Florida or DOWNSHIFTERS of Brooklyn or any one, 31 model A Coupe history.

Hi,
I just bought a 31 Model A Coupe from a man with medical problems. He bought it in 2005 in Flordia, moved it to Conn.. I'm trying to find out some history of it. Year built etc. What I found out so far is, it was black, 2" chop, filled roof, 49 flathead, 49 Ford dash sectioned in 2 pieces, still 6 volt. I just found a tag from the Downshifters of Brooklyn in a box of stuff I got with the car, could be from N.Y. Thanks in advance for any help.

The only info I have is that it's a very cool lookin' car.

 

Downshifters of Brooklyn car?

 

downshifters of brooklyn,,,,,,, tampa area group. they put on a annual show in st. pete. Never saw your car, but I would have to say it has spent some time cruisin' Americas **** shaped state. Nice auto you maybe should send it back down my way. I'll bring it to the downshifters show for you this year. Hell I wont even charge you for my time. Just looking out for ya.

I've never seen it before, but then again my brain's soup.

 

Wow so there it is! I sorta knew the guy that owned it. His name was Greg. One day he pulled up to our shop in Port Richey Fl. in that car. I've often wondered what became of it. Don't know much about the car except that I sat in it and instantly fell in love. You have a nice piece. I will mention this to a couple friends and see what I can dig up as far as detail. Meanwhile enjoy that thing!

 

Wow it still lives. I know this one, Yes it used to be black, The engine looks the same, The interior is also. The guys name is Greg and if you go here http://www.downshiftersofbrooklyn.com/ scroll down to the bottom of the page and Email Greg I'm sure he can tell you anything you want to know about it.

 

Thanks Henry Floored & Merlin I have Greg's # will call him. The H.A.M.B. never lets me down!

There should be remnants of "Lord of Flatbush" painted on the quarter panel behind the doors... The "r" in lord done like the gun in the Sopranos logo (Some jack*** name Mike did it)... if it's the same, and I think it is... the wood wheel and red dash is visible... that flatty ran perfect.

Gred F is on the right, Don "One Eye" Steuernagel is on the left... another Don is on the middle
