How to overcome sellers remorse……..
« on: October 25, 2006 4:10 pm »
Well as some of you know I sold the A sedan a little over a week ago. It is however still in my garage waiting for transport.

I picked this up last weekend. Plans are to have it on the road for spring. It is a 30 cowl and what I believe is a 28-29 back and doors possibly cabriolet.

Thanks to Serious for the pics.

Here are a few pics of when I picked it up. Nice guy about 75 years old. Has been a restorer for ever but wanted a hot rod but never did finish it.

Nice find.  I had noticed your A for sale a week or so ago. The guy you bought the new A from sure has some prime stuff!

Do I notice some shine to the new "A"?

I know you'll do a great job finishing it.

The body is PAINTED and will stay that way unless I damage it too much finishing it. I mainly have to rework the frame but I also need to get some type of windscreen on it. I will more than likely end up with some type of Duvall but fitting and mounting it to a painted car may be interesting.

It is set up for SBC so I am planning on the 327 that is currently in the bi-five. I think I will hang on to the 4 speed and put an auto into it.

Yea I just have to see how much the floor is tied into the firewall. If it is too much apart of the car it will just stay.
