What have you made with your Model A parts
I noticed a wheelchair/ rocker that was posted here recently . Has anyone else made anything from Model A parts? Post some pictures of your creations.

Re: What have you made with your Model A parts
I call it a "wheel chair" because it's a chair made from wheels and other Model A parts! Yeah, it's actually a rocker and quite comfortable. Here's another couple shots of it.
Since I'm a Ford guy, I cut the rear section from a '57 Chevy and made a sofa from it. If it had been a '57 Ford I would have restored it! Jim |

I made a tool from a broken end plate and Bendix to help free up stuck engines.

Re: What have you made with your Model A parts
Another clock. I did not make this but my wife made it for me for a Christmas present a few years back. Shortly after I finished the huckster.

I used a worn out rear brake shaft to make an oil fill pipe remover.

Re: What have you made with your Model A parts
1. The guy I bought my $25.00 1930 Coupe from 55 years ago had a Model A two (2) blade fan mounted up high on a Model A greased water pump with no packing -- he used it as a toy windmill for his (3) children.
2. Years ago, saw many Model A axle housings cut & provided with a semi-circle notch to be used as non-adjustable jack stands under vehicles. |
