    With split wishbones and tube shocks I would be surprised if it was stock. Would be on T springs.

    And based on the height of the grill shell being about 26"(?) I would say the fine young lady is about 5'6" and the would make the car look taller. I would ponder a great many other things about her but my wife would probably slap me!:)

    Door handles were added in the later production run. Ford made a lot of changes the first year , like steering wheel , parking brake lever on left side like a T modle later they moved to the center . You see bumpers carried over from T to A especially early production some times referred to as AR's
