Actually the model A is great for learning how to use a manual transmission. It has so much torque and 1st gear is geared so low that clutching without bucking or stalling is easy. Also - I never use the term "double clutching" since it is misleading. Changing gears involves simply taking your time, stoping in neutral, and then moving on to the next gear. If you go easy enough then stoping in neutral is not even needed when up shifting. Down shifting involves stoping in neutral, blipping the throttle a couple of time, then move on down to second.
