New guy here!

He is 35 and graduated :)

I think he wants to go back and check out the cheerleaders! :D

If I had a Model A in high school it would probably look exactly the same. When I was a senior in high school I bought a nice original 1960 350 Parilla and painted it candy apple green and silver. It was beautiful, but a couple years later I regretted not leaving the original paint on it. These days I like to keep my machines as original as possible, or at least as original as practical.

If I lived in the hot south I'd probably want air conditioning in my Model A, even if it was just a small portable unit and run by Honda generator hanging on the rear. :)
 
Ted,
I'm only "35"--Going on 81!
Beautiful car, makes me sad, that I had to sell my BLACK, '30 Coupe, Minerva. But, Vermin, my '29 Coupe awaits me in the Carriage House.

Bill, Alway wonder why you didn't name your latest car "Vermina". That way you would use all the same letters as "Minerva"... :p:p

Ted, besides the wheels, color and headlights your car looks pretty stock. Your Club shouldn't give you any static over those items. Nice car.

What part of the country do you hang your hat?

Thanks everybody for the well wishes! Great to know there's so many like-minded people around here.

Yes, I did graduate! I don't think you can get in the military without graduating...

We just passed thru that way last week coming home from Oregon. Spent the night in Elk Grove. I can't make that trip in one day anymore, ~800 miles. :p:p
 
Beautiful car, enjoy, and welcome to the Barn. As far as paint and juice brakes, it is your car, and looks to be well done, no harm, no foul.
 
Your A looks good to me. Have fun with it.....mine is the wrong colors also, with some modern stuff on it.....I'm the only one around here with As so nobody knows the difference
