See,chopped Model A in the back of my pick up box. Drove to Albuquequeque New Mexico and bought the coupe from Trent. Nice guy,building some killer bikes in his shop.. My wife drove the whole way,there and back.(with our kids too) Having a issue with the DMV.....don't ask. And to top it off it was our anniversery! How's that for a caring wife!
I need that in my driveway. (not the fat guy). How much to deliver north of the 49th.Looks good keep updating the progress pics.
Trent is a top bloke, period. A couple of years ago he pulled a pair of 29 tudor doors off ePay, after I offered to buy them from him, via the HAMB. He stored them for a couple of months, then packed them so well, they survived the trip down under unscathed, and they are a real good pair of doors. If anyone else wants to deal with a genuine seller - Trent (aka RockMtnPits) is the man! Eric, you got yourself one bitchin coupe. Just looking at what is in the driveway - well you can kind of see why he sold the coupe.
Lucky bastard!!! I tried pretty hard to get him to part with the body only, but he held out and it fell into the hands of another. Oh well, at least it went to someone who will do it justice. Congrats all the way around.
Yeah, what a concept... Model A body, duece rails, nailhead, four speed, yeah, I can see it now !!! Great score man, what's that plan?
NICE! Anyone know if anyone has ever put a complete model A in the bed of a pickup truck? I'd like to see that How much is that chop...5"? Looks great!
congrats on the score, its a nice setup! I believe that chop is 4.5". BTW: I have put a complete Model A in the back of a Dodge Dakota Pick-up. It was in pieces, but relatively complete.
My own reality show "amERICan snot rodder" watch me spaz out as I slowly go broke buying old Fords The dead lines (mortage payments) are tight,the customer (?) needs the coupe now! Pick up those Miller High Life cans damnit! Turn down the SUPER SUCKERS on the stereo! Everyones quit or fired,gotta get it done,the dead line is closing in! Someone please go to Sears and replace all the broken screwdrivers.and pick up a 12 pack...
id love too know where u can find a coupe like that i looked for a year finally gave up and picked up the 54 chevy i have now
I've reviewed the covenants in your neighborhood and it seems to me there is a maximum 2 vintage car limit. Somethings gotta go there pal! Looks good to me.
Great meeting you and your family! Do that coupe justice, I sure had a hard time letting it go. If you would have called about an hour later, I might not have answered! haha
