Model A's have started 90 years in single digit temps and below on 6v systems. I would add a ground cable from battery terminal to trans as a good solid ground for the starter and clean every connection from battery to inside the starter switch. Also have your battery load tested - it may be dead/dying... Have you been checking the water level in it?
