Do you have the rear fenders? Does it have a clear title? What parts are missing? Is the cab painted or is it primer? I live in sunland calif. which is not to far from you. I might be intrested depending on the answers. Thanks Tracy V Black

Hey there Tracy, my brother lives in Sunland. This car came with no fenders or title. The engine was a rebuilt that someone sold me, but I only saw it run on a bench. Its paint on the cab(which I have more of). After some minor rust repair it was sprayed. I saved it from being turned into a chopped ratrod. Too many full cabs are being chopped these days.

It was a true barn find. It was pulled into a barn on a apple farm over 40+ years ago and sat there. Someone showed it to a builder and he decided to start the restoration, but soon decided he wanted to chop it, so I bought it off him. I am sure theres a list of stuff one would need. This was my first Model A build so I did not get far before life threw me a curve ball and now I have to sell it. I will accept all reasonable offers on her. Thanks for the reply. Jay

Just my 2 cents here, but I would say that this truck is well worth the $4500 that your asking. If you werent in CA I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I agree with Dan Baron, that seems like a very fair price to me. If it was closer to the East Coast I would be on it like stink on a monkey. Just my $0.02.

While looking for my A, came across a steel top indented f/wall late 31 that somebody had just bought a new NARROW bed for it, go figure. Price he was asking plus getting a widebed just too much, had to pass on it.
Paul in CT Yours is very nice, but xport kills the deal

I have a buyer, but with all things, if he does not come through i will keep the thread posted.

Could anyone tell me the difference between the 31 pickup with a narrow bed vs a wide bed. Besides the obvious, I mean....Thanks.

Re: 31 Wide bed Model A Pickup for Sale
 

Just the bed and the rear fenders. Also because it was a late edition to the lineup, you also get the 32 inspired indented firewall.

Re: 31 Wide bed Model A Pickup for Sale
 

I am the buyer. I am retired and think this will be a good project for a retired guy. This is a very good forum and I will need a lot of help from you guys. It will be good to work on my own project, instead of other peoples, for a change. I have cleaned out a section of my two car garage, gotten the money, arranged for transportation from Wilmington to Hesperia, exchange to take place tomorrow as we decided on the phone with a "verbal handshake". I plan to be there about noon. Just let me know where it is located, so I can put the address into my GPS. Thanks a lot.
