George Smolinski Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Is this a factory vehicle? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/556223869133935/? Ford model A. Runs and drives. Everything shown in pictures included. Couple additional accessories included not shown in pictures. Don’t know exact year or Maintenace history. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearheadengineer Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) Well, it’s certainly NOT a 1936! Either estate sale and the kids don’t have Dad’s interest in old cars, or someone picked it up looking for a quick flip. Apparently too much work to do ten minutes of research on the internet?

suchan Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Clueless heirs aside, it looks like a pretty decent and complete '31, and may well be worth the asking price. Worth a look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Perkins / Mn Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 George, Yes, appears to be a factory built 150-B. I had a ‘29 150-A about 12 years ago. The market is soft on these, the guy who bought mine is trying to sell it and is asking 6K less than he paid me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercub Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) The wood looks new, the siding is AC plywood, will check in a matter of time and won't hold a finish well. Okoume or Sapelle mahogany boatbuilding ply would be rot resist and hold a finish. Original was probably planking, reused shipping crate stock?

Flivverking Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Some one get's an "A" for effort for the body building ,and the very close basic overall dimensions..but the wood I see is all the incorrect in type and quality. But...it is a Model A wood station wagon and appears in fair condition for an average amatuer older restoration.. 30.000 grand worth? it isn't even close to half that to any veteran Model A enthusiast,who knows what is what and the good and bad of real restoration. A newbee might shell out 15k. and be proud of it and enjoy the rig for years.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Actually looks more like B/C plywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Perkins / Mn Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I meant that the car started life as a wagon, wood is not factory of course. 9 hours ago, Jeff Perkins / Mn said: Yes, appears to be a factory built 150-B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
