Theres not a lot left original in this car.. I have seen it on youtube. Its a twin can engine disguised as a flathead, fuel tank and battery in the trunk, box chassis with coilover shocks and 4 wheel discs etc. Very well made though. |

Re: No need to go 70mph
70MPH is interesting but so is ability to stop! My mechanical brakes are excellent, yet not much tire on the pavement! I think 45 MPH, maybe 50MPH down hill is sufficient!

Re: No need to go 70mph
Nobody has yet to touch on the subject of traffic and distracted driving. I have two A's capable of 70MPH with hydraulic brakes and live on a two lane rural road. Over the years, my county road has turned into an alternate route to the ski area and back country activities. There are confusing traffic lights and new round abouts that make matters worse. Throw in the tourists along with distracted drivers and driving my A into town is no longer fun. I now spend winters in Southern California and there's no way I would drive an A in the area where I live!

Re: No need to go 70mph
Just remember more lies are told about-
1. the size of fish especially ones that got away. 2. the yield of crops 3. the speed of Model A's.

Re: No need to go 70mph
Glad I got the dyno run sheets showing one A with a T-5 putting out 59 HP at the rear wheel and the other one with a ‘39 transmission with Zephyr gears at 60HP
