Thoughts? What year? Is it a Ford Model A Slant Windshield? It looks like their car had wood spokes, not wire spokes like the second photo. I cannot find the last year Ford used wood spokes on the A.
What do you think? They were farmers in Canada and Idaho, so I'm surprised to see them with such a new car.

I have photos of my grandfather’s 1930s vehicles. Love those vintage pictures.

It’s a Dodge or similar make. Look at the beltline on the side, not a Model A. Model A”s never had wood wheels

They look grim, like they knew the Depression was just around the corner.

The guy in the back, second from the right, with the open collar. Looks like trouble. I’m probably a direct descendant of him.

Agree with the posts that this is not a Model A Ford. The wheels appear to be wooden. Wood was not used on any Model A wheel style. Wheel hubs on Model A Ford’s are pretty distinctive. Early 1928 versions so called AR had a very small hub and narrow brake drums. The brakes proved inadequate so a wider from drum and bigger hub in late 1928 - 1929. The hub changed again in 1930 to flatter hub and so called airplane wheels without the metal spokes were available for 1931-32 Model As

After reading through this thread, just want to say Freeper’s knowledge of cars always amazes me. Wish we had our own FR Car Club sometimes.

Ford never used wood spoke wheels on the Model A. If I remember correctly, Ford stopped using wood spoke wheels in 26-27, the last years the Model T was built.
