A Local Estate Sale Offering...

Post by Jerry VanOoteghem » Fri Jul 07, 2023 12:24 pm

Not showing this on the Cars for Sale section, since I think nobody here would want it. Just presenting this beauty for your general pleasure and conversation. :roll:

(However, if you simply must have it... https://www.estatesales.net/MI/Northville/48167/3717210 Sale starts today)

There may not be another one like it. Thanks for bringing it here.
My thought is that it is a suicide door Coupe cowl with a late twenties' roadster rear half grafted onto it. With no seams in the back section and the reshaped doorway some time was spent on that. Much of the fun has already been had, but lots more could happen.
We purists are shaking in our galoshes. :lol: :lol: :lol:
What Fun.

$9,800 seems a little pricey for a unique fixer-upper opportunity.

Where did you see a price? (I wouldn't pay $980.00)

since I think nobody here would want it.
m,ed me me! that is a cool 'fun' car.

Sadly it is a bit far away from me, and the asking price is about 4 times my 'value' for it ....

What in the HELL is with that SEAT? TWO backrests and a bottom that you need a step stool to hop up onto! My feet wouldn't touch the floor and with my bad back I'd be numb in 15 minutes! Aiy yai yai.

I would drive the wheels off it. Pickups are handy, you get more gas rations in the war years.

Sometimes it is how we roll. The seat cushion looks to be the correct one for a coupe.

You are to be commended Mark. Some Model Ts are not allowed to develop a charm of their own like that one.
It looks wonderful.
Thanks
Rich
When did I do that?

If that vehicle is a 1923, then I don't have the correct title to my car.

It's a gen-u-wine TouraCoupSter Deliverywagon from nineteen twentyishmacallit, just like they rolled off the line into the furnace. I was trying to figure out the use of the front top bow as a back top bow... They could take a bow for that. And the semisolid front windshiled.

It's better than nothing, however theres about 102% of possible changes I would do before I kicked it out of the garage for eating crackers.
