For sale: 1931 Ford Model A coupe.

Runs, drives, and stops well. Has recently serviced 4 cylinder, 201 cubic inch flathead engine with newly rebuilt distributor and carburetor. 3 speed sliding gear (unsynchronized) transmission. Upgrades include seat belts, turn signals, passenger side taillight, halogen headlights, 6 volt positive ground alternator, temperature gauge, sidemount spare tire, trunk rack, full width rear bumper, and more.

Known issues include some unfinished items like missing floorboard screws, missing choke rod holder, needs the electric wiper and dome light wired up, the starter doesn't always engage the flywheel ring gear, possible manifold gasket leak, tires and tubes are pretty old and should be replaced, crack in passenger side window, windshield has some odd distortion, rumble seat lid does not latch, paint isn't very good, right front fender has a poorly done repair, extra holes in firewall.

Has clean California title, and tags are paid up through September 2022. See previous videos (links below) for details on the resurrection of this car from orphaned to fairly good driver condition.

There are 2 more videos showing work on Athena in post production now. Those are coming soon. I published this video now (ahead of those) because the next project Model A is already in progress and my dad wants to move it inside now. We need the room, so we are selling Athena before the last two fix-up videos publish. I am sorry for the confusion!
