First: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Smoooooth.

Also, added a photo of the rumble seat below.

Finally: $ 16.5k (USD). New Palestine, Indiana. If you’ve ever wanted a Model A and don’t want to do the restoration yourself, this is an absolute beauty. Phil’s selling it because his wife has heart problems and they can’t take long trips in it any longer, but they used to drive all around southern Indiana with a group of other Model A owners.

And his grandkids absolutely love the rumble seat in parades.

Neat.  My father restored one back in the early 70s

A beauty a bonny and a joy forever. However I prefer my Model A’s to be a lot less nice / complete/stock .

Do Model As have a more standard control layout compared to Ts?

Sadly I didn’t take a photo of the controls . I certainly wouldn’t call it standard but I don’t know how it compares .

From memory... Two pedals: clutch and brake. Throttle on the column. Choke on the far right-hand side. Two levers, shift and (I assumed, but didn’t ask ) parking brake.

Where is this? I spotted a Model A group out of Texas making a trip through Natchitoches, Louisiana in 2016. Here’s that car’s long-lost brother:

That does look very similar. This is central Indiana; he gets around, but I don’t think he would have been that far afield.

Very much so, compared to cars of today, Model As had a similar layout...clutch, brake, gas, etc.
