Default Re: What strange comments or questions have you heard about your Model A

There was a meet in my town of Ford Fairlanes, an earlier model. If I remember correctly there were some 24. That doesn't seem many but do remember Australia has a population of only 24 mil and 85% live in state capitals.
Well I asked a bloke who I had met but don't know well, " which one do you like Rob"?
well I like the maroon ute parked on the roadside.
It was a Model A which was owned by one gary. As in me.
Well take it for a drive Rob, I invited.
He was reluctant for fear of damaging it. I assured Rob any damage could be repaired for after all it was a heap of shit when I purchased it and had been restored and could be done so again.
After much persuasion he reluctantly agreed.
I do encourage all to drive it, after all it was the very first car many drove for the first time. and it didn't stop on the commend "whooa".
My A, and indeed all A's have more class and character than any Fairlane and indeed anything that came off the production line since.
