If I had the space and money that would be a fun toy! It would be really interesting to see how well it drives and how fast it goes when its fixed up. Could be fun to put a plow on the front to move snow or something, or some kind of a small blade on the back to plow up a small garden?

There may or may not be much utility in something like this but it would be fun to tinker around with.

You used to see a lot of these, in different configurations, in West Virginia and Ohio. They were called, "HOOPIES".

Cool but I'd take a Ford 8N..

All right you Michiganders, someone needs to go buy this thing and save it for posterity. And its not a "Reserve" auction also. May get it cheap.

They guy also has a 31 Model A that he bought and will keep. I invited him over here to the Barn as he is new to all this. He has a couple of small kids and the wife wants him to spend more time with them and less in the barn.

I am with you. My N is a whole lot easer to drive. But then my Cat D2 would run circles around this thing.

At least the new owner won't rat rod it! Well maybe not.....
