Eystein,

I have been around Model A's for over 60 years and everything about the car is second nature to me. I am also pretty good at anything mechanical or electrical. It took me a while to realize that not all people, in fact most people, are not so inclined. That does not mean those people are any less intelligent. My wife is a nurse and knows a lot more than I do about helping people in hospitals. But she cannot figure out which end of a screwdriver to pick up. This is not meant to degrade you in any way for your comments which I thought were interesting.

Here is a neat video that illustrates this point (it is funny): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1apPPy0vL0

Forget the brakes, they really don't work. The clutch always sticks, and starts with a jerk. My car grows red hair, and flies through the air. Driving's a blast, a blast from the past.
