1930 Radiator Stine Guard
I own a 1930 model A Tudor. I want to purchase a radiator stone guard for it. I found a good deal on one for a 1931. Does anyone know what the difference is between the 1930 and 1931 guards and if the 31 would fit my 30?

Re: 1930 Radiator Stine Guard
The Ford emblem on the radiator shell is in a different location on the '30 as opposed to the '31. Hence the hole on the stone guard will not line up with the emblem on the shell and looks like shit, in my opinion.

Mac's appears to have them, but they must be extra wide because under "details" it says they protect your lights from the elements.

Re: 1930 Radiator Stine Guard
A few years ago someone bought stainless grid and mounted it inside the radiator shell. It looked good and the original radiator look was not compromised. Depends on what you want the stone guard for. Is it to hide the shell or protect the radiator. Mine hides a welded up shell.

I've got one of those original Globe guard's on my '31 roadster. The '31 emblem on the eBay guard was added by someone. Globe guard's did not come from the factory with the Ford emblem installed. At first I thought the emblem was to low, but compared to the one I put on my car it is correct. And the emblem on my guard is attached with a stud & nut. It is easily removed if wanted. The two attaching arms screwed to the plates on the side of the eBay guard also do not look correct. In the first pic the wing emblem above the crank hole is the Globe factory label. Bob-A |
