    speedster

    Cool. Sold my T speedster not too long ago. Was a gas to drive but impractical for me. Is The Race of Gentlemen in your future?:)

    Buffing out orange peel.

    I knew a Guy who paid EXTRA, to get the "modern" ORANGE PEEL look on a Caddy! Bill Observer I don't understand the crappy paint jobs modern cars receive. You'd think for the price of a new car it would at least have a good paint job.:confused:

    New member looking for advise, please

    True. Just last week saw a frame and running drivetrain for sale 2 hrs. away and a complete restored and running engine, with clutch and pedals, an hour away. I might call on the engine, asking 2200. Have enough patience and a good deal will come around.:)

    Buffing out orange peel.

    Buffing will not remove orange peel, it should be color sanded first to knock down the high spots (orange peel) then buffed. The buffing pad follows the contour of the paint so all one ends up with is shiny orange peel......that's how it has worked for me. I know it's a lot of work but worth...

    OT: It's the simple things that often bring a smile to our face....

    Neat video. We still have the old buzz saw, and belt, that was mounted on the front of our IH A tractor. Dad and I cut many hedge posts into firewood. The tractor is long gone and have never missed it, surprised I made it through my teen years having used that thing for work.

    My what hearty souls . . . .

    Looks to be a dusting of snow here in SE Ks. Could use a good freeze, the pastures are slop and cattle miserable. Upon second look, it's all sleet and still coming down.

    Not much demand for Model As at any price or is it antique cars in general?

    As to the spirit of the thread, demand is relative to price(or vise versa) and both are subject to disposable income. To a certain degree. I need a grant to study how the value of a Model A is a reflection of the overall economy.

    Not much demand for Model As at any price or is it antique cars in general?

    I'll second your opinion. My wife and I live in the country, have more than enough money, but spend most of our hours working. Our A coupe and T speedster seldom see the road when compared to our '66 F85 and '64 Comet. Traffic today is unforgiving and it takes too long to go anywhere. The...

    I'd second that. Our lift has them over head and a joy to use.

    Prices of model A's

    I checked some of the bigger cities CL sites here in fly over country and have found very few if any stock Model A's for sale, just hot rod/hot rod projects. Think it goes in cycles.

    I maybe going to do something I never thought I would do

    Like others I too have sold cars I wish I hadn't. Passions change over time so if you sell the car don't be surprised if ten years down the road your looking for another A. Happened with me except with Oldsmobile. OBTW, I've been farming all my life. My brother and I handle over 3000 acres...
