Any Impressions on the 4 Door for Sale in this Ad?
Anything about this ad seem odd to you? Read it through to the end.

Re: Any Impressions on the 4 Door for Sale in this Ad?
Sketchy!! Must sell, war in my country and must sell. Really? Smells kinda fishy to me. What's up with the pictures of the car together and then the pictures with the car half taken apart?

Re: Any Impressions on the 4 Door for Sale in this Ad?
Greg,
As i am sure you know, lots of wood in that car. If it is not in good shape, which is likley , that translates into lots of $$$ and lots of work. I have sold several complete wood kits for the wooden 4 door sedans lately, and they have been succesufully installed, but it takes lots of time and they are pricey. Just my 2 cents worth Steve Becker Berts Model A Center |

Re: Any Impressions on the 4 Door for Sale in this Ad?
Steve-I agree and if I was in the market for a 4 door at this point in my life I would buy the nicest restored one I could find. I am not interested in buying this car-I thought it smacked of the "Nigerian Colonel" sort of ad. You know, you win the car in auction, send the $500 deposit, then never see a 4 door. But then, maybe I am jumping to conclusions and it is some poor guy who has always wanted to get his Model A back home to Syria but things are in an uproar there.....

Brent, much shipping goes on through north Jersey in the Newark area
not so much with ports in Chicago-large cost differential if he was shipping the cars home, that is where they could have landed. besides-buying on ebay allows you to pay with paypal, which completely covers your purchase.......... you just pay the 3% premium. ps the guy has a 90 rating of 100%-pretty good.

Re: Any Impressions on the 4 Door for Sale in this Ad?
I'm still confused about why the car is whole in the beginning and in pieces later in the pictures.
