Model A Fenders
Rare early 1928 right rear narrow bottom Model A fender, commonly known as a Beaver Tail. My Model A judging standards book (possibly outdated) says that these rear fenders were only made for coupes and roadsters. But this is a sedan rear fender with traces of the original black paint still on it. It will need a complete restoration but an original wide bottom rear fender is included for the price. Shipping not included.

Early 1928 Roadster
This is a quite early 1928 roadster; motor number of A20XXX making it a February 1928 manufacture car which would be termed by most to be an “AR.” It is a presentable and drivable early Model A. It has many of the earmarks of the early Model As such as: Red steering wheel, left hand emergency brake with early brake system, “Pop out” ignition switch with “banana” ignition assembly, Power house generator, square starter switch, open bumpers, “Duck tail” rear fenders, drum tail light, early radiator shell with the “weaved” lacing, and two blade fan with shroud, centrifugal advance in the distributor therefore advancing to drive and retarding to start are not necessary.. It has a nice appearing rumble seat. I think I have the side curtains but might be wrong; I have the wind wings, they are not currently on the car but will be included. This is not a trailer queen, rather a fun and very presentable driver nearly 100 years old.
This early car needs a new home and deserves to be preserved.

Treasurer
As a member of MARC’s Missouri Valley region I have served as President as well as holding various other offices. Married to my wife Pam for 33 years, we have two children, twins Katie and Alex.
I have been active in the Model A hobby most of my life and would like to share my love A’s with others. My focus will be on the recruitment of young members to our hobby so that we can survive and thrive.
Some activities that I have done.
2005 National Membership Meet m St. Louis, Missouri – Co Chairman
2018 National Meet in Branson, Missouri – Co-Chairman
2019 National Meet m Dearborn, Michigan – Co-Chairman
2017, 18,19, and 2021 Undercarriage Judge in Fine Point.
I believe Board members of MARC should be an advocate of all aspects of the Model A hobby and be supportive of activities that attract NEW young members and retain existing ones. Focusing on Younger members will ensure that our hobby will survive and thrive.
Retired from a career in management and finance. I presently own a Closed Cab Pickup, as well as a 160-A that I am restoring for Fine Point as well as a 60-C and 160-B for future projects.

Director of Regions
My fascination with Model A Fords began at an early age when I noticed a derelict 1930 model A four door sitting in a field in 1961. At $75 it was too much to contemplate.
In 1972 I bought my first one, a non running 1929 Tudor for $500. I was thrilled when I sold it for a $25 profit a few weeks later!
Since that time, Model A’s have more or less followed me home, probably owning more than 20 Model A’s at one time or another.
I have restored two A’s, a 29 roadster pick up, a 31 wide bed pick up, a 1926 Model T coupe and am currently in the process of restoring a 30 standard coupe. I also have several other A drivers and projects awaiting restoration.
My wife Becky and I joined MARC in 1987 and have attended many National meets and co-chaired the 2018 membership meeting in Granville Ohio. I have also had a number of articles printed in the Model A News over the years.
I have been fortunate to have held director positions in 3 regional clubs, the Scioto Region in Columbus, Ohio, the Niagara Frontier Region in Buffalo, NY (also a member) and currently holding that position in the Model A Drivers of East Central Ohio region since 2018.
Our regions motto is “Just Drive Them” and that is what we do!
