Default Re: Why do you own a Model A?

When I was in 7th grade, my shop teacher lived in the neighborhood. He had brought a '29 pickup from Colorado and was restoring it in his garage. I was overcome with curiosity and my Dad saw this. Two years later, I received a basket case '30 tudor for Christmas, best present ever. Well, Dad and I restored the chassis and sheet metal. By then it was off to college and girls, go figure. I lost interest and sold the project, but knew I would have an A sooner or later. So I bought a '29 tudor at 57, did all the underside and have been driving it ever since. And, bought a '31 Vicky for when I retire in 74 days, but who's counting. By the way, shop teacher and I see each other at least every year at Hershey.
