1929 Ford Model A Sedan

[Sycamore67]

This is something I have been working on for two years.  I would work on it for awhile, get stuck on something and then come back later.  It was a combination of a plan and actual drawings of the car.  A lot of different tools were used but many cut with my scrollsaw.  The fenders were compound cut and then shaped.  The difficult part was fitting the fenders to the curved body.  The Spoke wheels were a huge challenge and I made many bad ones before figuring it out.L

WOW Larry, that is really cool. Looks like it came from a model kit. Did you have to purchase some additional tools to do this?

That is awesome, well done.  Models are a real fun build.  Like you it is something I work on off and on over a long period of time.  I just purchased a model "T" plan a few weeks ago. That will be project number 3 that I work on sometimes.   I am getting old, I have got to step it up some.

Beautiful job Larry!  The craftsmanship is impeccable and I really like the choices of wood for each of the parts.

fantastic job

[rdatelle]

You did an out standing job on that. I don't think I could do anything like that. Just awesome.

[preprius]

wow, are there 3 layers of spokes?

Is each spoke is a separate piece?

5 rims and tires. I am totally impressed.

I love the T top to show the interior.

So it is truely a 1929 woody.

 

Great job.

Well done! As far as I can see, you spent a lot of time on this project, but in the end it was worth it.

[Denny Knappen]

The detail to this piece is something special.  Very well done.

That is amazing. A TRUE work of ART. You should enter that in a county fair. It'd take best of show for sure.

Thanks for all the kind comments.  It was an enjoyable but challenging project.  My dad and I rebuilt a 1929 Model A when I was in high school.  It was a great learning experience .
