I ran across these Model A's under a "lean to" and in the woods and was able to make a package deal of them. There is a 28 or 29 Model AA truck, a model A truck and a Model A. The car was a police car early on.

Hopefully nearly free is the price paid. I'd love a Model A, but for as cheap as they are typically, I'd just pay a bit for a runner.

The awesomeness should be strong with these!! Based on the progression of previous builds, at least one of them should end up with either a turbine or a quad turbo V12. While still keeping the original dash and sheriff campaign sticker.

I spent most of the day removing the "lean to" roof from the top of the AA. Managed to get it down without anything falling on me or slicing me up! Also removed the entire flat bed without any tools as the boards were riddled with termites and rot. I brought along an air tank but used it up filling the tires on the A coupe. Thrilled that they all hold air. The location is only a few miles from my workshop so I had the coupe flatbedded today and will hopefully get the other two soon.

Do you not pay attention? Hes probably already got some hot small block for it.

Also, model a cop car? Is that like....the original p71?

I got all the old roof off the top of the AA.

Also aired up the tires. All 4 held air until this happened. Looks like 50 year old tubes are more durable than 50 year old tires

Jacked up all 4 wheels and filled in the holes.

I drug the A truck to the edge of the woods This truck is just for parts. The frame is rusted in half and it is missing a lot of parts. Both vehicles are ready for the tow truck
