Default 1931 Oakland

I saw this on Craig'slist and thought I would pass it along as you don't see these too often. For as much as you can see in the pictures, it looks like a super solid project.

"This would be a great project car. Alot of people mistake it for a ford, it is not a ford. This oakland is the last year they were made. In 1932 the went over to Pontiac. They were made by fisher body co. in detroit Michigan. Any more information Call 1-814-572-4799 and ask for Bob"

If I'm not mistaken it has a ford straight 6 in it, that'd have to go before I'd worry about the chevy steering wheel.

Ad states he had to put brakes on it......doesn't look any different than when I first saw it for sale. What did he possibly do to justify jacking up the asking price by thousands?
