Model A in italy made in the USA
Hello to all, I am new to this site. I have a 1930 Model A tudor Ford here in Italy. I would like to know if there are any other Model A owners in Italy, or Europe, who I can get in touch with to discuss either maintenance, or other topics dealing with a Model A Ford? Thank you for your time Ron

Re: Model A in italy made in the USA
Ciao Ron,
There are Model A's all over Europe....including several in Italy. Do you know about the Museo "Ford Gratton" in the eastern edge of Italy? Here is the link: http://members.xoom.virgilio.it/norvegia/gratt_00.htm It has been a while since I was there, but they had several Model A's on display at the time. The museum's facade is a recreation of the Ford assembly plant that used to be in Italy (where Model A's were assembled at one time). Here is what the original one looked like: ....and the Museo "Ford Gratton" facade: Here is the correct owners manual for your 1930 car: ....and your car in a 1930 sales brochure: Ciao, Brad in Maryland (USA) Last edited by Brad in Germany; 10-27-2017 at 01:19 AM. |

Thanks for the information. tried the site, it does not work for me. I will do a little looking on the net and maybe I can find the place. Is that owners manual for sale? I bought my Model A in Maryland back in September 2016. shipped it over to Italy and still have not gotten the tags. Working on it. Perhaps this comping month all will be worked out and I can drive to Florence in the spring next year. Ron52 |

Ciao Ron,
Sorry the Owner's Manual is not for sale. Here is a photo of the introductory brochure for Italy: ....and an Italian version of the Model A parts book: You should go to the "Auto Moto d'Epoca" this weekend in Padova (https://autoemotodepoca.com ). With some luck, you might find some Model A parts there, maybe....? Brad in Maryland |
