Default Re: Most-asked question about your Model A?

1. What year?
2. How fast?
3. What's it worth?
4. What is it?

Always strikes me as odd that the last question is usually, "What is it?"

Had a delightful conversation with an elderly lady at the market one day. She was all excited, knew it was a Model A, knew it was a Roadster and asked if I was going to be there awhile so she could go get her husband. A few minutes later she shows up with this gentleman in tow and asks him if its the same car he had when they met. He looked it all over and said, "...could be, same color and year, but mine didn't have sidemounts on it." Then he leaned over and said, "...you know, I had to sell that car to buy her wedding ring, still not sure who got the best part of that deal..." She slugged him and they both walked off arm in arm laughing.

That's what its all about.
