Ford Model A Social Media Q&A #12 | Facebook, Instagram, YouTube 

Great video.

Always a pleasure watching you. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

Great episode!

Love the videos. An extra bonus to see you on tv! Much success to you. Here’s to many more!

Thanks guys for the video! I appreciate it.

The E.F. Johnson Viking 6N2 Thunderbolt caught my eye. Man, that's more rare than a Model A or T!!

I thought the upholstery guy went above and beyond - all that overnight! Amazing

Love you guys, you’re fun to watch and very informative!!!

A few points: I watched the episode rebuilding the model A because Paul was on the show. That was the first time I'd seen that show. Secondly, and in no order of importance, you two have to be the luckiest couple on the face of the planet. I enjoy so much watching your videos and I'm so captivated how it looks that you both found the other person who completes you or compliments you so well or each of you have married your best friend. I'm almost 50 and don't think I've ever found a woman who accentuates so well and I don't even think that's a good enough word to describe it. - Blessed. Lastly, although the model A is my favorite vehicle, just over 6 ft tall and large stature person, I recently found my second favorite vehicle a '70s F-series with 300ci straight six, one barrel carburetor, manual transmission rear wheel drive, and no a/c or so many other things. People who know me don't understand why I'm deengineering and removing non-essential things. Until I lose weight this vehicle is my goal to be a larger Model A. I'm changing the bed and plan to change/copy the model A slender nose front end. If I can keep losing weight, I'm getting a Model A though. I love or am fascinated by the mechanical simplicity in a world of computer-controlled transportation

Tina, I need to build Paul a shop vac which is safe to use vacuuming up gasoline or any flammable material. It’s a typical project for any beginning aircraft mechanic. Many times we are making sheet metal repairs inside aircraft structures where there could possibly be a potentially explosive atmosphere. (A reason we use only air powered drills etc.) At job completion, the work area must be thoroughly vacuumed, no drilling chips, no debris. An air powered vacuum cleaner is simple to build thanks to Mr Bernoulli and his laws. I assume Daryl cleans up gasoline spills with a match, burning them off. Open the garage door to let the smoke escape for safety’s sake, of course. Don’t want to be breathen no toxic fumes.

thumbs up.

Great content and we loved the Motor-trend show too, looked to be loads of fun. Next time I see Paul I’ll have to blurt out this “this man hates sprinkles and he stood in Henry Ford’s office” 😂. We watched with smiling faces. Thanks for the video friend.

Oh, I can't resist! You can tune a radio, but you can't tune a 🐠 fish!!

Looking forward to buying my first Model A. I just moved near Applegate, CA and will start looking for one this summer.

I fixed all my family's 👪 tube radios and TV'S when I was a kid and owned a few but unfortunately all were lost after my divorce 😢. Stay warm guys, Mike

News about the car transporting. I have had 3 cars transported and I found all 3 companies in the Hemming's Monthly magazine. It you go to Hemming's, and search for "transportation you will find between 25-30 advertisements. In some ads the company will talk about their specialities, {sports cars, classic cars, etc.}. Then a phone call or filling out a form with offer you a time line's, distance & costs and if you want Open & Enclosed. One note, it is BEST to use a transportation company that keeps your car in the truck. Some do and some don't. Best of luck.

I faithfully watched Derek’s show and Paul’s video! I’m very proud of Paul. He is a highly respected Model A aficionado! The episodes were great ! We are proud of Paul on his TV debut! Congratulations!

Wat?!? You should have told me I could take anything that’s not registered!! 😂😂❤

Goog 'le!! Haha!

Great episode today. Thank you

I love your honesty and straightforward information and personalities

I have a sign in my garage that says “ My Garage, My Rules”

Great info! Thanks.

Hi Paul & Tina , great show love you folks- where can I find a local engine builder in our area syd

great video, thanks!

Paul. Funny story. When I bought my A and had to get it shipped. I googled it and requested a quote. I received texts and calls for about a week. Literally bout 50 plus. I ended up borrowing a trailer. It was pretty cool cuz I got a lot of waves in rest areas, gas stations and on the road. Pretty fun. Both of you take care.

So the camera focused on the headlamp in the foreground instead of you guys...and I thought it was just my watery eyes 👀!

I’ve come across A wheel hubs where someone at some time has pushed the wheel studs out, resulting in over sizing the holes in the hub. Their solution was to weld the new studs in. Bad, Really bad. Not something which one wants to discover on an A which they may have recently purchased.

I need to bow out. Otherwise I'm going to aggravate everyone else!

I'm not requesting a refund, but I won't buy another shirt until I see a new vendor. Thanks for letting us know. My shirt has more use/abuse/stains/dog sweat than normal, but the decal is breaking down.

Well, you guys have produced another fine video for us Model A enthusiasts! Thanks for answering more questions for us. Hey Paul! kinda hard to tell, but is that a Johnson Viking 6-N-2 in the background-sitting on the shelf? Don't know why my eye was drawn to that. LOL!! Cheers and 73 to you both! de Benton w4jba

Paul you’re going to spray the black parts with a rattle can?!? As for oil leaks… if it don’t leak, it’s not real 🤙🏽💕

Aircraft have a list of speeds associated with that particular aircraft. These are know as 'V' speeds. Stall speeds, cruise, climb, etc. The 'never exceed ' is Vne. I guess Model A Vne is below 70 mph!!

Oh, Paul. Careful with the Gas, look what happened to Jay Leno…I hope he’ll recover just as good as new. Thanks to both of you, and I’ll see Ray Gabledon at one of our Albuquerque Meetings. He’s kinda having troubles finding sponsors, first they agree. Then their not there… We’ll see how it turns out, though…Wish us luck! See, you.

Try bunker branding out of Texas. They cater to youtubers

Yeah, sounds like Sean Winograd is the guy to turn to in that situation. Awesome, you got Gandolf driving, that's great! The radius ball issue is interesting, does heavy use or abuse contribute to the wear, like hard shifting or rough road conditions? Lots of good questions and great answers, loved it. Thanks Model T and Paul, have a great day!

Since the Model A's fender and headlight were close to the camera, the camera focused on it instead of on you. Paul and Tina were slightly out of focus the whole time, but that didn't detract from the fun of the video. Good job, guys.

I think the antique radios are fascinating. Any chance Paul might do a video on rebuilding one?

No sprinkles? How plain!

Model T where's your hat?????? Lol😊

You heard it hear first, folks! The Model A will last 500,000 miles! Now I Really want one! Haha 😆

Hey Paul In addition to my 30 Model A I also have a 39 Packard , could you give me link to where I can get the one grit sanding block ha ha ha it really looked like worked the 39 could use it

Note: I inquired with Jeff at Brattons about rebuilding a steering box. They replied that they no longer offer that service any longer. So I opted to rebuild a 2 tooth I got at the swap meet at Gilmore.

What happened to the motor that you had to pull out?

stay worm

This video is exactly why I watch RU-vid and not TV. I like real people like Paul & Dereck not actors.

Sucking up on vice grip garage are you

Too bad really historical locations cannot all be saved.

Like I've said in the past,we watch mainly because of your honesty.Thank you.

Model T how is Paul kidney stones doing?

A good reason for metal buckets 🪣 👌 love the show. Good luck, Mike
