This past weekend I was at a swap meet, and although I did not find any Model A parts I did get to look over and take some photos of a fairly original 1928 Sport Coupe. For the record it is engine number CA88105 body number F807. I could not find any gas tank code.

Very nice to see, Bick. My early 29 Tudor was CA96929.

Bick,
That is a very nice original car. I don't know what $3800 AU is compared to US dollars, but it appears the AU dollar is a little less than US dollars. That would be a little less than $3500 US. Seems like a steal to me. I would gladly pay that price for a left hand drive car. Someone is going to get a real deal if the $3800 is the current price, which seems very low.

Bick you should have looked more closely I brought a box of 8 NOS Champion 3X Plugs for 100 bucks. Also picked up some Kevlar bands for the Model T cheap -Karl

I have a friend with a 28 phaeton with right hand drive and right hand brake. The engine number is higher than this one which has the center squeeze brake.

Karl,
The sign in the window shows $3800. I just checked the NZ dollar to the US dollar. It is .78 NZ dollar to 1 US dollar, so there is not a lot of difference in the two dollars. Did the owner leave off a trailing 0 on his sigh?

Rusty, It is just the reflection / light playing tricks. If you look at the 2nd picture I posted you can clearly see the 30. It is definately 30,000 NZD but has been on the market some time now and the owner is very negotiable.

Thanks for Posting the Pictures. The interior shot showing the roof brackets is a big help for my 28 Canadian Sports Coupe.
