I second that. Modern shops know how to work on modern cars. 90-yr-old painted spoked wheels are not their bag. In fact, I would expand that and say don’t take your Model A to any modern mechanical or electric work shop either. These cars require service from and by people who know Model A’s.
Hi Ray, how you doing?
