The Ford Barn

Ron/IA · 03-22-2013, 02:11 PM

I have a "29 Fordor, and I thought my Model A library had information on some dimensions I am wanting. I remember seeing this info, and starting looking. I cannot find it, and my memory is guessing at some of the dimensions; so I figured the next best source would be the members of Fordbarn.

I want wheelbase (which I know is 103-1/2"), wheel tread width (which I think is 43") (this is from left wheel to right wheel, not the width of the individual tire tread), overall length front to back (which I think 130"), and overall width (which my memory fails to even guess what that is).

Please excuse my being lazy and not driving to storage and measuring.

Thanks, Ron/IA

Off the top of my head, I think that the tread width is 56 inches instead of 43 inches

Gary & Purdy - Thank you. Gary, that is the picture I remembering seeing. However, it doesn't have overall width. Purdy, when I typed 43-inches, I felt that was too small; 56-inches seems more realistic.

Anybody else have info?

Thanks, Ron/IA
