Tastes change over time and especially as you get older. My favorite car as a teen was the deluxe roadster. Now, at 79, I like the Fordor town car. I think my car is a 170B.
 
I tried to make my post a poll, but the all of the body style numbers did not show. My favorites are the 45B Deluxe Coupe and the 190A Victoria Coupe.
 
Canadian, Sport Roadster. Built for a short time starting August 1929. Although still classed as a 40-A, the following features differ from the Standard Roadster;

> Folding windshield with Nickel plated brass stanchions.

> Dust hood (top boot).

> Driver's side mounted spare wheel and tire.

> Trunk rack.

> Full length rear bumper bars.

> Rumble seat.

> Special paint colors, Mount Vernon Green, Nankeen Brown and Henna Red. Mouldings and Rear Deck were Black, with a double stripe of Cameo Cream.
 
Hello, can I pick two? 40 B Deluxe Roadster, have a 31 , and 1931 slant windshield sedan. If I should get another Model A that’s what it would be.
 
Everyone loves the sportiness of a roadster, but as for touring, there's no beating a Fordor.
 
1. 68c
2. 160’s
3. A400- great looking …with the top up!
4. 190–steel top
5.180 but anyway problematic car

Regretfully those are all full of wood!
