Not to be real critical, however there are many items that aren't right for an early 28 vehicle, including the emergency brake, carburetor and fold down top. It appears to be a decent driver, but not very correct in a number of ways. But to each, his own.

I noticed the bungy cord for the battery too. Nice touch. Really adds value in my opinion.

Not to mention that he states that the Model A was introduced in December of 1928

Looks like a fun truck, what he says isnt all correct but for what it is it works. Sounds like it needs a tune up or carb adjusted or something. late in the video does anyone else hear an ominus rattling from the engine?

Headlight lens incorrect for 28, Engine side cover for later engine but I guess the owner posted that in the description.
