Re: The Last 365 Days Of A Me too! It's been a good ride and in fact, that's what convinced me to "check one off my bucket list" and find a Model A. Late last year, I found the '29 that's in my Avitar. Thanks Jonathan!

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A I read it every day too and often wished I could do the same. What a great ride! And a great testament to the durability of the Model A. I'll miss it!

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A I like many others have read this every day and this has been a great ride. I hope that when I finish mine that I can drive it near as much.

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A Any advice on how/where to get full time daily driver coverage? Last time I checked with non-antique insurance co's, they would not offer fire/theft. And I though all antique insurance co's won't allow full time use?

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A The man works for haggerty insurance and the car had been a company car. I spoke with some of the haggerty guys at Hershey and they said on the last night of the swap meet, they had a big party and the company car was given to the guy to keep. Rumor was he was wanting to start another project. He joked with a Packard.

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A Somebody told me to sell my modern & get a model A as a daily driver. i believe he is right except for the price of gas, otherwise i would do it.

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A The best part of his 365 days was him driving in the winter we have a lot of wind and snow in northern Michigan.My hat is off to Jonathon.

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A I would love to have a good picture print of your rear view of car in snow as I always send such pictures on cards(if I can find them) for Christmas Cards. For some reason my printer prints your pictures very green. The colors are better on the computer screen. Do you have any actual pictures available. [email protected]

Re: The Last 365 Days Of A I met Jonathan just a few months before his year long experiment with the Mighty Model A and kept up with the blog on a almost daily basis.
His dedication and determination has been nothing short of inspiring and has probably been the determining factor in more than a few hearty individuals to pickup where this year long adventure has left off with one of their own. Congratulations Jonathan,, HRP |
Re: The Last 365 Days Of A Going to certainly miss it
