if you could go back in time, what Model "A" parts would you bring back?

On page 277 in the Service Bulletins reprint is a picture of this new spare tyre cover . Many years ago I acquired the outer only . It was NOS and was found when a Ford main dealer building was being demolished in Manchester England it was in a long disused loft along with other sheet metal including a NOS 31 welled front fender which luckily I also got .This cover has a stainless band not plated with a neat red on gold transfer "Made in Canada" .Been looking for many years for the inner but no luck that is one thing I would certainly bring back .

John in same place same weather .

A plain old Model J (who'd want one of those? ) cost as much as $19,000. Modern paper money won't be any good in 1928-31. Probably best to take gold back with you. At the then-current statutory price of $20.67 per troy ounce, you'll need about 65 pounds. Or I suppose you could just steal the Duesy. The statute of limitations will have run out by the time you get back.

Yep - Travelers Wagon, Taxi, Town Car Delivery, Special Delivery, Deluxe Closed Cab, Australian Open Cab "Ute", just about any AA...the list goes on. Yeah, I like commercials and they are rarer than passenger cars.
