What's your favorite year and why?
 

Like the title says, what is your favorite year model A and why?

I like the 30-31 because they have a bigger radiator. I like the looks of the 28-29 a little better but the 30-31 get my vote.

I like the looks of our 29 Sport Coupe, have had other Model A's including a 31 Sport Coupe but I think the 29 looks the best.

That's why restaurants have menu's. Enjoy you favorites.

'31

My first was a '31 AA 280A (when I was 14)
My second was a '31 fordor (when I was 17)

Then after 50 years without one,

My third (and current) is a '31 CCPU

Just something about the '31 that appeals to me.

1930. I like the cowl/A pillar transition of the '30-'31 but like the '30 rad shell better than the '31.

31 coupe gets it for me. I just like the lines better.

I like the more antique look of the 28-29, although I have had them all.

If you have two(2) or more Model A's .... not a bad idea to have both same year.... for interchangeable wheels, tires, tubes, bumpers, head light bars, and other parts.

They're all great, but to choose one year I would say 1931. I like the lines a little better on the 30-31. Also, I like the 19" wheels.

I had an early '30 5 Window & an early '29 5 Window, it's FUN to study the DIFFERENCES!

I like the 30/31 style the best. They look really classy to me. The 28/29 is a little to Model Tish for me. But I love the Opera coupe with its oval window.

Like the song says, little deuce coupe :-)

Couldn't swing a 32, settled for a late 31 tudor, closest I could get to the deuce coupe!
After work on, driving the 31, would not will not sell. "A's" are so much fun !

This is exactly what I think. I have a 31 jalopy and am looking for something nicer for the family, just can't decide what year sedan I want.

I like the 1931 rad shell best. This may explain why I have 3 of them. :). Jeff

I lust after the Victoria and A400 but they are way beyond my means. I have a '31 40-B Dlx Roadster, so I guess that the '30/'31 would be considered my favorite. However, I like the T look of the '28/'29's. Each to his own........just drive 'em and enjoy! Russ

I like 1928 because I have a restored 28 tudor and I used to have a 28 Packard
443 super 8 convertible coupe that I spent a lot of money restoring and only used a few times before I moved to Northern Calif. I now have a large garage and 6 model As of various years and body styles. I still miss that Packard.

1929 Town sedan, Briggs:)
It's is the only, even thought it was a rust bucket and I parted it out , A I have owned. With the enclosed gas tank it has the body style of the 30-31 but as several said below, still antique in style.

I like the 30's the best. I like the long swopping front fenders on the 30 and 31's but I still like the 30's the best. I have 5 at the present and 3 are 30 models.

I like my 29's because they look like an "old" car. The 30-31 are to "uptownish" for me.

Re: What's your favorite year and why?
 

I like all 4 years of the Model "A"s. MY favorite: the 1931, just to me it looks sporty. I have a 28, two 31's and working on a 30 Station Wagon.
Enjoy and drive your "A"
