There were a couple on ebay, you might get one fairly cheap. As more people trash the bodies to make rods the chassis prices are coming down!

yep, and if you have not had a lot of experience with Model As check out Fordbarn and Ahooga - both sites routinely have running chassis for sale. You can get virtually anything for your car out of a catalog, but I would try to find acceptable originals first. Garnish moldings, for example - original fits better. Not a lot to the interior on these, and like the coupe, that keeps the resto cost down a bit, and the demand is pretty high for these. So upon competion you will have a fun, popular little vehicle that is easy to keep running, and a ready market if you ever want to or need to sell.
Re the Marmon, you only chased it a couple years, right?? Some times it takes longer - you just never know!
Good luck, Brad.

Thanks for posting fellas!! If you know someone who has a running chassis to sell please let me know. Also have a bunch of extra stuff i.e. box, tailgate, doors, fenders, etc that are not going to be used SSSsssoooo,,,,Again Thanks, about the Marmon,,,,,,Wot a dream car but to get, then cough enough money to restore as it should, I'd rather restore the A into a driver, find a steam traction engine and play around with that.....Again Thanks

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art.
