Re: 1930's USA street scenes in color

I saw this video a month or so ago. Can anyone explain the white fenders on the coupe next to the 2 motorcycle cops in the first part of the video? I thought Canada didn't start doing body color...

1930 Michigan plate or someone that can restore

As the header says, I'm looking for a 1930 plate in good condition or a person that can restore an existing plate that I already have.

Re: Recommendation for rim / tire combo

That makes sense. I've seen 16" rims cheaper as well. Plus, it sure does make them easier to spot due to the valve stem location.

Recommendation for rim / tire combo

I have stock rims and tires but want to switch to radials. I also love the look of the bigger hub cap so might as well change both.

Re: Opportunity to buy a 2nd Model A

I think it got better. At first she kept asking me why I bought the truck and not a tudor. But after a few car shows, parades and rides to the park to walk the dog, she loves all the waves and...

Re: Opportunity to buy a 2nd Model A

Re: The color of my truck has a name

Not sure how that's relevant. Just talking about color, not hot dogs unless the color was close to mustard. Then it would be.


A friend called it nacho colored though, so food related.

Re: The color of my truck has a name

I thought it would be close to a school bus or the new Cyber Orange on the Bronco.

Re: Opportunity to buy a 2nd Model A

Yes, it does sound like a good match for you. So, apparently some of the other members that are telling me to ditch my wife aren't as lucky.

I should be hearing back from the owner of the car...
