Jack will be missed! When I first found my Model A Coupe in a barn, I contacted Jack to give me advise on what all I needed to do to get it running. He was very helpful. Jack even talked me out of putting hydraulic brakes on my car and stick with originals, which I am gratiful for. Thanks Jack...

I own a 1930 Coupe that was a barn find. My suggestion to you is before you buy, see if the seller has any photos of what had been done to the car in the past. Mine had a nice paint on it with some cracking and pealing, but I wanted to know what condition the body was in so I had it taken down...

Robbie, I was in your shoes awhile back. I bought a true barn find that needed everything. I should have bought one already running, but I had the funds and I knew up front that I would be paying more than the car would be worth when I was done. I even thought about making my car a hot rod, but...

Pdgx, where can you get the CarCapsule and what is the price to get one? Thanks Hugh

Your best bet is ask your friend who has inside storage to keep it for you. Anything kept outside will draw rats and other insects and make a disaster of your nice car. Hugh

JoeMarine, from an old retired Navy man, I would recommend a Berg Radiator. I was given the same advice when I had a overheating problem with my 1930 Model A Coupe. A Bergs Radiator has never let me down and I highly recomend one if you are in the budget for it. Take care shipmate. Hugh

I found body panels held on only with bondo no welding.

Looks like a great project. Hugh

I have a 1930 Model A Coupe and I am 6ft tall with size 13 shoes. I cut the package tray back and that gave me about 3 to 4 inches more leg room. You would be surprised what a few extra inches will do for you. I did not do anything but move the seat back that 3-4 inches. Reducing the size of the...

Dougs, I bought my Bergs radiator by calling by phone and ordering that way. Sorry don't remember the phone number. Hugh

I to bought the clear Gano filter. It has collected some small particles from the engine before it reached my new radiator. Well worth the money.

Real good score! Looking forward to see what you do to it.

Happy birthday hope you have many more! Hugh

Good luck Jim you have my vote!

If you go to Mafca.com they do sell a dvd on installing Model A Top material. Hugh

Jim you have my vote. Getting ready to send it in with renewal.

Bob when I brought my Model A Coupe from Texas to Florida I used an open UHaul trailer also. What I did was tape cardboard on the front window, headlights and grill area. Believe me on the freeway rocks do fly and it will make cleaning the bugs off it alot easier. My car arrived without any...

I think everyone feels a different way. I am restoring my 1930 Model A but I plan to drive it as much as I can weather allowing. You will find guys that they are serious about showing there car at shows only and I think that is ok also. To each and everyone, do what makes you happy. The fact is...

Now that is a ex-Navy man talking, Olongapo.
