Ford made more incremental changes to differ this model from the two previous model years. In 1930-31, headlights were stainless steel and more rounded in the back. Radiators and shells were taller and made of stainless steel and 1930-31 cars had a seamless firewall. No dates are commonly found stamped on the firewall. Wheels on 1928-29 vehicles were 21andPrime; with 4.50 tires and used smaller hub caps than the 1930-31 cars, which used 19andPrime; wheels and 4.75 tires. Since the wheels would fit on any year, wheel size alone wonandrsquo;t determine the year of the car.
