I bet this was from Wheel of Fortune. The contestant only got one of the "1/2 car" cards.

Oddly, last night a contestant got three of the "1/2 car" cards. Maybe she could get together with this guy.

I wonder if the mechanical parts are divided similarly. Sort of like those "cut aways" done for mechanical trade teaching aids?

Maybe one of the Model A Museums would be interested?

Were it about half the price I might be interested.

And didn't Henry himself divide up a Model A in similar fashion as a sales gimmick? Yunno, showing the quality construction and padding of the seats and all?

Here is a later Ford, possibly a Model 18, done in the same fashion by Ford.

Maybe. However if the other half was already destroyed by accident, fire, or some other disaster, at least the remains remain as, oh let's say "art"?
