Being late as usual, I noted a couple of non-standard items on this beauty. First is the 'Rising Quail' radiator cap, a very popular accessory, because the wonderful Model A had such fabulous initial acceleration from a stop. There is really no problem keeping up with modern traffic in a Model A, up to around sixty mph. Hence the hunters and farmers/ranchers among us will appreciate the comparison to a quail that has been flushed. The second is the Klaxon horn, which was not OE, I don't think. But they sure are fun to sound! Great photo of a really fun car! (Oh, nut-jobs like me notice Henry Ford's penchant for naming the two-door Model A's "Tudors," and the four door versions "Fordors." The guy was a serious self-promoter.)
