The Ford Barn

I agree. From the little we can see in the picture, the car looks sharp and well maintained. It may just be a fluke, and even if it is more than that, the wiring in the Model A is very easy to troubleshoot.

Good luck,

Ken

The owner and I just agreed on a price and I'm hoping to get the car around the 18th! His inspections turned up a loose wire in one of the break lights which he ,of course, fixed. The car has been starting and running with no issues since then.

Welcome to the addiction...

Hi Ruth -Actually me addiction began in the early 1980's when I bought a 1930 Ford Model A Tudor. It was a great car but - after a few years I discovered a 1931 Model A Phaeton. Each car one a prize at the Long Island (NY) Model A club. Strangely, both cars were nearly perfect and I never had a problem with either. Moving to Manhattan forced me to sell the car about 24 years ago. But, I never lost my addiction. Now in NJ, I have been able to at last satisfy it once again
