WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Found this on Craigslist in Phoenix. Tudor becomes "wall art"; guy is asking $2100 for it. :eek: I guess it's the perfect gift for the restorer who says, "I have half a mind to restore an old car."

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Was there a divorce in this car's past? If so, then the other person got the "A" that is all right!
Seriously, what is the real story behind it? |
Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away This is the half he got in the divorce settlement. He put it here to block what is in the garage, a Duesenberg Model J.

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Dean:
Don't know the history and apparently neither does the current owner - here's what his Craigslist ad says: "1929 Model "A" one half of a 2dr Sedan. It is what it is. Don't know the history or why it was done. One can only speculate. The whole 29 2dr sedan was in very good shape before being divided. Whoever cut the car & set it up, did a very nice job - very well done!" Fred |
Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Lends new meaning to "OH, its about half restored" :)

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Isn't that the one that Laurel & Hardy drove through the buzz saw ?

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away I'd hate to see the back side of the house. :eek:

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Don't look Ethel ,, but it was too late .
|
Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Too bad he is asking 3 times what it is worth. I would have use for the lower qtr., door, cowl post and possibly the tail light provided it is the nickle plated brass one and not the later SS. Definately not good timing for being able to purchase any of the parts I need, so hope the parts get used to restore a decent car and not displayed in its current form. Rod

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Whoever did this was probably a pot smoker who said, "I have half a mind. Think I'll go cut my Model A in half."
|
Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away I've seen stuff like that in bars & restaurants for wall decor. It's a real shame but most likely whoever did it had no idea that they were destroying a historical artifact.

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Only thing missing in his description is the overused phrase "Ran when parked".

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away It takes up less room to park.

Re: WARNING: Model A Owners Look Away Looks like somebody got a new SawZall.....

It can roll around...there is a small roller in front near the door so its not a fixed Art . some ART.

Best idea is (hopefully) that 'other side' was demolished somehow. Anyway, I'd like to think so, as if this beauty was as nice on both sides..the one that did this should be examined for a serious ....split personality complex :eek: |
