2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Well both of my Model A's will finish 2021 in undriveable condition as a result of bad practices on my part.
So I resolve for CY 2022 and thereafter, (1) never to let my Coupe deteriorate from lack of use and maintenance, (2) not to drive my Victoria or my Coupe over 60 mph again, (3) to restore my Coupe to excellent operating condition, and (4) to finish the little things I skipped over in the restoration of my Victoria.
What are your Model "A" resolutions?

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Same here, will not drive over 60, disconnected the fuel pump.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Put more miles on it.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Get my roadster out of storage and actually put some miles on it.
Fire up the Rdst. PU and drive it.
Finish the chassis of my 36 Fordor and get a running chassis by the end of the year.
Finish my shop.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Complete the building of my '29 RPU, register, insurance, then drive it all summer!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

I resolve to win the lottery and buy 2 or 3 more, plus a shop to put them in.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Waiting for my new inserted engine and Mitchel syncro trans. Bought a ton of new stuff so I can walk to the bench when putting it all back together. No more long distance touring.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

I resolve to NEVER AGAIN agree to put together an “A” I didn’t take apart. ( and I mean it this time)

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

No changes here, just drive my 31 coupe whenever, she is there waiting....

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Drive it more.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Finally 85% complete on the revival of my 31 Roadster. Just need a top and a little upholstery work. Drive it all I can when spring comes. Maybe short trips until my outdated "roller" tires start to give up, then buy new ones. Last time I drove it regularly was in 1958, then drove it a couple of times last fall after it was painted. Now sleeping for the winter (the A that is, not me). Merry Christmas everyone!!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

2022 calendar has rebuild rear end in one coupe and build SOHC for other.

Merry Christmas and Hopefully Happy New Year, Y'All!!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

I bought new tires and painted my Tudor (Sadie) in 2020 but have yet to drive it any distance to show it off to club members, so I'll be driving her if I have to pay $5+ for gas. Also I now have the confidence to paint my '30 Cabriolet (Monique). Just waiting for decent weather. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to ALL. LRF

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

1. Drive my A more
2. Help my Model A club in planning additional tours
3. Help fellow Model A enthusiasts keep their As running
4. GO to the MARC event in June in Morgantown PA-----plan on driving there with other Model A friends.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

1. Drive it more.
2. Rebuild the front end.
3. Small tidbits.
4. Go on a tour?

5. Buy another one?

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

I resolve to find why my 29 coupe keeps blowing the fuse and find the short that is causing it, and to reupholster the seat and back. Then drive to the creamer stand once it warms up in the spring.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

The brake light switch was the culprit in my case.

I need to find out why there is low compression in two cylinders in my town sedan. My roadster is pretty good, but it needs new tires (ordered) and to install the cast iron drums I bought a few years ago.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Drive the A more-as to a new house in the Seattle area. Stuff the engine and tranny in my 57 wagon. Move, join a new club and I am sure a whole boat load of other things. Have a great holiday everyone.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Drive my Model A more.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

- buy my first one...


- drive it and find out, what needs to be taken apart
before taking everything apart...

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Fix two little nagging things on my roadster and continue working on the Victoria.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Keep my Victoria from overheating in the hot AZ weather!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

#1. Drive, drive, and drive my 31 Tudor more.
#2. Find another frame with a title. I want to make myself a Speedster.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Guess we all have the same issues. There is NO reason I can't drive my 29 Roadster at least two or three times a week but I DON'T do it. Hope to start a log in '22 and drive it more.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Finish a cabby project for a customer! Why is it people ask about it every year or so?.
OMG!!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Hello, spend more time in car driving it rather than working under it !!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Stop looking for a roadster (good luck with that!) and get back to work on my sedan! :)

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Roadster, are great on warm sunny days,not so much when it’s wet raining and cold. appreciate roll up window more that way.

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Babbitting and Line Boring the engine on my 31 and installing a Mitchell Overdrive by May 1st. Goodby 2021 Hope 2022 is Great for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

To not sell this one and enjoy it!

Re: 2022 Model "A" Resolutions
 

Looks like everybodys resolutions for the most part revolve around driving their As more and finishing projects. The most amusing resolution posted was to resolve to never again agree to assemble an A that somebody else had taken apart! I have never bought an old Ford that came home in one piece so I know that will be a tough resolution to keep for anybody!
