Default New to the World of Model A's

Hello everyone. About 2 weeks ago, I bought my first Model A! I've owned and restored mostly Mopars from the 60's/70's, but I love most all cars and trucks. I've always had a soft spot for the pre-WWII cars, especially Model A's. I joined a group on facebook, and have posted there, but thought I might post here as well.

I purchased this little '28 Special Coupe from a lady who lives in an awesome Southern home that was built in 1895. She had an estate sale and lucky for me, the sale must have not been well advertised and the car did not sell. I was able to work a deal with her afterwards. It belonged to her late husband who passed away two years ago. Supposedly, he bought the car around 20+ years ago, did some work to the car, and got it running and driving. They would drive it to town (2 miles away) and back, up to around 10 years ago. The car was parked and sat untouched until I purchased it. I do not know the reason for parking it though. The car is surprisingly very solid. For now, my plans are to replace the top, tires, and glass... along with a few other things, and to get the car running/driving. For now, I'll just leave the body pretty much as it is. I'm sure I'll have many questions here.

Justin
