Default A simple question

I almost feel bad about this simple question. But I was looking at a 31 Model A coupe and was wondering if it would fit in my storage area. Does anyone know off the top of there head what the length of this kind of car is from bumper to bumper? I tried to find this info on some sites but gave up.

Thanks

I believe they are about 13 to 15 feet. My dads sport coupe is about that and I can imagine that they arent much different in length.

Dimensions for some Model A body styles were posted somewhere recently.

A 30 Coupe was listed at 12 3/4'. Would assume same for 31'.

I was researching before getting my Coupe, and I determined that my '28 Special Coupe would fit in a space 13 ft long. So I cleaned a space in my garage 13 feet deep...
