    I'm struggling to find anyone restoring Model A ford cars (found 2 truck restorations) or an owners club.
    Lots of foreign information, but I am looking for someone in Ireland if at all possible.
    Any assistance appreciated.

    No Model A owners club in Ireland that I am aware of. There are quite a few Model A owners who are in the Model T club who could point you in the right direction as said above. There is a Model A club in the UK which should be helpful either.

    I dont own one yet.
    Still researching it.
    I have a full restored Mk1 Escort estate and am working on an RS2000.
    Next in the queue is an old car.
    I like the look of Tudor and Fordor Model A's.
    I also like the early 50's "shoebox" Mercury's and Fords.
