What year Model A? Not sure, I think it was a ‘30, but it might have been a ‘29.
What body style? Sedan. Dad had a roadster when he got married, but they needed more passenger room when the family size increased.
It had no heater, but the 5 miles to town was doable. I do not remember any 20 below days, so we must have had a siege of global warming in the mid 50s. Didn’t do any engine work, but Dad had ridge reamed it and installed oversized pistons sometime before I drove it. The odometer quit somewhere a little over 98,000. Dad broke an axle about a half mile from home on the mud roads shortly after the war. The replacement came in the mail.
I did not do any engine work, but replaced the roof.
A dream to drive and a symphony to the senses. The muffler sounds like a flute, the hiss of the carb, the complex sound as the gears mesh, the smell of gasoline and oil, and road ahead over the hood and nickel plated headlights.
My dad bought it before I was born and I inherited it in 2007. An engine rebuild might help the ethanol issue.
