Default Re: ford barn find

This is obviously one of the rarely seen Roadsters* (one of four made) that were made in 1940. You can tell by the steering wheel and the 4 tire wheels.
Even many Model A experts/historians have only seen two of these. The fourth 1940 A was lost during the scrap drives of WW2.

My observation mirrors Marshall Daut's - without a much closer look, I would say it is a Standard Roadster. However, considering all of the other obvious later parts, etc., it may (like so many others) been spliced together from various other cars - so, as they say - the devil is in the details.
