This is in somerset PA and looks like a pretty solid car for the $
Maybe someone starting out is looking for such a deal?

old31 · 01-26-2025, 08:10 AM

Yes, that is a fair price. I'm not sure what the inside looks like.

You cant go wrong, it looks like a chrome horn.

ronn · 01-26-2025, 11:41 AM

maybe a 70s restoration? top looks decent.......

Looks like a original car?

Synchro909 · 01-26-2025, 03:41 PM

I've been keeping my eye open for a Coupe in need of some TLC for a while but Coupes are not common over here. That one looks better than I'd hoped for.
Anybody got a link to it?

Don't waste your time. It's long gone. Don't bother with FakeBook either.

I've brought 2 Model As from the US so far. If I am comfortable enough dealing with a foreign seller, I'm sure shipping to my international shipper in Indianapolis would be easy enough.

Somehow facebook won't let me view stuff without creating an account. So that means that site is off limits for me.

ronn · 01-26-2025, 06:14 PM

not so sure 29
I bought a vicki and cabrio off FB in the fall. they languished on there and nobody wtd them. yes I stole them!

Indianapolis is far far away. I guess you dont mind huge shipping chges Sync? Nothing better then east coast which is close by. Indianapolis is in the middle of the country.

The alternatives are some other company or LA. Your east coast is the wrong one for us, I am not aware of a shipping company that would ship a car from there to Australia but I'd be surprise if there is not one operating out of New York..
Even with that link above your post, I need a login to see anything.
It's all becoming too hard. Unless.....I stole it to make up for a part of the shipping (which would be about $A12-15K)

Synchro909 · 01-26-2025, 09:48 PM

Well, I finally made contact using my wife's account. When I asked about a title, he said no and went dark. OH well!
We don't have titles for cars but I believe there must be a good title to get the car out of the USA. I have been told that a car with no title is not much more than a pile of spare parts. Seems to me that $US7.5K is a lot for that.

ronn · 01-27-2025, 07:04 AM

you are correct- a title is needed to ship out. (one reason I sell so many titles)

believe me, the price is a bargain to us stateside, regard less. I know what you guys pay for an A............Ive sold both a 31 chevy coupe and a 66 mustang conv to the desert country. Both guys paid dearly for shipping. Newark is next to NY by the way.
Huge shipping hub.

AzBob · 01-27-2025, 11:12 AM

Take a look at the interior picture. The shift lever and tower does not look Model A. More like a ’39 or earlier V8.

fordf1trucknut · 01-27-2025, 12:45 PM

Here are some more pics of it if anyone has any interest.

As far as the when he bought it he was given a title but never paid attention to. Well unfortunately it has a buyers name written in of some long previous buyer who never transfered it... so basically a dead title.

I like it! has 'the look!' imo... and no doubt that unmistakable vintage aroma, too! I paid $200.00 for my first '30 A coupe....
