f.f.jones Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 1929 Ford Model A Sedan - $18,500 (Gladstone Oregon) https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/ctd/d/gladstone-1929-ford-model-sedan/7460294498.html This beauty was fully restored several years ago and looks amazing. Model, A all-steel body has a 4 cylinder motor that runs a drive smooth with manual transmission. The tu-tone paint looks like it was just done. The blacktop and visor on the car are like new and give it a great unique look. It comes with mechanical brakes, wire wheels, running boards, and rear-mounted spare tire. The front and rear chrome bumpers are like new. The front grill is like new including the radiator unique cap. The cloth tan interior looks presentable. This beauty can be driving and enjoyed for many years to come. contact name: Affordable Classics Inc call or text: (503) 653-4030 ( I think white walls would set it off nicely!!😁😁) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Huston Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) I would love to hear what Henry Ford would say if he could see this Model A. Edited March 20, 2022 by Mark Huston (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearheadengineer Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 “re·store /rəˈstôr/ repair or renovate (a building, work of art, vehicle, etc.) so as to return it to its original condition.” Just sayin’ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Such an abysmally poor choice of color it reveals the lack of maturity and intelligence of the person who perpetrated this visual affront. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Someone was allowed to embark on a restoration by telling his wife she could pick the colors. 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_Mack_CT Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) Strangely it has blackwalls, black wheels and isn't swimming in accesories. Interior looks stock. Hallmarks of taste especially on a tudor sedan. Price leading closed car. Weird.

supercub Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Good way to get the wife into the hobby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 It seems priced on the very high end for a tudor. Now deduct the 8k for a repaint and your in business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not fine point but definately very nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Maybe, just possibly, (I hope so) the previous owner was color blind and his wife picked the color. Don't laugh as this very thing actually happened. When I was growing up one of the neighbors was color blind and his wife had the house painted pink. Didn't bother him at all as he couldn't see it. I was too young to ask him what it looked like to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 We built a high end custom home. Had clear redwood siding on the exterior. It was painted a bright pink with purple trim. Owner was a bachelor and had an architect design and make all of the choices. He had no idea what the colour was until the painters started. It kind of became a local landmark as people would say 'its down past the pink house' or go by the pink house and turn right' and so on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day clear redwood was common for 6" clapboard siding, even on the east coast. It has a close straight grain, takes and holds paint well. Now of course there are much better options i.e. hardi products. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsy Wudsy Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Sadly, I'm somehow reminded of local hero Prince. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
