Does anyone know if these Brake Drum Reinforcing Bands are still available? I can't seem to find them on Snyder's site.

Re: ‘29 Briggs 60B Fordor Pinstripe Thanks this is very helpful.

‘29 Briggs 60B Fordor Pinstripe I want to add the pinstripe to my 29 Briggs 60B Fordor but not sure on the proper location. The car is Andalusite Blue so I believe the pinstripe is French Grey. If anyone has a picture would also be appreciated. Thanks.

So did they offer both coloured tops and call them both 60A?

I was just at a friends place checking out the progress on his 28 AR Roadster Coupe and he shows me his new book. The Model A Judging Standards. Anyhow I’m checking out the Canadian car section and noticed no 60B Fordor leatherback in the list of Canadian cars. 60A is in the list showing built...

I have a Canadian car built on February 13 1929. Did Canadian cars switch over to 60B the same time as US? This Ford garage site mentions New Zealand cars as 60A in February but no mention of Canadian cars. My car’s body plate was missing and the top basically gone. It does have some’28 stuff on...

Mine were the opposite. Even using a rubber mallet, I had to tap them way harder than I felt comfortable with but they did finally go.

Turns out they were bent inwards. Seem to work now.

My '29 Fordor has a set on the upper rad tank. I read 28/29's came that way from the factory. But the hood doesn't seem to come even close to resting the hood on.

Does anyone have a picture of Camel Brown interior to compare? I know lighting makes a difference. I used fluorescent lighting. Here’s another picture showing a door panel.

That’s what I’m trying to do. It’s the same material and colour as my swatch I’m comparing.

I bought a partial old stock interior kit last fall and now installing. I need some more material for the back corners and a few more places but having a hard time matching the colour. Ecklers tells me it should be Camel Brown but mine seems a bit darker. I’m not sure how old mine is and I heard...
