Oh nice, is that the same car that you and your dad are building now? I remember it all torn up and with a nice powerplant going in it, unless this is old footage.

Nice vid though, I'm surprised it ran considering how that fuel looks. Nice song too, modest mouse is sweet.

My late-grandfather spent 13 years restoring a 28 Model A 2-door to mint. All original paint materials, Amish sewn interior... He even hand hammered dents out of the fenders.

Nice car, 66jamestang! They turn as many or more heads than Mustangs do.

my dad has a 28 Model A that he wont part with. He has a 68 firebird (IIRC)convertible he wont let me have either. Good looking project. I want to locate a Model A pickup to restore after my mustang is done.

Thanks guys, actually 4reboy this is a car I picked up in September my dads car the one the power plant is going in is a 39 Ford It is a bad car...


I took the footage of the model A today, I know it looks rough but the metal is actually in excellent shape... the wood on the other hand is shredded

Well to be completely honest I am not sure what is gonna be the end result... right now I just wanted to get it running put some kind of floor board in and rewire the car so i can cruise on at 25mph. I also need to do something about the wood so it does not shake apart, but who knows...
