Hot Rods Pics wanted....... Model A sedans.

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by rockabillybassman, Jun 17, 2010.

  1. I'm looking for pics specifically of hiboy A sedans (fenderless) and more specifically the rear end treatment..... tail-lights, license plate mounting, mebbe nerfs, pipes etc. I've done lots of searching, and 99.99% of pics are frontal or side shots. Think the ex-Silva sedan.
    My body is minus the bottom folded piece that runs side to side, so I'll be fabricating a new panel for that, and thought I might try to incorporate tail-lights into it.
    Thanks.

    I don't think you saw this one as it is not on the road yet and is still in Ohio.

    This thread deserves a bump!
     
  13. This is a simply done unchopped sedan built by my friend in New York, Frank Salisbury.
    I liked it so much I had to buy it from him.
    Frank is a very talented builder and an all around good guy.

    whats your opinions on flushed doors on these model A's? i was in the market for an A sedan yrs ago..and was thinking of flushing the doors.
     
  16. I think that's a lot of work for no real improvement. Model As are beautiful in their simplicity. Don't try to turn them into a "Deuce wanna-be".

    If you really want flush doors, just buy a '32.


    Here are some pics of A Tudor tails. The primered body on a dolly in the driveway is mine.
