G'Day Mike & Malcolm,
According to what is shown in the Judging Standards, the bumpers & headlights on my Canadian A are the same as the American ones. The only difference is the Canadian models have different bumper clamps, also on my 1930 "Twolite" headlamps the script differs slightly from all other photos I've seen. Hope this is some help.

: Is there a difference between Canadian and US bumpers and headlights. If not I know where some headlight shells and bumpers can be located. Bumpers would need prep and plate but would be original and headlight shells would be presentable from my perspective.
: God Speed Under 50.
: The Model A Fool.
: : So, is it true that there are VERY few original 28/29 headlights left in Canada which are useable?I've found many 30/31's, but no older ones.IF found, what is it reasonable to pay?(New repros are about $400 Canadian here.)
: : And bumpers?From what I've read it seems just as reasonable to buy repros unless you locate real fine originals.True?
: : As you may have sensed, my car was somewhat barren when I embarked upon this project.Still darn fine fun!
: : Thanks!
