Your 2015 agenda???????????

31 Model A

Well-known member
Got one??? Any plans??? There was a time that I looked fwd to the New Year, plans were made to see and do new things, go places, meet new ladies but now at this age, the only thing I plan is to try and make it to another New Year and have fun along the way with whatever comes.

This year, I have Sarah to enjoy and I think it will be a very good year.

To all here, hope it's a good year for you too.
 
First order of things is to get the wood done for the delivery. Next will be to fix the frame. Body work soon to follow now that I have found a somewhat local body man to repair the rear panel and door. Beyond the delivery I still have a steep hill to climb with med bills.

Picked up a '31 town sedan in early Dec., been sitting in a garage since 1959, after I get the engine running and looking decent, and the brakes doing what they are supposed to, I plan on driving the car on or before March 20th, after that it's just body, paint, electric/wiring/lights and interior.
The interior will take the longest, have to hand make/shape some of the wood.
Should be a very, very good year for this 84 year old sleeping beauty.
 
Same goals as last year, get Dad's '31 Roadster running, the '12 running, make progress on the '29 Steelback and my '30 Roadster, try to understand automotive wiring. I'd like to hit a few things on my Bucket List, Pebble Beach and Bonneville Speed Week are still on the top. Bob
 
My New Years revolution is to improve my grammer and spelling . Have a phosphorous New Year.

Ditto for me on the grammer and spelling... I just tend to be in too much of a hurry... I should without question write better..

Looking forward to some travel this year. We plan on the Lighthouses & Lobster Tour and several regional meets. Hope to see many of you along the Model A highway this year.
 
Plan on finishing my tudor phaeton project (by june if a miracle happens). Also put my speedster motor together and put an overdrive in it. Then i also need to to get my coupe put back together once ron kelley gets done with that motor. Lots of things to get done with so little time to do them all.
 
finish the rebuild on my engine, my brother bored the cylinders ground the valves and we just finished new wrist pins bushings now that the holidays are done maybe we can get it back together and back in by February
 
winter 2015: Finish redoing the fenders for my 29 tudor.

Spring 2015: tune up with rebuilt original style distributor and road tested Zenith
rebuild the front end and get rid of a stupid steering "stabilizer" - Install Stipe shocks

Summer 2015: Enjoy the car and my Kayak

Fall 2015: Install a Mitchell Transmission.
 
My 2015 goals are to finish some of my far too many projects (maybe our 29 Phaeton), and to buy a house large enough to hold all of our antiques.
 
Build a 3 car garage that looks old timey.
Get my dads old truck back on the road
And finish paint/body and interior on my Tudor.
