One of the reasons I like my Model A's stock is the connection I gain with the ingenious methods of early mechanics and electronics. I get to actually experience and understand the engineering that went into making a car run in the dawn of the automobile age. Tinkering to the point of understanding the thinking that went into it is personally satisfying. It's almost like traveling back in time. When I want modern convenience and comfort, I drive my 2007 Honda. I don't own a Model A so I can have a boring, predictable modern car experience.
