Here is that article from Doc Kalinka. I think it is attached ?

Sorry that the text is not very clear in the above pictures. I copied this from the internet years ago that is all the better I could make it today. Ray

Not sure if this magazine article from 1928 contains official Ford photos but it is pretty interesting. Ray

I reduced the size of your picture and here it is. I have a couple of these wheels but they are in storage and I haven't seen them in years. Yours looks a little different than what I remember, but if I get to the warehouse today I"ll take pictures and post one for us to compare. Ray

Nice photo. Obviously a player piano and Edsel is not really playing. Agree late '30s. We inherited my maternal Grandmother's player piano that looks similar to this one. They bought it in 1934.

Turned 70 this past July. Bought my first "A" in 1978. Still have it. Late 1931 Deluxe Tudor. Has potential to be fine points car. Purchased 5 more "A's" after that. Currently helping one of my grandsons restore an early build (April 1, 1964) Mustang. Ray

Lots of "fine point" detailing on that car. Looks like it was a Marc of Excellence winner at one of the past National Meets. Always have to be careful buying on E-Bay. Ray

I have acquired a few side bowl style carbs over the past 30 or so years since that is the correct one for my late '31 Tudor. Pardon the dust as some of these have been sitting on the same shelf in my basement for 25 years. Left of the Zenith-3 side bowl on the bottom is a Zenith-3 non...

Beginning in about June of 1931 Ford began producing the Deluxe Tudor. Lots of changes from the early 1931 Tudors. The front seats did have an extended back that eliminated the gap on the earlier Tudor seats. Also, the drivers seat was about 3 inches or so wider than before and was on...

The '31 deluxe tudor seat was indeed wider than the non deluxe tudor.

Here is the one from my late '31 deluxe tudor.

Here is the guide I used when installing the one in my 1931 OCPU. Ray

Just curious Steve, was this one of the pictures you received ?

In addition to above, the driver's seat was about 3 inches wider on the 1931 Deluxe Tudor. Most of the 30+ differences between 1930 ?? and 1931 deluxe tudors were minor and also found on non deluxe tudors as well as on most 1931 body styles. Ray

My 1928 Special Coupe was judged at the Loveland National Meet last year and scored very well. I received an 8 point deduction on the 5000 point scale for "wrong backing plates for month/year". Not a huge deduction. This is NOT a knock on the guys doing the judging because, by golly, if you go...

I figured right off that they were Chevys. Model A's would have been priced higher, even back then. ;) Ray

July of 1948. Fairly early "baby-boomer". Ray

Looks like the seller lowered the reserve before the deadline to do so. If the high bidder is who I think he is there won't be much of a problem with the financial part of this deal. I was very tempted to bid on this car, but if I was the high bidder my wife of 46+ years would have had...

Neil Here are pictures of the backside of the brackets.
