New guy here!
Hey gang,
Figured I'd better go ahead and post in here! I received this car from my dad at 14 years old, on the condition that I help him restore it. To make a long story short, we finished on my 16th birthday, just in time to drive it to high school. My A is stock powered, with hydraulic brakes. Just figured I'd say hello and include a pic for you guys. Let me know what you think! Ted |

Re: New guy here!
Well, I joined in 2011 right after I got out of the military. Then life happened...and now here I am deployed as a civilian contractor for the military, and have time to look at stuff like this. I know my A isn't a stock color, but everything else is pretty much bone stock. I'm hoping the model A club in my area doesn't give me a hard time!

Re: New guy here!
Driving a Model A to High School, you can't buy memories like that.
And don't worry about the juice brakes and color with the car club. Welcome to the barn.

Re: New guy here!
Hi Matt. I got the car when I was 14 years old, and I'm 35 now. It is bone stock except for the juice brakes and the color.

Re: New guy here!
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 W.

Re: New guy here!
Nice looking A....and you will have a ball driving it to high school. My first car was a 1930 Model A Coupe, which I got my senior year in high school. Have lots of fun with it!
