I offered the Harley for the '31 sport coupe.both are obvious projects,Ill never do the Harley cause I don't ride anymore (love to ride,hate falling off) The sport coupe would fit the chassis I'm building and would allow me to keep my 29 sport coupe complete,basically it gives me two cars,which I need like a hole in the head.Marrying that 31 body to my frame builds value however,and I'm not against that,no sir..Don't think this guy is a model a type,he said the spare engine is a "200.5 cu in engine"..there is a Harley in the last picture so I think he's a biker who fell into this...anyway,he wants 3700 for the car,the Hog is worth about that....what do you think?..intersting sub fact...they only built 19,000 '31 sport coupes...not ultra rare,but not alot of them..

Over the years Craigslist has been very good to me,my current project benefited from a 1500 dollar investment yielding 5 to 7 k worth of value. That being said the flake factor is so high I don't really get excited over a deal like this,if it comes in great,if it doesn't no problem.Its like the show '48 hours' if communication doesn't continue in the first 48 the deal is as good as dead..it passed 48 last night,Ill let my offer sit and watch it,but the odds currently are way down,80-20 against..

by Ronnie HillI had no choice but to replace the top on my unrestored late 31 Coupe.
I don’t drive it when it’s wet but the top had rips in it letting wind get through and i was afraid it would tear up the original head liner. I’m pretty sure that it’s original but something seems to be missing.You do not have permission to view this gallery.

by DaWizardNow, when I was younger, my first A was a '30 Sport Coupe, but all I really remember about it was it had some vinyl seat cover material for a roof.
Today I was working on an Aug '28 Sport Coupe and noticed something I had not remembered about my first one. It seems that the "Special Coupe" wasn't the only model to have a removable beltline. Can any of you out there in Model...-

by Poor BoyWorking on my 31 coupe and noticed that the lower water pipe does not fit and line up correctly with the bottom radiator outlet. The parts catalogues show different numbers for 28/29 and 30/31. I looked in my junk and found 3 rusty ones that I saved for the pet cocks. The angles of the bends are the same, but substantially different than the ill fitting one and will fit correctly. The pet cocks...

by Vic in NJHello all. My plan is to replace the sagging weld repaired frame with a straight unmolested March 1931 frame (frame number is visible). I understand the radiator mounting pad height were changed, cowl body mount bracket was moved rearward and this frame has the rear body brackets in place. This frame I have has the service and emergency brake cross shafts which are in good shape. With this info and...

by Terry, NJI'm painting my coupe body (red wheels). My Town Sedan body was easy. Just take out all the bolts and lift it off. No Biggie! I'm finding my coupe to be a tad harder, like where are the bolts? I've found some of them, but where are the ones from the seat back? I looked in the Rumble trunk (Seat out) and nothing that I can identify as a body bolt.
