Ford, The Survivor
Well since Ford is the only one of the Big 3, even remotely looking
like a survivor, here is a little salute. http://homepage.mac.com/lco/filechute/ModelA_0597c.jpg http://homepage.mac.com/lco/filechute/ModelA_0604c.jpg http://homepage.mac.com/lco/filechute/ModelA_0605c.jpg -- Regards, Savageduck |

You noticed, he even mixed types. He has Firestone cross-plies on the front and radials on the back. I suspect this is not all it appears to be. There appears to be some work to the rear end, as evidence by the appearance of the rear wheel wells. He is also using standard California plates with plain vanilla registration, not Historic Vehicle plates. I have a feeling an inspection under the hood would reveal something other than a restored original engine. -- Regards, Savageduck |

This is a Model A, which was offered in various color options, but not black http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Model_A_(1927-1931) -- Regards, Savageduck |

Black was the standard colour but you could order it in other colours.
