Re: New to Ford Barn, '28 A "Special Coupe" inherited.
Once I get out to where the car is, I will take a bunch of photos and start a new thread. The subject will be, what is still missing from the car.

Re: New to Ford Barn, '28 A "Special Coupe" inherited.
Welcome aboard Sean, I put my 29 Special coupe together in 1981 and aside from a few startup problems back then it's been very reliable and comfy since. The Special coupe was only made for 1 year, from mid 28 to mid 29 and the body style is my favorite. Good luck and yours looks nice.

Re: New to Ford Barn, '28 A "Special Coupe" inherited.
Welcome, Sean !
You have a very knowledgeable "neighbor" up in Vancouver, B.C. - "Farrell in Vancouver", who has restored a Special Coupe, and is a great wealth of info ! I have a '28 Special Coupe, myself, rescued from a field (by someone else) and made into a reliable driver. It's my first A and has been a great deal of fun! Special Coupes are somewhat rare... don't see many around. Keep us posted ! SC Frank |

Beautiful day for a drive. Actually left yesterday, now on second leg of trip this morning. I think this trailer will suffice! |

Re: New to Ford Barn, '28 A "Special Coupe" inherited.
Thanks Fred.
Got out here and see the car again. It hasn't run since a year ago this week. I see it needs a coil wire. That is about all I could see at this point. The morning may bring new things. So, where should I start for a coil wire? LOL! By the way, I had Les Andrews' vol. 1 shipped out here when I ordered it. Thankfully it arrived before I did! |

Is this the one you mean? It is the one that runs from the coil to the distributor. http://www.brattons.com/product.asp?...=any&PT_ID=all The above item is from Bratton's. But you could probably get it from Floyd's Model "A" Parts right there in Vancouver. Her phone number is 360-887-3346 and address is 29500 NW 31st, Ridgefield, WA 98642. Good luck. Fred
