Default Re: Interesting read in Hemmings about restoration costs.

Gary, nice cars they look great Well done.

I agree with rotorwrench, that the Model A Fords left the Assy. lines in pretty darn good condition. Henry wouldn't have accepted junk. And also, in previous posts here, experienced Model A Ford guys have said 'If you EVER get the chance to drive or ride in a very low mileage original car, you will be amazed at how well they run and handle and how the doors have a solid 'clunk' sound to them when shutting, etc.'

In the Nov., 2019 Hemmings Muscle Machines there is an article about a guy who restored a '71 Torino Convt. He went way above and beyond and 'fixed' body gap issues, etc. from the factory. I wouldn't have gone that far myself. Here is a link.
