What is your plan for it Wick?

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

That is one Model A that just has to be preserved as is, which will be a lot of work too. I understand the front fenders are shot? Is the interior material still OK? I saw a similar 53K mile Town Sedan here which the mohair looked good but was rotting.
Magnificent car & more photos please as you progress with the preservation.

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

Car is to stay as is. Also theres a 31 4door here with 16,000 miles on it.

Another picture when it was found.

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

Will you make the car driveable and bring it to a national meet?
I'd sure like to see it sometime.

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

The car will be made driveable. The car is just 70 miles outside Richmond VA. and 40 miles North of Williamsburg.

What's the story on the 16,000 mile '31? Is it a Slant Windsheild model?

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

Yes its a slant window. The car sat in a Resturant named "Lowery's" in Tappahannock VA. Very nice car. It's the car on the left in this picture.

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

I'd love to see some pictures of it if you have any.

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

What is "Gibbs Oil" ?

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

Ill have to find my pictures tonight. Gibb's oil is great stuff! If you look it up there site can describe it better then I can. About $12 a can.

Re: 1370 mille A update.
 

Gibbs is a penetrating oil like Kroil, but Kroil smells better. I don't think there is much odor to Gibbs. I use both and have had good luck with both Gibbs and Kroil.

2023 Update The car is still in the same condition and has been stored inside for a number of years.
Plenty of visitors have enjoyed inspecting the car.
