Default Photo from your weekend Drive/Ride

Had a pretty dang AWESOME drive with my brother in our 1930 Model A!!


24 miles of Model A smells, sounds, smiles, AAAAAAUGAAAAs and waves.


This was the first drive post gas gauge, shutoff valve, filter bowl, fuel line and Carb gasket replacements...


Not a problem one (except my shifting ability) and actually while replacing the gas gauge found the spedo/odometer cable disconnected. Hooked that bad boy up and it is perfect!! Spot on distance wise and the speed looks to be close as we paced a few cars during the drive at the speed limit. (45)


All in all a fun day with my Brother and our families 1930 Model A!!
Have a great week and if you have a pic from your weekend drive/ride please share!!

They're made to be driven but at 24 miles, the motor is hardly warm. Keep driving it and as your confidence (both in the car and your ability) increases, you'll be surprised where there old jiggers will take you.
