Paul,
This year, I bought a '29 sport coupe from an old meticulas guy who routinely did what should be done regularly to a model A to prepare it for storage each winter. He DRAINED the gas tank, because he thought that that was the thing to do. Well, I'm here to tell you that the "dry" gas tank was/is covered entirely inside with rust particles! I've drained it and strained it and still have to change filters,etc... DON'T DO IT!!
