Looks like a T.
For 14,900 I'll take it.

hmm i have mixed feelings. Its got great aspects and reminds me of a cataram7 but then other parts are like a train wreck...Seat looks comfortable to sit in but not sure about driving or getting out of it. I am impressed fitting the engine with a mechanical fan in there.

Its probably titled as a 28 model A even though theres very little left of it.

J Franklin · 02-28-2018, 04:22 PM

Model A what??

Ruth · 02-28-2018, 04:38 PM

Not my tastes but I have seen worse. At least it FORD powered.

Looks like a rat rod except it's been painted!

The only Model A part or piece I see are the step plates on the running boards.......

J Franklin · 02-28-2018, 05:19 PM

And those are aftermarket!

Its NOT a Model A, so why even post it ??..

This might be a scam. What is model A about it - a taxi cab paint job?

Must be a very early Model A

There isn't single part on it that's related to a Model A, or even looks like a Model A, nor any other antique car parts. It looks like a fiberglass kit car with a Ford V8, and I hope they aren't using a good 1928 Model A title card on it.

slammin · 03-01-2018, 12:02 PM

Calling that a Model A takes a lot of poetic license! Beyond that, the listing is almost useless. No information about the build, equipment. I wouldn't pay $14.90 let alone $14,900 based on what has been posted.

marty in Ohio · 03-01-2018, 06:42 PM

Maybe they're calling it a Model A so they can run antique plates on it. It galls me to see a "bucket T" with antique plates on it. Nothing about the car is a Model T.

Widened fenders, running boards and aprons no doubt appear to have started out as 28-29 style. Not my cup of tea, but does appear to have been very well thought out and engineered.

Can someone tell me why when pictures are posted of cars the license plate is blocked out? I have never heard a reason for this?
