Default Re: Purchase Advise: 1930 Model A Tudor

Welcome. 4K seems in the ball park you may be able to dicker with them a bit. Here is my 2 cents worth:

-The electrical can be fixed in a few hours with about $100 in wiring.
-The brake system will cost around 1500-2000 to completely rebuild.
-The vacuum wipers are not required as RainX will be your friend.
-A rebuilt engine will run you about 4-5K done right.
-A gunked up fuel tank can be cleaned out (assuming no cancer) but it will just take you awhile.

Do these people know how to work on a Model A? They are simple but have their quirks for an 80 yr old car. Where do you live as local club member may go with you to look the car over.
