Wow. Thanks to everyone for taking the time to provide so much info. I will continue with the suggested investigations to determine what body type this might be. By the way, I posted a few more videos of the restoration if anyone is interested. Have a great day. Steve...

Thanks for your reply. Based on statements made, I did a bit more research. The passenger side of the rail shows bolt holes for the mount. The mount is not welded. The four-hole bolt pattern on the rail looks to be made at a factory because the holes are perfectly round. Plus, the same...

Hi All! Does anyone know which Model A models had a spare tire mounted in the FRONT PASSENGER FENDER? I am trying to figure out if the one in my car was added somewhere in the past or maybe an option when the car was new or came stock. My car is a 1930 and is either a modified Standard Sedan...

Slow but sure... Check out my latest two videos on restoring our 1930 Briggs Fordor Sedan. I should receive the rebuilt engine in two weeks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dsLS_EMdlU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qR3TZ_0u5zY Starting to put the front end back together this week...

Hello All, I’m making progress with the restoration of my 1930 Briggs Fordor. You can see my videos below. Part 1 – Acquisition https://youtu.be/Z4DWpgKhBus Part 2 – Will it Start? https://youtu.be/E3tzIyCb5PQ Part 3 – Engine Removal https://youtu.be/vM1s1BlHTqc Part 4 – Body Parts Removal...

Video 2 shows our dog rolling around in the background. You would not believe how many comments that I have received about the dog. Really? Is this what they call being photo bombed?

Hi Mike Peters, Thanks for your comments. I looked at the wiper motor and could not find any manufacturer name. I even removed the cover and nothing was noted. The unit does not have an on/off switch. However, I did find a toggle switch on the driver side panel that I suspect controls the...

Thanks for all of the comments. Looking forward to getting some advice as I progress. Steve

Hi Group, Just posted a couple of videos on YouTube. Take a look. This should be fun to restore. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChZMw2PdrXciVVs_CZqWeYQ/featured

Thank you all for the replies. Upon further investigation, 1. There are cowl lights that do not look like add-ons. 2. The dome light is round and just behind the front seat. 3. There is no grain of any type. 4. There is no arm rest in the middle of the back seat. No arm rests at all. 5. It...

Hello, I recently purchased my fourth (and last) A to restore. This one I would consider a barn find. It is stock and complete. Very little rust. It's been sitting in storage for three decades at a minimum. Please help me in identifying the body style. I know that it is a 1930 Fordor with a...

Thanks to all for your comments. With little to no sources for the metal components needed, my "kit" search is over. However, my search for an existing station wagon will continue. Eventually, I'll find one. Thanks again. Steve

Hi Ronn, Thanks for your reply. I only recently started my research on complete Woody body kits and am not finding any source for them. As you mentioned, there are several companies out there that have gone out of business or are no longer making them. I suspect that I will be buying a Woody...

Hello All, I am new to the Ford Barn. Lots of great information. I am looking for an individual or company that manufactures and sells as a kit the Model A station wagon bodies, complete with wood and hardware. There are a number of older posts on this site but was looking for current...
