Re: Most-asked question about your Model A?
My wife and I took a couple of our friends to the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn MI in my Tudor this past fall. I parket it in the lot and we all went in. The wife decided that she wanted her jacket that was in the car, so back out to the lot I went.
As I aproached my car parked in the midst of all the jellybean sedans in the lot I noticed two men standing by it conversing.
I arrived just in time to hear one of them say how neat it was that the museum would park an old car from its collection out in the lot for people to admire up close on their way in.
At this point I nonchalantley walked up and opened the door to retreve my wifes coat. You should have seen the look on their faces!!! They were convinced that some tattooed 30 something year old punk was tampering with museum property.
After retreving her coat I spent about ten minutes explaining to them that I actually own the car and drove it there from my home in Salem MI. I showed them around the car for a few and answered their questions and even offered for them to sit in it.
I think that they left with a much greater apreciation of what an 80 year old car is capable of, and hopefully a changed opinion on people who may not always appear what they are.
