You don't see too many of these. Looks to be a nice car.

Sharp looking vehicle, I still kick myself whenever I see one of these. I saw one go at auction five or six years ago for $8500! No reserve, car was completely restored, inside finished, drivetrain restored and running perfect, body work completed but in primer. There was a similar Chevy same condition that sold for around the same amount. Several model a's all in great condition. All of the sedans sold in the $5k-$6k range. I had no idea what was there and didn't even register.

asking $35K with no engine, interior or undercarriage photos?
looks like another dealer web page with very shiny cars at top end prices.
this might be a good car, but a thorough personal inspection is needed before price negotiations begin.......

Seems like St. Louis Car Museum always asks for prices at the high end of the curve. Believe that their target price might be the opening bid and everything else is gravy.

As I looked at the other cars St. Louis Car Museum has up for sale, I noticed a 1936 Cord 852 By Speedster Motorcar. Yes, it is a replica but they say that it is a 1936. Shouldn't they say that it is a 2006?

Wonder what it will take to satisfy the reserve.

If you scroll down in the Ebay ad, larger pictures are available and they also contain motor and interior views.

For me : NO bids at all.
Starting an auction at that high price, WITH reserve... that is asking for a No Sale.

If someone really wants to know; that's easy.
Bid $360000 and retract your bid with the reason that you made a mistake and wanted to bid 36000... you will see what the reserve is...
I didn't say anything....

Also, that's not the original engine, it's a re-stamp, and not a good re-stamp either.

They aren't common but they aren't THAT scarce either. I have one that I'm building a restomod from.

I looked at the detail photos and noticed that the interior photo shows a gas shutoff valve under the tank and the engine compartment photo shows a indented firewall with a gas shut off valve. I have never heard or seen this combination. Looks like during a restoration some one assembled with the wrong gas tank or firewall.

Any comments from the experts??

see the attached photos

Good catch if it is indeed an under tank cutoff. I can't tell if it is or isn't...
