts??? (this is after her dad had passed) She said Yes it was true and that he had only showed her a little bit of the stuff!
Good Job Corndog!

Moved it all back to Indiana last Saturday. Have already gone thru most of it to sort out the broken and unusable. Sold 8 engine cores to one guy, kept the best two (I hope). Also brought the 29 tudor sedan home. It took three truck & trailer loads to get it all. Glad that is done!

Good for you! Happy to hear that you went and got it all!

When you say "unusable", it may still be usefull for someone. Even a junk fender might have good patch parts in it. And some of the mechanical parts can be rebuilt.

Maybe you could sell the "broken and unusable" at scrap prices to A owners. As Tom says parts of these parts may be able to reused.

Man, I'm just starting out in the A area, and I see a couple hoods in there. Need one for a 28. My Brother in-law took his off his tudor and put it on the Coupe we are bringing home. I would love to replace the hood either way.

Great find!

Needed- Right Rear and Left rear fenders for a 1930 Town Sedan.
A good Camshaft,(no rust and center bearing journal at least 1.557")
Rear apron for Town Sedan .
That's all I can think of now.
