The car was recommended to me by DaWizard. It's close to me, close enough to what I was looking for. The color isn't original, but that isn't a turn off for me. At least it isn't some stupid color that totally detracts from the car. Nice, original style interior, a few upgrades like 12 volt and turn signals. Nice driver. I'm gonna have fun IMG_0314.JPGOriginally posted by Mitch View Post

Hi Carl,
In reading and seriously concentrating on your comment, "Waiting to hear from the seller, so I can pick it up. I've been pacing the floor for a week!!!!" ..... maybe grab a chair and try sitting ..... he might call after five minutes!
Hope this helps.Comment

Hi Carl,
Last resort ...... get your checkbook ready!
Like with a football game, the moon is in it's Last Quarter, the Waning Crescent today is at 26%, down from 35% yesterday and will approach 0% as we will approach a New Moon on January 17, 2018.
Don't tell this Model A seller about the current January 2018 moon phases ...... have patience and let the moon do it's job ........ improper interpretation the moon's function has been known to create lunatics.
Hope these moon phases can help.Comment

Introduce her slowly to your wife. I swear for the first year mine never acted up unless my wife was in it. I also found out if she is constantly acting up take her to a hot rod show and say this could be you... it is amazing how much better she runs on the way home. Congrats and enjoy. Best hobby ever!

Hi Carl,
Per no.17 above, the Moon's strong diminishing Waning Crescent prior to the 17th was definitely in your favor ... (LOL) ... best of luck for you and your wife with your New Fountain of Youth.Comment

We had 11 cars in Anchorage and 5 in Fairbanks that showed up as a group for IMAFD Celebrations.
The Anchorage group assembled at the Sears Mall for a brief 1 hour car show, followed by a tour of downtown. It was amazing to see all the cameras come out of nowhere to take our pictures as we drove down the streets. Then we headed out to Pt. Woronzof for a picture shoot, to City Diner for...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

Hello all!
We are new to the Model A life but wanted your feedback on a couple of things we're thinking about doing/upgrading to Abbie.
We understand and acknowledge the value of originality in these and we are by no means trying to turn this into a hot rod or modern day car. However, I do want to consider doing some things that could add value, without ruining the integrity....11-30-2021, 12:09 AM -
Do any of you know just what assembly plant supplied Alaska with the Model A/AA's during 1928 thru 1931? Anyone?
Has anyone done any research on that aspect of Model A/AA Ford production?
(Looks like it was a great tour to McCarthy)!
Thanks.

Since I got my power brake booster to work correctly, I am now looking into adding a front drum-to disc conversion in the future. The car currently has 14" wheels, and since there are no 14" wheel disc brake conversions for this car, I am going to change to 15" as an upgrade. I would like to go to 5-spoke chrome wheels. As I looked into them, I soon realized that there are quite a number...07-26-2020, 02:19 PM -
