Description:
1929 Model A, 2-door, mostly original. The car was restored in the 1980s and has been with the same owner since. The car has never been stored outside and has always been in a garage since the 1980's.

This is a 4 cylinder with the original motor and transmission. It starts easily and runs well. This is a perfect car to drive around the neighborhood, in parades, or take out for a Sunday drive.

Overall, the car is in good condition and would require additional work to be in excellent to mint condition. This car is currently located in central Florida and is available to view and drive by appointment for serious buyers.
