Default How many Model A's do you have?

Model A's seem to be like potato chips, can't have just 1. So how many do you have in any of the states, restored, restoring, etc. and what are they?

I have a '28 roadster that is a "driver" should be painted, but I am having too much fun driving it right now. I also have a Fordoor that the wood is shot on and that is going to be converted to either a wood bodied wagon or huckster. Lastly, I have a complete running gear that I am hoarding for spar parts.

Default Survey says

OK, lets try to put in a link.

Survey

The above link should get you to a survey that I did which lists how many Model As "Ford Barners" have.

Excellent, Thanks! So it looks like while about half have 1, 44 % have from one to 4! I knew I wasn't alone. Now I can tell my wife that I am not the only one!

I thank all who have replied to my "survey" so far. Looks like unless there are storage limitations, more than 1 is the norm! So I can tell the Mrs. that we don't have too many old cars. Since folks have been listing all their cars I might as well add the rest, in addition to the 28 Roadster A, 29 woodie donor Fordoor, I have a 72 VW camper that I bought in college 21 years ago and a 79 beetle convertible for the Mrs. that is in the process of getting new heater channels and floors, an 83 Harley FXRS and a 2000 Harley Roadglide. I LOVE internal combustion toys. Yes, I also love this hobby! Besides, like I tell the wife, if I'm too busy with toys, I can't get into any trouble like drinking, gambling, womanizing or (gasp) golf! (just kidding golfers!)

One fully restored 1928 Tudor AR and one parts car and AR chassis that just sold for rodder land. Too bad, it could have been restored but more $ to a rodder.

Currently have three; fine point blue ribbon 29 Tudor Sedan (MARC of Excellence winner), 1930 standard coupe, 1931 victoria. Garage space is the only limiting factor in acquiring more.
