A look inside the Ford Model A Chassis
At the National Automotive and Truck Museum in Auburn, Indiana, a Model A chassis is displayed with cutaways of nearly every component. Evident from the sign in front of the chassis, this once lived at the MAFFI Museum at the Gilroy in Hickory Corners, Michigan.
The chassis was donated by Ed Dathe of Unionville, Indiana
The components of this chassis indicate it is a 1930. What month? Difficult to assess, since some parts are early 1930 and some mid 1930 - like most Model As today!
