More Model A Pilots should heed this advice. We have people in our club that don't even look at their Model A for a month or more then expect it to start, run and drive without a problem the morning of a tour.

I always check and drive my car during the week(s) leading up to a tour date and hopefully spot any problem before we get on the road.

Not much fun working on a car you are unfamiliar with on the side of the road without the proper tools and parts.
