    Look like Model A, if there is a small screw in the back of the bucket they are Model A. Talkin 30-31 here.

    Model A headlights have a 9" diameter if my memory is correct and the 32 Ford 's have a 10" diameter. HRP

  6. 32 lenses also have more curve to them.

    I'm not sure but I have shared this several times...and I would be pretty confident it's a Hambers...perhaps someone will chime in...Your inspiration is definately well directed in my opinion...I thought you had a Coupe?

    Yes I do. Had a 32 Roadster. Sold it. Saw this A Roadster. And I love it. That’s what I’m building. Slowly

    I did a bit more snooping and found Wagoons Build Thread...It's a bit of a Facelift of sorts as he bought it already built but again modded and changed things he felt he would like to see differently complimenting the original spirit and soul that caught his eye...again I feel he did hit the nail on the head...

    Thanks for the kind words fellas. Still have the car and enjoying it. Not much has changed since the last update on the build thread except for a 4 spoke sprint car steering wheel and more mileage.

    Headlights work good enough. Evening drives are the best.
