1929 Model A Ford Sport Coupe

Ranked #816 in Cars, #47,026 overall

old around town car

I had this car for 5 years and now (9/4/09) LXY is off to new owners.

Runs good, stops good, no major bodywork, not terribly rusted out (except for the floor under the rumble seat), its been a lot of fun.
the old white canvas top was homemade about 1960 and I have it saved for a pattern to make another, but I like it better off, so never put a top on.
nor did i fix the wiper motor, who needs wipers these days, hasn't rained but 10 inches or so in the last year.

Anyhow, shes gone now.

I've recently run across another model A, sitting under a tarp, under a tree, keep your fingers crossed for me, perhaps I'll have another around town car :)
