The Aberdeen Proving grounds had a Model T tank that they famously restored with the help of some Model T experts. I think they still have it'

It does look like a 3 bar bumper

30 Willys has 3 sections of louvers but the handles are below the molding

47-48 Ford, with the parking lt under the head lt

Navy no Vietnam 68-72. Bought a 39 Chevy pickup in 79 then a 31 A roadster in 81, a 31 A slant windshield sedan in 84, a 62 Galaxy and a 47 Ford pickup along the way. A 31 A pickup bought in 2010 is the only one I have now

In both the Virginia plates shown, the state and year come out as wide as the numbers while those on the subject car don't come out as far

Hood louvers are curved on the 33,too. I'm told the tallest people are the Wahtusis

It's a car I think any of us viewers would love to have, a 33 roadster

That hood looks like a Buick which was copied from a Packard

The notches are hard to figure

I'm guessing 65 Pontiac in front, by the headlight rim

First convertible looks like a Buick, 47 or so

I think the 3 window coupe had the handle for the rumble seat inside so I would say it's a 5 window. Also, the 1936 plate doesn't necessarily mean the car is 36.

I say 37, like John, by the way the snow isn't piled as high on the headlight

On most cars the engine (and the fan) turn clockwise as viewed from the front. You can check the fan blades to see which way it would have to turn to pull air

Good news. I have a bumper that I think will work for you. It is 65-1/4" tip to tip straight across the back or 67" around the curved front. 4" wide, 3" from the tip to the first bolt hole and 15-1/2" from there to the next hole plus one in the center. No brackets. $50 plus shipping

The reason 16 inch (35 wheels) were always more popular than 17 inch was because the tires were so common in the forties and early fifties when a lot of Model As were still in use

I was told the 15 had a 50/50 windshield while the early 16 had a 60/40 so I say the car is a 15. That's also a way to spot a 16 or 17 that has had a brass radiator installed to pass it off as a true brass T

Yeah they even have the center bolt hole

The bumper he's looking for has a pressed in black stripe

The beauty of these forums is that the ads are free.

Sounds interesting to put together a later model truck

I thought 31 Chevy by the hubcap
