1928 Ford Model A - Dash Wiring 

the Model A is the perfect first time collectors car, fun to drive, parts available, not too expensive. Just great cars.

Yes, I'd like to see more of this project.

looking forward to another Ford Model A video 👍

It now makes sense to me why there is more than one wiring harness as you mentioned they can have different bodies. I will admit that's not something I had thought about. The original wires were likely made from vulcanised rubber which can break down over time but some may have been replaced before. I like that coil tool, you can't be in any doubt using that. She is coming along well and I look forward to the next step. Thanks Steve.👍👍

The coil is called an auto-transformer. It has 3 terminals, +, - and high voltage output. On a negative ground system, ignition + terminal to output terminal has the lowest resistance. Terminal - to output terminal has the highest resistance. A simple ohmmeter can be used to determine which terminal is + and - .

Let's keep going on this one.

More Model A repairs please

Good video and looking forward to the next !

Love how this is progressing.

great to see the availability of anything you need regarding replacement parts

With all the more modern (comparatively) cars you work on, it's amazing to see how rudimentary, but functional these old cars really are!

Thank you, keep them coming!

Yes for sure

Good progress, looking forward to the next installment.

I would definitely love to see more content on this car. Love model As in their simplicity

NIce job! I get most of my Model A parts from Arizona Model A in Chandler, AZ. Great people to work with and VERY knowledgable.

Greatest respect for your videos, super informative. Every time I end up hoping they were longer! Advice from an old electrician, use a steel fish-tape to help feed those tough reaches of the electrical harness. Would love to see you a 60’s Austin Healey.🏎🛸

First year Model A too! They’re positive ground.

Keep going on the Model A. Enjoying the work.

WOW , Cars were so basic back in the day !! Great Video Steve !

great stuff thanks

cool series, for today's and tomorrow's

More, please. Thanks

Nice Video!....Thanks

There is a chap with a Model A RU-vid Channel called Paul Shinn. He is a great bloke and can help with all sorts of Model A stuff and tips. I'm sure if you need any help he would be very helpful. Take Care

It must be nice to be able to order parts for such an old car!

Thanks!

I'm really surprised about how the car is able to run w/o the proper coil polarity; and love the polarity tester.

I’m amazed you can still get parts for these cars. I find it hard to get parts for my late 90s Honda Blackbird and the ones that are available are getting expensive.

Coils is a good subject . Plenty of wrong coils fitted and right coils fitted wrong

Would you consider a video outlining timing the engine? It's unbelievable what a difference it makes when it's really dialed in - fun to drive when it's right. They're very peppy little cars.

Hola muy Buenos sus videos.yo tengo que hacer todala intalacion completa de una Ford A 1928 no se mucho mas bien poco.quisiera saver todo lo necessario de comprar y si fuera posible un video o manual donde poder apprendere.aprender y saver grazie gracias

Love to see this one progressing, have you gotten any farther with the 1934 Chevrolet?

The episodes on this car seem to be coming in a strange order; it's been on the road in one.

First! Cheers from Linz, Austria! 😀

You can test coil polarity with a pencil. GOOGLE it.

Why not paint the dash while everything is apart.

Eah?

Amazing you can just order up brand new parts for a 95 yr old car.
