The Ford Barn

Hi All,

Just sold my 1930 Fordor to a fellow that is containerizing and shipping all sorts of classic cars (Cadillac, Essex, etc) to Saudi Arabia. I figure if they were willing to pay the sort of cash that they did, the car would be heading to a good home and would hopefully be restored to what she should be.

Not that I want this to be a political post about the Middle East(heaven knows we don;t need one of those), has anyone ever sent an A overseas ? Were these neat old cars ever originally sold in the Middle East? I have seen a lot in South America, North America, Europe, Asutralia/New Zealand, but not much about Africa or Middle East Model A's being in existance.

Thoughts?

Free History Lesson?

Purely curious
