All you need are a taxi meter and a roof light and your're in business.

Ol' Yeller...

It's in decent shape, and black wheels would help hugely, but the asking price is more in line with a car in a factory color.

My thoughts exactly.

I am fairly sure that the only body style available in factory yellow was the cabriolet (folding top coupe) (1929 was also the first year for the cabriolet!). I am also fairly sure that it was the only color the cabriolet was available in. 

The silly thing is, that before much of the model A crowd went to extreme purism (talking about thirty to fifty years ago?), Most model A people would accept any model A in any factory color in spite of the fact that most body styles were offered in about four color combinations only. 

The restoration looks old enough that it was probably painted cabriolet yellow because at the time it was considered acceptable. By the way, I was in the "paint it the right color" camp even then.

I think maybe they were going for this look???
