Very nice 1932 Ford Coupe with the spare wheel mounted incorrectly. Valve should be at the top.

By sheer coincidence, here is another 1959 Ford Galaxie Hardtop that has been imported to Australia also painted Indian Turquoise.

Ford owners are not the only ones having problems mounting their spare wheels correctly. Check out this 1930 Hudson Super 8 Brougham. The owner had mounted the spare wheel with the Valve just where it landed. While I was talking to the owner, I checked the back of this wheel, and would you believe that Hudson, like Ford had a small hole to allow trapped water to escape. The owner thanked me for pointing this feature out, removed and remounted the spare with the Valve at the top and the hole at the bottom while I was there.

This shot looks like it is a 34 Ford Sedan?

This shot is definitely a 1933 Ford, as you can tell by the single handle on the hood.
