Model A Ford Restoration Guildelines & Judging Standards: Revision 5
CELEBRATING THE 100th ANNIVERSARY OF THE MODEL A FORD
Revision 5 sets a new benchmark. Developed over five years by the Judging Standards Committees of MARC & MAFCA, this 590‑page volume features expert‑verified details, extensive color images, and authoritative research drawn directly from the Ford Archive. Every section was carefully reviewed to ensure accuracy, and two exclusive new supplements—the Town Car and Victoria—were added.
Whether you’re working on a restoration, preparing for judging, or browsing a swap meet to replace a part, this book helps you quickly identify what fits, what’s correct, and what to pass on—saving time, money, and guesswork.
It’s the reference to rely on when the details matter!
