Default Re: Clutch replacement costs...

The problem that I have seen in a lot of collector cars is that they have been poorly maintained by owners that either don’t have the knowledge or money to complete the proper repairs.

Learning as you go isn’t always the best way to fix something. Not every Shade Tree Mechanic is a good one.

Give me a real shop, correct car lift, right tools on hand, and people that have a knowledge of how cars work, plus willing to take their time.

If we were taking about a million dollar collector car. This conversation would be going no where. It would be a joke.

Most Model A’s are very poorly maintained. I hate to say this but I do believe it is true. That is confirmed by many of the comments that have been made here.

As Brent is I think trying to say, if the car is really worth something, than it costs something to keep it that way.

How do you get a Volvo to 200,000 miles and 20 years old. You maintain it properly, sometimes spending more than the car is worth. Enjoy.
