Hello out there. Years back I visited Rod Bods over in the Reno area. I was interested in their work but was already involved with another project so I really never looked back. I know that they sold off the business in '08 or '09. How did their bodies compare to the original Ford in...

Is it possible to use a '32 Ford Chassis on a '30-'31 tudor sedan, and still use the fenders? I am looking at a full fendered, '30 sedan, which is in need of a new chassis. I don't want to buy it and then stick another "A" chassis under it. I was wondering if anyone out there has used both...

Has anyone out there modified an aftermarket Model A, IFS chassis, into a '32 style chassis for a highboy? My though had been to remove the front suspension, replace or modify the front crossmember to accommodate a conventional buggy spring or modify for a semi-eliptical sprung front axel...

I have a top of the line radiator(for a Chevy 350) in a Model A. The manufacturer has not responded to questions about modifying the radiator to fit a '32 shell. I'm sure he would like to sell me another radiator ... but ... that isn't going to happen. If the faux radiator neck is removed...

Hello. Has anyone out there modified a pair of '32 style, roadster bases and stanchions to fit a Model A roadster? It would be waaaaay too beyond belief that the two cowls share the same contours ... Right? Has anyone heard of an aftermarket product that is made for the "A". Have any of...

SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD Unknown set of roadster top irons for sale. I have been trying for several weeks to identify this top set. They were originally touted as '32 Ford because the former owner had a '32. An other person suggested that they might be '31 Ford DeLuxe. I do not...

I've huffed and puffed and still can't break the code! I have been trying to I.D. some roadster top irons. No results. We have pretty much eliminated '31 and '32 Ford. Does anyone out there have a '33 or '34 Ford roadster ... or any other brand/year roadster, that might recognize this top...

For a couple of week I have been trying to figure out if I have a set of '32 or Model A top irons and wood. I am going to try to post a couple of pictures in hope that someone can identify my top. Thanks. Joe Altieri

Help. I have a set of roadster top irons/bows and header. The fellow from whom I bought them said they are from his '32 roadster, which he sold 35 years ago. I have had a couple of people say that they couldn't definitively ID them a '32, so I thought I would ask if anyone has a picture of a...

Help. I recently acquired a set of '32 top irons and bows. A question has been raised as to whether they are actually '32 and not Model A. How can I definitively prove that they are '32? Any help wpuld be greatly appreciated. Thanks. joe

Can anyone tell me the value of a set of original '32 top rails complete with header and wooden bow? I wandered into a neighbor's garage and spotted a set of top irons. He has kept them for years even though he sold the car many years ago. He just wants to clean out the garage. Thanks. joe

Hello. I am looking for a nice, straight, visor for a 1930-1931 Coupe. What do you have? Thanks. Joe

Hello, I know it is blasphemy to think that anyone would modify a Model A ... BUT, modified cars are part of our heritage. With that said, have any of you found an easy to install, after market, air conditioner to install in a V8 powered Model A coupe? It is time for a little comfort. ( My...

Complete 1930 "A" chassis with free turning engine**, transmission, driveshaft, front and rear axels and springs, steering column and wheel, front fender brackets, running board brackets, radiator and shell, complete hood, firewall, light bar with 2 nice buckets and Sparton horn, vacuum...

I am having "brain fade". When properly installed, is the metal panel above the windshield on a '30 coupe flush with the wooden header, ( and the underside of the visor) or is it about 1/4 inch below the wood? Does the welting cover the gap? Is the welting fastened under the top edge of...

Howdy, A 1930 Model A Coupe which I purchased in November of '09 has matching chassis and engine numbers, but also has a number on a sub-frame crossmember. The number is clearly stamped and appears to be: an inverted large case V (or is it an A without a cross bar?) followed by S2254. Can...
