My first (HOBBY) car... grin

We know it's a Ford Model "A"

We know it's 1931

We know it's 10000000% stock
(Running boards are missing; I had them in the garage stripping them down). There were no hub caps at the time and I refused to buy those "Bool" look-a-likes. grin

BUT... can anyone tell me something else about this car that made it cost a little bit more than any other 4-door 1931 Ford when it was new? vbg

Re: My first (HOBBY) car... grin HINT
Better HINT grin JUDY, that's Oakfield Ave in back.
3 window?
No. That's a 7-window grin (but a big HINT). A 3/W
Armored glass in the windshield?
No, but you have no idea how close you are.
Slant windshield for aerodynamics?
Correct. It was introduced in March 1931.
Don provided the best "tip"
Actually you provided "tip" by asking 3 windows ~~
safety glass windshield
You got 2 words out of 3 right. Sorry, no prize grin
I should have guessed that
'31 Ford Vic had a similar color.
My Next Door Neighbor's Cars....
Notice the difference in the straight windshield.
