Default Is this Model A or Model T?

I have this pressed metal plate with Ford script that measures 8"L x 2"W and have no idea what it is or for. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Craig

Thank you. Is this for all versions of the A, or just particular body types?

Definitely not a Tudor. Tudor sill plates are about twice as long. Go to one of the vendor sites and look up sill plates. That will give you good information.

You have a zinc door sill plate for a 28-31 Model A Coupe, Sport Coupe, and Business Coupe.

I'm watching this one closely because I have a pair the same.

Slatgrille_ If you have a pair of those not dinged up, I would be interested in buying from you for our 28 business coupe. Email me at [email protected]

Mike, I tried emailing you, but it came back as a 'failure' notice. I only have this one sill plate though.

Why not use the private message app right in FordBarn instead of giving the world your email address?
