Identification of my model A

Posted by Keith on May 02, 1998 at 22:22:25

I have recently inherited a Model A from my grandfather. I have no idea what I have, but I believe it is a 31' coupe of some sort. The exterior color was originally black as far as I can tell and it has a trunk, not a rumble seat. It has dual lamp head lamps and the cowel lamps over a chrome trim strip which runs up and over the cowel from fender to fender. The grille-radiator has a black inset with a chrome Ford emblem applied in the middle. The headlamps, cowel lamps, and radiator ring are all nickel plated. The interior has some rough light tan (as best as I can tell) fabric covering all major surfaces and seat. The firewall I believe is what they call "indented" behind the engine and where the fuel comes through. The engine # is *A1478035* however I have not found the # on the frame yet. The engine was rebuilt over 10 years ago but hasn't run since. I am not sure if it is the original engine but am pretty sure it is a 31' body. If anyone can tell me what type of coupe I have, I would sure appreciate it.
