The Ford Barn

Is the tool shown a Model A Ford tire iron and if so what is the years used and part number. The tool is 16 3/4” long.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Never seen a Model A Tire Iron like that! I'd have to say No!!

How about a Fordbarn forum challenge; who has the best guess?
Wild A-- Guess; early model jack handle?

Ditto. I had one for my 1929 Chevy coach I had in high school. It had the uncommon 20" wooden artillery wheels. The slot in the rim nut end was for opening and closing a lock on the split rims. The standard steel disc wheels also used it.

My 1931 Chevrolet has one in the trunk but whether it is original or a flea market find, I have no idea. I know it works well.

What size is the hex opening?

Thank you for all your help. I measured straight across flat side to flat side and it measures about 13/16”.
