Default Re: Contemporary Photos of Model A Fords

Three things I noticed:
First, it seems that a lot of people put different tires and wheels on their model A's. Was that the average man's way of modifying his car?

Second, The cars weren't very shiny. Even the new A's in dealerships were not glossy. Was that the difference in paints from then till now?

Third, Those were period photos and the cars were not very old. Some were really beat up. Did people not take care of their fairly new cars? Were cars back then "just a machine to get a job done?"
