Here's some fun. Next time you're at an antique car show and see one of those for sale along with the proud owner sitting nearby, try this;

Walk up with your friend and express an interest in buying the car. Then, make sure the owner is listening as you and you friend discuss how you plan to chop and channel the thing and mod it out to the max.

See if he doesn't rip the for sale sign out of the window.

The brown one's a '28 or'29, the blue one is '30 or '31. Model A Ford. [:)]

How about the silver one?

- Jim Katen, Oregon

The silver or grey Model A sedan has the earlier '28 or 9 visor. Can't see the door post or front fender to confirm. Limited access, unable to inspect. [:)]

The blue job has the optional spare tire mount in the front fender. This gave better access to the rumble seat.

Nolan, sounds like your coupe just had the big trunk for traveling salesman?

Richard could be right about the Honda. I can't tell a Honda from a Chevy.

Dang, that's pretty good. I was thinking several years earlier on all three.

Or if he doesn't go all Walk Kowalski on you.

"You can only have it if you don't chop-top the roof like one of those beaners, don't paint any idiotic flames on it like some white trash hillbilly, and don't put a big, gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipperheads' cars. It just looks like hell. If you can refrain from doing any of that... it's yours."

Pre-1928 they would have to be Model T's. Narrower body style, flat roof, less stylish radiator, almost always wooden spoke wheels.
