How to fix warped kick panels for a Ford Model A 

They look like new.👌 I use a small screwdriver with the bit end ground down to a rounded ( not sharp) end, to align screw holes. Nice job Tina.👍

Model T your kill’n it! Great job and what a way to call it a day with a scenic drive in a Model A.

This video is so timely! I have just taken off the drivers side kick panel and was wondering how to fix it. Now i know! Thanks for sharing and take care you two!

You're gettin Gandolf lookin nice, those side panels really looks good, snazzes the old timer up. Good tip for that type of material, it would apply to any type of similar material. Nice views on the ride, Paul cracked me up with the parking grin, funny. Thanks Model T, hope you all have a good week, god bless.

Good tip! Most people in the past would have purchased new ones? It is great to reuse what you have!

Tina, love your videos which are very well done and informative!!!🫶

Yup......Get a bigger Rock!! You did good.

Great video. I have a panel or two to straighten in my 30 Tudor. So this video comes at the right time. Mine is actually a door panel. I have some of the cement walkway pieces to hold it down. They are 24"× 24" × 2" thick and flat and smooth in the top side so that should do the trick while drying.

What a lovely, warm hearted ride at the end, but the straightening of the kick panels, is a darn good tip and a way of doing! That sun we also have here in Curaçao. You both are just as I am here, taking out my wife for an ice cream in the model A. Tops Tina very again lovely footage and Paul as always with his 10 million dollar smile 😃. God bless my dear Model A friends!🙏👍🏼🇺🇸 I like so much when Paul says MADE IN THE USA, and that I am very positive about👌🏼👍🏼 America made items are simply the best!!!!! And that you can find back in all the vintage made items, automobiles, tools and so on!!!!!

Great job Model T...

Nice save and savings! Thank you as always for taking the time to teach us. LOL'd at "Oh, we're gonna park". God bless, have a great week ~ Chuck

Nice work Model t

Turned out great.

Tina, so simple- water helped mis-formed the panels and a smart lady and water brought them back to be close the original shape. Looking good! Thanks for the tip. See ya down a country road Steve

model T you do great work !!!

Paul your the man!

Great job. Too bad no drive-ins anymore.

You know you two have a good racket going. Paul with the heavy stuff/subjects, and the general. You with the lighter stuff like this and communication between the two of yous make for a complete Model A “voice”. History, contemporary and mechanical is spilled from both of yous. I don’t have a Model A but my grandfather did, and my love of the Ford History has me here in all respects. Much love you guys, kudos on the life you have. 💯

I thinking that it would be a nice idea to put a plastic backing on those panels to protect them from water intrusion. Even trash bags could work. Gandolf is definitely a sorted out car; just needs a new windshield and some paint on the fenders and it will be awesome.

Good job!! Those panels came out pretty good!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Never knew you could do that thanks for another great video Going to try it on my model A And my can I mention my corvair

Aw, you two love birds!

White vinegar is better for mold also removes rust, rinse after using for rust.🙏 Long rides in a model A should always include ice cream, black walnut if possible.

looks good .

I like to paint the back of the cardboard panels with Rustoleum for protection cause I don't think I could pick up a rock that big.

Did you know the front seat of the Model A is known as an SOB seat (actaully any bench type vehicle front seat). That is the 'Slide Over Baby' seat. If you on a date and it is going well the driver makes lots of hard Right turns. If the date isn't going so well you make lots of left turns. Now you know about the SOB seat. Not what you thought.

The wood materiel is called Masonite, It comes in 4X8 sheets

Muy bueno!!

Awesomeness 👍

I think Paul was changing out the winter air for summer air in the tires.

is there a resource where we can get the patterns for the kick panel shapes? our car never had any (since we've owned it) and I'd like to make my own. Any ideas for how to get the patterns?

Greed is good! Oops! I mean Gravity is good! The Ferengi in me popped out.

You DO know not to mix and Bleach and (Amonnia Sp?) Right??
