That car does not need any certification here. The only mods I see are a bit of engine hotting up. We are allowed a 20% increase in horsepower as owner certified mods, so who is ever going to prove that engine is above 48 horsepower? I state these facts as i have 3 engineer certified hotrods currently on NSW rego, so I know the process. Sometimes it amazes me here, there are many more "hotrods" lurking here than this one which is basically only a stripped A with a warmed engine. I don't see it with a mitchell overdrive, 16 inch wheels, floaters, etc like all the other hotrods here.. http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/documents/...ifications.pdf |

Re: 1931 Ford Parts Value? Nice original stuff
It is the Hot Rodders who are keeping us supplied with original parts. If this fella was closer to Missouri I would offer to purchase the whole package. I would say that prices all depend on how quickly you want to move them and also how nice they are. Bead breaks kinda ruin the value a lot. If you want to post pictures of what you have then I could give you a really good idea of what the value is as I have bought and sold original parts for year.
On the Hot Rod end. Why do we not involve our youth in our original cars? We were at one time that youth and is why we have interest today in the original Model A. I see both sides of the argument but my heart is in Henry's Lady but understand that we are all free to do with as we please and when you do check with me about disposing of the original parts. Best of luck with your project! Dan in Missouri |

Re: 1931 Ford Parts Value? Nice original stuff
GSCOV: At the end o WW2, I was 8 years old and in love with CARS. Hotrods, lst car 1939 Coupe with built flattie with 3 0riginal 97's, 3/4 cam.the works, drove this car thru HS. Been participating at Bonneville since the 60s. NOTHING wrong with HotRods. I also have a deuce roadster that gathers the gold anywhere. BUT with flattie with two up top, GLASS body, special frame, brakes, the works. Did not destroy a Ford Roadster to build this show winner. get it out the garage and let's go... NUFF SAID---

I'd like to know the weight of all the parts removed, and how it performs now. Last edited by ChicagoBob; 06-15-2017 at 10:09 AM. |

Re: 1931 Ford Parts Value? Nice original stuff
Thanks for the comments. Seems like this is a pleaser and brings smiles to Most guys who get grease under their fingers. The gold chain and button down shirt and khaki guys cannot relate. I get it man!

Re: 1931 Ford Parts Value? Nice original stuff
At least, Henry built LOTS & LOTS of cars for us to use as we desire!
If anyone wants a restored '29 5 Window Coupe, almost ready to drive & HUGE tool & equipment & spares, just bring a Flatbed, $22,000.00 CASH, in a plain BROWN paper bag & it's YOURS!--- The TOOLS/CABINETS/EQUIPMENT/ETC, are worth that!!! Bill Cashingout (OLD & TIRED!)

Any who have such cars on the road without engineering certification are running a HUGE risk. If they are in a collision, the driver is likely to be sued. He wouldn't have a leg to stand on and the penalties could be huge if someone is injured in either car. I can think of only one similar car I see around here and he went through the certification process. BTW, it has mudguards. in America- everyone gets sued, regardless. a non issue.................. so much fear? |

Re: 1931 Ford Parts Value? Nice original stuff
Nice car! I like what you have done to it and appreciate the offer you made for someone here to purchase the take off parts. Period hot rods are my favorite.
