This 1930 Model A Boattail Speedster car runs and drives. It has been sitting for a couple years but works well. It has a minor oil leak while driving. We believe it is the rear main rope seal. No other problems are known. History of this vehicle’s creation isn’t certain. We were told that it was possibly done in the 1950’s. It has the original 1930 engine in it and we were told the front and rear axles were from a 1934 Ford. (Not confirmed) This car is a showstopper and great conversation piece
