George Albright Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Does anyone know the current owner of the Edsel Ford 1930 Ford Model A dual cowl phaeton built one off by LeBaron? I believe it was originally black. I have been told it survives and was shown at Pebble Beach in the last 10-15 years,possibly the year that Ford Motor Co. was highlighted at PB. Thanks?

Shop Rat Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 George, I will call a friend of mine tomorrow and ask him if he knows about this car. He judges at Pebble Beach, Ameilia Island, etc. and he may know where it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shop Rat Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 (edited) George, I just contacted my friend (he is also a friend of West) and he is not aware of the car you are trying to find. He had been out of town for a few days and just returned. Sorry he couldn't help but at least I tried.

West Peterson Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I remember when Pebble Beach had a bunch of Fords displayed a few years ago, but I DO NOT remember one of them being a Model A LeBaron dual cowl phaeton. That is the type of body style I hardly think I'd forget. Are you sure about the description, George? If not, I'd sure love to see it when you find it.Susan,I had the pleasure of judging with Bill at Amelia Island this year. Through all the years we've judged at the same concours, I've never had the chance to judge on the same team until this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then I met you through these forums years later. Oh, just so you know, I keep reminding him that he should leave you that car you love so much. He just kind of laughs softly as I am sure you have heard him do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest carrierpigeon Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I can't confirm that the dual cowl phaeton model A that I saw was a LeBaron or even a 1930 model, but I can say that I saw and photographed a dual cowl Model A phaeton at a hotrod show in Oklahoma City, OK in 1980. It was silver with Black Hartz cloth top. It had the quail radiator cap and was very tastefully original, body-wise, though the drivetrain had obviously been updated as the wider wheels and modern tires betrayed. I have no idea where those pictures are now and sorry to say, this 30 year old sighting is not a very hot lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
