Some on here may remember me. I bought my car with the intention of proving the point that the Model A was built to be driven daily. I put some time getting it sorted out, sold my daily, so I would be committed to driving it every day. That was 14 months ago and over 10,000 miles. I am in south...

Ditto to the all black Ford. Great find, and a reminder to us all, they are still out there. Best of luck to the new caretaker of that beautiful car.

I do love a Pickup but I agree the price seems a bit high. And I also agree the term survivor is mighty subjective, and in this case I don't think it applies.

Here's a thought. At some point and time, everyone here was a newbie. But it looks like you have the start of a wonderful project. And as all have said, have fun, take your time, and the outcome will be something you and yours can be proud of.

Curious also as to what points were deducted for. Car looks great, and I am sure will take many more awards in the future. Enjoy.

Hope you have better luck with them then a friend of mine who put them on his 29. The car rode worse, and he pulled them off the next day. Could have been just a bad set, but they were new.

Beautiful car, and now go out and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

I would agree with getting it running, and maybe the brakes checked. If what you said about the restore was done properly, then draining and flushing all fluids, refill and freshen up battery and give it a whirl. It might surprise you as to how well these cars respond with just a little TLC...

Agree with above, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Mice chew through wood, thats what they do. So unless you replaced all your wood with metal, and welded all the seams, you can get mice. And yes, this I know from experience.

What a great video, thanks for sharing.

Great photos, and I wouldn't be to concerned about the occasional odd photo. Most on here just have a good time looking at photos from days gone by and enjoying and comparing the different autos, what ever they may be.

Looks and sounds great. Congrats and enjoy the fruits of your labor. More pics would be nice, or a longer vid. Gotta love that patina.

Congrats on your milestone, looking forward to your pics. Enjoy.

Agree with above. Drop the pan, check for any material in pan, then check rods and mains. Good luck and let us know what you find.
