Re: Taxi Cab??
To be absolutely correct in the spelling, the word "coupe" should have an accent mark over the "e" reflecting its French origins: coupé. It's supposed to be pronounced "koo-PAY". So, that curved, raised portion on the cowl of most 1928-29 Model A's (non-wooden bodied) is called a "coupé pillar" for some reason only the FoMoCo people from that era can explain. Actually, it can be seen on closed Model T bodies from the 1920's, too.
