BRAOL, Thanks for sharing the story.
I fully understand how "on your own" we really are when travelling in a Model A. As I've said here a number of times, my wife and I love travelling the outback in one of our As while pulling a camper trailer. A short trip is 6,000 miles. I carry a few spares but my best security is good preparation.
