I was cleaning out a box of tools that I had salvaged from my father's garage and ran across this set of wrenches. All are marked "For-A-Ford". Are they for a Model A? Any ideas? Here is a close up of the logo where you can see that one end of the wrench is stamped "coil" and the other end...

Is this a Model A fuel shut off valve?? :confused: What is rather puzzling is the odd shaped squared off area, by the threaded part, that screws in towards the gas tank. The squared off area does not extend to the main part of the valve body and is rotated 45 degrees..... Your thoughts...

I was recently sent a photo of a Model A engine with a Ford script cast into the block just above the water intake (below the engine number block). Under the Ford script are the letters "GS". The engine is supposedly from late 1931. Here's the photo: Is this really a Model A engine block...

Just thought that I'd share these photos of a Model A in Afghanistan which apparently one time belonged to King Amanullah (ruler from 1919-1929). Several years ago the Taliban tried to take it to Pakistan to sell it, but it was stopped at the border and returned to the National Museum in Kabul...

The first Ford Model A was delivered to the Ford Motor Company in Finland on 11 January 1928. There is a very interesting short (1:58 minute) era video on YouTube showing how the Model A's for the exhibition of "The New Ford" were crated and shipped to Finland; unpacked from their shipping...

Can anyone tell me is the original carburetor for a Model AF (small bore for Europe) engine the same as the one for the basic Model A engine? I'm guessing that it would have a smaller throat to match the smaller bore intake manifold? I'm looking for a carburetor for an AF engine (June 1929...

On eBay, there is an interesting commercial back-up electricity generator powered by what the seller claims is a 1930 Ford Model A engine. Upon closer inspection it looks to be a German G28T engine. Here are some photos of the power generation unit: Click on any of the above photos to...

Can anyone explain what happened in this photo of a collision between a GAZ-A and a R-5 airplane......and the R-5 is all covered up......maybe classified/secret aircraft of some sort??! From the damage to the GAZ-A, it looks like it was pushed sideways in the collision with no apparent damage...

There is a small Ford "Emergency Fuse Kit" tin for sale on eBay (eBay #272303687110) and I was wondering what years it would be from? I have seen the larger Ford Bulb and Fuse tin boxes before (which seem to be relatively common), but this small "Emergency Fuse Kit" seems to be rather scarce...

Where is the right place to post a question about Henry Ford? I am looking for a photo of Henry Ford wearing glasses? Any ideas? Thank you, Brad in Maryland

Can anyone tell me what this Ford Model A cowl and gas tank are from...and the year? It is located in Germany and the owner says that it is from a "1928 Victoria".....so that can't be right. No Victoria's in 1928, nor in Germany at all. The cowl looks to be 1930 or 1931? (By the way...

Can anyone shed some light on this odd looking Model A body? It looks like it may have a cargo net over the back half to contain the cargo. :eek: Do you recognize perhaps where the license plate is from (sorry I do not have a clearer shot of the car). Fordially, Brad in Maryland
