Guys, not going to give too much away on the series, but in the era (1927-1935) in regard to the Model-A, were there things like Stone Guards, Luggage Racks that fold up like we do in modern times? Also did the original A come with outside mirrors on both sides?

My gut says no. Want the opinion of the 'Barn' here.
 
Most things of this nature would be considered as accessories. Ford had some that were approved like the wind wings, the quail & grey hound radiator caps, the cowl lights, and the Sport Light for the earlier cars. The aftermarket was flush with all sorts of do-dads to spruce up the Ford vehicles. Luggage racks and running board racks were common as well as stone guards.

Ford dealers usually handled the accessories to make a bit more off of a sale or just to interest the owners. https://mafca.com/accessories/ Not all were approved by Ford

When you get into the cars after the model A era, radio equipment became available but that also started to force updates to the electrical system depending on complexity.

There’s actually a book that answers these questions.

Spider-Noir is a new live-action series on Prime Video starring Nicolas Cage as a 1930s private investigator, Ben Reilly, who is forced to confront his past as a masked hero called "The Spider" after a case involving mobsters and a femme fatale pulls him back in. The show blends hardboiled detective noir with superhero action, offering a gritty, pulpy take on the character, and is available to watch in both black-and-white and full color.

Thanks gdmn852. I just hadn't gotten back to the 'puter to reply to the post. It is a great series if you so like those type.
