If you are 6-1 265 with size 13 feet the first skills are dieting and shoe selection - Model As are pretty small inside. I wanted a simple around town car but now I want to drive it further. Living a mile from what was Route 66 only increases my desire to venture further. Easy, dare I say fun, maintenance was also a factor. My other toys are a 32V SVT Mustang that I have just finished an engine rebuild and a 170+ mph Mustang GT1 tube frame race car. Like this one -

My Model A skills have been honed over the past year of ownership by watching Paul Shinn YouTube videos.
