For Sale 1929 Model A Murray bodied Fordor Sedan. With Clear South Dakota Tiltle.

This car has been in a shed for 40+ years. This car had the fancy curtains and pull down sun shade in it. Looks like it was a well optioned car for 1929. Engine is free and the oil looks like new. The only thing that I saw upon observation missing was the hood and Dist. The car was in gear when we pulled it out and the engine turned over so I assume that the rest of the drivetrain is good also. There is nothing left that could be eaten by critters, but other than this the body is in really nice shape. Just surface rust on this Ol Girl. I do have extra wheels that came with the car that will go with the deal.

Please email for more information and I will get back to you soon.
shoot me your phone number and I will call you back if you want to discuss. The worst that can happen is that we cannot agree on a price.

the 3 piece firewall is consistent with 28/29 4 door, also the gas cap is screw on type.

To quote PurdySwoft:
"The Briggs and Murray cowls both would look similiar to the 30-31 to the uneducated eye. No offence by the use of the word uneducated. These cowls were used on the fordor, town sedan, town car and the convertable cabriolet there were some variations. there was a fordor cowl of this style built in 1928 that had a vent in the drivers side of the cowl. the fordor cowls of this style didn't have a cowl band or cowl lights. all of the other mentioned cowls did have cowl lights and cowl band. The Briggs built cowls had more wood and the windshield posts were made seperately and attached to the wood frame with nails. The later 29 Murray cowls had an upper dash panel that was more similar to the 30-31. All of these cowls used the same 28-29 gas tanks that was used with the tudor,coupe, roadster and pickup but was mounted under the skin of the cowl instead of being exposed as the other models. The firewall was not at all like the 30-31 but more like the 28-29 tudor, coupe and truck except there was a removeable panel between the tank and lower firewall that would have to be removed to remove the gas tank. No part of these cowls will interchange with the 30-31 cowls.
