Have it, love it. DM really stepped up to the plate when they narrowed the spokes and made them even more realistic.

@bob-jackman It’s hard to pick a favorite from Danbury’s all-inclusive Ford A series. If I had to choose it would probably be the Good Humor truck for its fun factor and the incredible detail. The coupe and the touring are gorgeous, and there’s no way I could part with beautiful little pickemup, so I could very well change my mind tomorrow! Fantastic photos John, thanks for sharing. Let’s get some input on everyone’s favorite A.

@kevins hey Kevin I have the Good Humor truck on its way! Been after one for a while. I'm a huge Model A fan too. I have 10 of them including the Good Humor truck. I'd say the woody wagon would be my favorite, just. Great series John, thanks.
