Purchased my firston in 1971 and have purchased 5 since then. The four I have now Ive owned from 12 to 7 years.
 
I have owned my 1930 rpu since 1985 after buying a house, son, college, finally got back to it and finished it in 2013.. I also have a 1930 coupe, built it the mid 1970's sold it in 1988 and was able to buy it back in 2012 Sorry it is a street rod but me and my dad built it together and had to have it back!!!!!!
 
31 S/W Town Sedan since 1986 , 28 Special Coupe since 1993. Both still sitting in the garage. No space and not enough time work on them. The pics of them in my album.
 
Just amazed at those of you that have had the you Model A for decades and some a half century -- as for me just 8 months.. I waited about 40 years for mine.

Huckster 1951 (chassis was part of a 1929 CCPU in those days). Got pieces of the PU from a cousin which I further ruined in 1951-cut off top of cab, took off fenders, etc. Rebuilt into the huckster in 2009. 1929 STD Coupe purchased in 2010.

BTW the reason it took so long to build the huckster from the pile of "junk" was that we had to raise 11 kids and run a business for 20 years.
 
Have had a Model A under belt since about 1971, owned ours until 1991, became caretaker of Pop's cars, now own one of his since both parents are now gone...............
 
I bought my first Ford Model A ( a Nov. 1927 TuDoor Sedan ) in 1964. Sold it a year later and bought my present car in 1965, a December 1928 Phaeton. So I guess that is about 50 years ago. Ouch ! My other Model A ( late '31 Dlx Coupe) I bought about three years ago, to replace my '30 Standard Coupe, which I drove for about 35 years.
