Sonny, you're welcome to do that.... and looking forward to getting Sarah soon so she's good and ready for spring!
I was fortunate to have a good mechanical aptitude and a mentor to "A's" and so as you know do all my own work, both mechanical, body, Paint, Babbitt pouring and machine work with the exception of turning cranks and cams.

I'm a tool nut and an avid KR Wilson and Ford Heyer test set junkie. I can't imagine not having the tools and equipment to do the job. I'm self taught in much of it but I can't take all the credit. I had a great mentor and since deceased friend Terry Oberer. Some of the forum members older than me may remember him. I enjoy working on "A"'s... pretty much do so 7 days a week with a break or so every now and then. Also schooled in flathead V8's and others.

I've enjoyed driving and touring everywhere in the "A's" from the Pikes Peak to the east and many long distance tours.
Model A Folks are the best!
