So how does one get into the rumble seat without ruining the fender's paint?

May not be everyone's "cup of tea" but some nice woodwork nonetheless.

A lot of time spent on this car.

Conversation piece.

I would love to talk with the guy who did the work. How do you put a price on something like this? Enjoy.

It would take a master craftsman to build that body for sure . The thing is , it would be expensive and is still not a real model A roadster.

I like the fact that they are different and as a wood worker myself I appreciate the work involved.

It was sold on eBay a lot cheaper last year. Probably for what it’s reallynworth.
