    Thanks Ivan! I think you just gave me an idea of what to build with it. In memory of the master EVH, Phase 90 pedal! Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Thanks Katy, I figured it would be something like that. I am probably going to make it into a guitar pedal. Its a perfect size for that Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    I found the old wheels and put them on the car. I can clearly see the difference now between the two different types of 21" model A wheels. It looks like i have 1 decent AR wheel so ill be on the look out for a few more. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Thanks for all the awesome help with this car. Is there anywhere that reproduces the AR style wheels? Or is the second hand market the only way to find them? I have some other 21" wheels up in a barn that are in rough shape. Im pretty sure they came on the car when it arrived. Ill bring...

    Hello all, Thanks for all the info on the Model A. Things have been going well. Im just waiting for some new tires to arrive. A local ad came up in my area for wheels. I figure ill ask the experts if they are still willing to help. Will these work for an early 1928? Apart from the color they...

    Thanks for all the great information regarding this car. My focus right now is to just get it back on road and making it safe to drive (wiring, tyres). In time i would like to bring it back to stock but realize it will take time/money and like most of us those are the two things hardest to come...

    Ill mount up the wheels and see how they fit and also check the firewall for a stamped serial number. I would like to bring it back to stock specs eventually and think a re-wire would be a good thing also. Does anyone know of a place in Canada that sells reproduction early 1928 Model A parts? Or...

    Thanks for the info Bob, That brings up another question regarding the single point braking system. I've read that there are certain wheels that were used on the early cars that fit the hubs correctly without having to use a spacer. Im wondering if these are correct for that earlier design...

    The car was drivable when it was parked where it currently sits around 20 years ago. Im getting new Universal 21" tires put on it, as it requires a safety check to get license plates for it. I have noticed that there is some wiring unhooked, its the green wire from the regulator and a random...

    Thanks for all the replies. The car is serial number A12XXX and the engine is the same number CA12XXX. Does that make it Canadian? It was converted to a 12VDC system. I am unsure if it is a negative ground but judging by the red starter wire i am guessing that it is. Anyways here are a few...

    Hey all, new member here. I am looking to chat with someone about a few mods that were done on an early 1928 Ford Model A. Mostly electrical stuff. The car was restored in the late 80's by my father so i would think these mods were fairly common. Unfortunately he is no longer with us to ask so...
