Default Re: 1931 Model A Victoria Value

My thoughts are--- drive the car 50-55MPH for several miles, then try and stop. Let the car set a half hour and look for a puddle of oil under the rear main. If the car won't run 55MPH and your brake pedal goes to the floor and the rear main leaks a six inch puddle of oil, be prepared to spend another 10-15 thousand dollars. Also how old are the tires, quality tires can cost most of a thousand dollar bill. How about shocks, another $1200 if you stay original. Just some thoughts from hot-hot San Diego, 103 in the garage yesterday!!
