Sharp. It'll be interesting to see what the winning bid is.

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...:p

The gas tank for an indented firewall does not have a gas line that runs through the passenger compartment to the firewall. The indented firewall gas tank outlet matches the hole on the firewall and the gas shut off valve screws into the gas tank on the engine side of the firewall.

I used photo shop and lightened the photo of the under tank connection. There may not be a valve on the gas line but it is a non indented fire wall gas tank.

They will NEVER get that price on Ebay.
(that would be an easy $10000 profit!)

No one has mentioned the non-side bowl carburetor.
Indented firewall car should have side bowl carburetor.

The steering column support bracket I believe should be mounted to the dash not the fuel tank

on post 19 pics, that fan looks close to the radiator... My '31 indented firewall only has one fuel shutoff on the engine side of the firewall... Like everything else, buyer beware..

I haven't had any experience with an indented firewall A but I learned something new today...Thanks...:)

Maybe they didn’t want to exit the vehicle and raise the hood to shut off the gas but wanted the engine compartment original looking.

Probably. I wish it was restored to originality as it was supposedly owned by a bakery (see last photo).

Read post # 19 The gas tank for an indented firewall does not have a gas line that runs through the passenger compartment to the firewall. The indented firewall gas tank outlet matches the hole on the firewall and the gas shut off valve screws into the gas tank on the engine side of the firewall.

read post # 22 I used photo shop and lightened the photo of the under tank connection. There may not be a valve on the gas line but it is a non indented fire wall gas tank.

wonder how well it runs since a spark plug wire is disconnected.
