The truck just left. After 42 years we sold our Sport Coupe on Hemmings in just three days. I got my first Model A in 1962. It’s been a long ride. Many years of family fun. Everything has a time. It was that time. Hopefully going to a great new home. Anyone who thinks there is not a...

This Saturday, Mystic Seaport, Mystic, Connecticut. Right off route 95. Great place to visit and also a good car show. Enjoy.

Back in 1981 when we were doing over our 1929 Sport Coupe we had it under coated. The undercoating has really held up. No rust at all on frame or under fenders. Fenders, and running boards were coated off the car. Has anyone else done this. Also, what comments do you have on it having been...

What and why? I have for many years wondered why some Model A owners feel the call to add all kinds of things to their cars. I’m a stock from the factory guy. No jewelry or speed parts. Honest question. What do you guys like to see and why? I don’t think there is a right or wrong answer...

You know, even after 60 years of driving these things, it still puts a smile on my face to go out for a drive. My wife heard the Model A start up and came running out to go along. I can’t take our grandson out for his annual summer runs, he lives in Atlanta and because of the virus isn’t...

I have always used tap water in our cars with rust inhibitor. Last year we tried distilled water with rust inhibitor. When I drained it out last fall the water was really rust colored. In past years, with tap water and inhibitor, color of water would be milky white. What are you thoughts on...

Bert’s Model A Center. The Place to “GO”. Last week I was placing a small order with Steve Becker at Bert’s. I don’t know why I started out by asking Steve if there could be a chance he had an original passenger side lower landau bracket for a 1929 Sport Coupe. He said, let me check and I...

Weather will be GREAT! 9am-2pm. Bee and Thistle Inn Old Lyme, Connecticut Exit 70 off route 95. Great little show.

Our 1929 Sport Coupe has a firewall date of June 18, 1929. That’s today. I know it doesn’t mean that was the date of the cars assembly, but for me it’s close enough. Happy birthday to all the 6/18/29 cars out there. Our engines approval date is 6/15/29. So there close. Numbers matching...

I am in need of one orginal landau lower inside bracket for our 1929 Sport Coupe. Must be NOS or original used. Need HELP please! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I would like to get car done, it’s only been 40 years.

I have only been a member of this forum since March of last year, but during this time I have read many good questions being asked on our cars cooling system. After 60 years of being involved with Model A Ford’s, I have accumulated a lot of information. I would recommend anyone who has an...

Finally a nice day here in Connecticut along Long Island Sound. After a six month rest our 29 started right up. Took her for a nice ride. Can’t wait for our grandson to visit. Anyone else getting theirs out after a long winters sleep? Enjoy.

Just returned from show. Great turnout T's and A's. Beautiful day. Enjoy.

After reading a tread yesterday I took off both rear wheels on our 29 to check nut tightness. Both were loose, retorqued to 100. My point. Don't assume, as I did, they are OK. I had a flat left rear two years ago. Took tire off to fix and checked nut at that time. It was OK. I was fat and...
