I don't know what year the process was invented, but I know the 1927 Model A had a chrome, spring steel bumper, and radiator cover.

If I remember correctly the first Model A came out late in 1927. Mine is a few months later. Lots of chrome. Not meant to hijack but can’t resist showing the reality of Edgar’s observation. Cheers Jack

Car guys have nothing on the owner of this 1878 Parker. When Tom Poss and I were barely out of grade school, he was driving an outstanding 1934 Ford. I saw the '34 on a visit to his family's Maryland garage and was suitably impressed. He knows a little about cars. Maybe with a little bit of push, he will tell us about the old girl.
