WELL, I HAVE ONE I'M JUST COMPLETING, ACTUALLY DRIVING IT WHEN THE WEATHER PERMITS. I LOVE THIS LITTLE COUPE.

BUT....MY WIFE SAYS IF I AM WILL TO PART COMPANY WITH THE 3 SNOWMOBILES, ATV, DUNEBUGGY AND MOTORHOME, MAYBE I CAN GET ANOTHER. I GUESS I'LL SETTLE WITH THE ONE I HAVE.

I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO GET PIGGISH AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE.......'SIDES, THERE AIN'T ENOUGH ROOM IN MY GARAGE FOR ANY MORE STUFF.....

I think your wife has the right idea. I'd rather have one Model A over all those other toys. I've had enough cold hands, bouncing around and rolling over on my 1969 Scorpion to last me a lifetime!

oldmodelaguy · 03-06-2013, 09:46 PM

Jordan · 03-06-2013, 10:22 PM

a3cj · 03-06-2013, 11:57 PM

I have 2, a 29 CC pickup and a 30 Coupe but would love to have several more. I do not think a person could have to many.

Skibb · 03-06-2013, 11:58 PM

My wife and I have

1931 Model A Town Sedan, Murray Body It's fun to drive. My wife wants to do the Great Race in this car (coming in last in that race is okay with us).

1930 Model A 3 Window Sdn, Briggs Body. Being restored by us'ns.

Geo. H · 03-07-2013, 01:02 AM

31 roadster and 30 coupe, but the coupe is for sale. Not enough years left.

Special Coupe Frank · 03-07-2013, 09:21 AM

Not Enough !

At this moment, about 1 and 1/3 Model A's: 1928 Special Coupe 49-A and running gear, fenders / aprons / wheels from a '29 Fordor.

Next on the Wish-list would be a Sedan and an AA Open Express.

Funny stuff lol. I have a 30 Coupe, 31 Pickup, both are drivers. Good thing I'm in construction, I'm building a small addition to the rear of my two car garage for the a future A.

DJ S · 10-02-2015, 07:24 PM

4 in the family
1930 Standard Roadster

1930 Tudor (2)

Domino · 10-02-2015, 07:30 PM

3 - 1930 Murray Town sedan, 1930 tudor, and 1930 fordor Murray. Just gave my coupe project to my son. Bet as long as he lives he'll never forget that Dad gave him an A, 1930 coupe.

Dick Carne · 10-02-2015, 11:00 PM

We've been blessed to have been collecting for a number of years, so at least for now, we have three that are restored: '28 roadster and '29 phaeton for summer use, and a '29 Briggs Town Sedan for winter use; we also have a '29 Mail Truck that is perhaps 60% restored, the remnants of another '29 phaeton, and three frames/running gears that could be used for future projects (along with acquired gas tanks and firewalls); then there is the '23 T that's about 75% done and the remnants (frame and some body parts for a '19 T), and another '29 Murray Town Sedan that our oldest daughter and her family have (they used to join us for occasional outings before they moved out of state). ... And then there is the matter of the three Corvettes.

Pmsqrd · 10-03-2015, 12:06 AM

1930 Roadster with a trunk( Raggedy Ann),1931 CC wide bed (Chip),1931 Victoria (Miss Daisy).

dlfrisch · 10-03-2015, 10:49 AM

I have owned three A's over the years. Right now I have ONE. A completely rebuild - restored 1930 Deluxe Coupe and it is for sale. Should be in the Restorer Magazine - next issue. We are moving and we have to many other vehicles to ship. If, I find a new home for our "A", later on, I will find another one - finished or project car to buy. This one is a daily driver and we have enjoyed a lot of thumbs up and interesting conversations with people, while we are out and around.

smittykid · 10-03-2015, 11:22 AM

I have 4. 28 CCPU(not pictured in avatar) 29 Special Coupe, 29 Fodor Leather Back and a 30 Coupe. Love em' all !

mhsprecher · 10-03-2015, 11:24 AM

I have two, shown in my avatar. I bought the sedan first and thought that was enough and then the roadster came along and I could not pass it up. I think this is it, but you never know. If a decent, unrestored, running, driving late pickup came along, I just might be tempted. I let one get away a few weeks ago.....

redmodelt · 10-03-2015, 02:13 PM

Zero A's
1 T
