Morning all,

Oddballs have always appealed, this ex-Argentina Model A roadster pickup certainly qualifies. The rear body is definitely non-factory, but has a certain charm. Lots of work required, but at least Model A parts are easy enough to find, with several specialists based in the UK.

That has great potential. The load area has been designed and built very cleverly, and worth preserving as is, rather than making it back into a tourer (phaeton). It has 1930/31 wheels rather than the correct 4.50 x 21's for 1929. I wonder about that strange extension on the distributor, very odd, and no way to adjust the spark advance.

I hope that it goes to someone who is sympathetic to its history.
