1929 Ford Murray Town Sedan on 2040-cars

1929 Ford Model A 4 Door “Murray” Town Sedan.  This car is beautiful.  See for yourself.  It is not perfect, however it garners attention everywhere it goes.  This car was completely frame off restored approximately 6 years ago.  Mileage is listed as 1000, however this is simply because eBay would not let me leave it blank or NA.  I have no idea how many miles are on the car, but I would estimate less than 1000.  It was driven for a couple of years then stored.  Since that time, it has been has been brought back to life.  Fuel system completely cleaned and rebuilt.  Engine removed and re-sealed.  Cooling system completely flushed and cleaned.  This car has fantastic detail.  The interior looks like new, complete with rear shades.  Seats show no sign of wear.  Carpet is like new.  All windows and doors work properly.  Bumpers are like new.  The undercarriage is as clean and detailed as the top of the car.  The engine is a touring engine, balanced and powerful (for a stock 1929 Model A engine).  The car drives very nice.  Transmission is tight and brakes are like new.  Exhaust is stock with the Model A muffler, and it sounds like a Model A should.  At idle you can retard the timing and hear each cylinder fire.  I have driven the car less than 200 miles.

The only issue with this car is the paint is showing some age (hurricane or whiskey bumps, depending on where you live).  See the pictures.  It still shines very nice, but there are some issues under the paint.  The black is fine and looks like it is new.  The green is where the issues are.  See the pictures.  This is not noticeable until you are very close to the car.  From just a few feet away it is hardly noticeable.  With proper paint, this would be a $30K+ ’29 Model A.  But then you would be afraid to drive it, thinking that someone would put a ding in it, or a rock chip or bug.  This car demands attention when going down the road and with the touring engine, you can enjoy driving it, and going on tours, it has plenty of power.   There is a $25K “Buy It Now” price on this car.  Reserve is slightly lower.  Inspections are welcomed.  If you are in the Houston area and would like to see the car in person, contact me (through eBay).
