hi, been chatting away on this great resource of a website with others on a 1927 model chevy.

i made a contingent offer about an hour ago on it, but in the event it falls through...just found this one today, per Seller, its all original and the info is as follows (pics too this time, how convenient):

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
info from seller:
Block# 835501 C 18 9
Body tag on cowl says
Job# 8850
Body# 4548

do these numbers mean anything, are they correct, do they reveal something that should look like the pics Seller supplied below?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

any input would be appreciated, especially known benefits/issues of 1929 vs. 1927 models (other than Brakes which i believe the 29 has 4 wheel brakes vs. rear tires only like the 27 year)

thanks for your time/efforts, hoping to soon purchase one of these wonderful pieces of history!

Looks like a nice driver quality '29 Sedan. Has four wheel brakes and 6 cylinder engine with 15 more HP. Will run 50-55 if you are not too timid but most don't drive them over ~ 45 mph.

Depending on price that looks like a viable purchase. Some would say it is a bad choice as "it has too many moving parts", buy a 4-cylinder.

Moving parts are ok if they work. Any antique car will have stuff that messes up. My 29 is great.
