What’s special about this listing

This car was owned by a man who owned and operated an machine shop (Cooney Machine), with his sons in Ogden Utah. Dad loved the old antique cars and had a few, plus he collected a lot of parts for them. I met him when I was a young child, as my father (a tool and die maker himself), would call upon him to have parts made. In the 80's and 90's I sold a lot of model A parts on Ebay, and I would consult with Mr. Cooney from time to time because I knew he had a large collection of parts. Then some time in the late 1990's I happen to call him only to discover that he was in the hospital and had suffered from what I was told was a heart attack. I never heard from him again, after that and soon later I quit selling parts.
Recently I contacted one of his sons and I inquired about the remaining parts, when I was told about this car. So I offered to help sell it and here I am presenting it now.
