Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
I think the answer to your question is another question.
How big is your garage?

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
I started out with a 30 Town Sedan, which I love. Then I saw a 28 roadster that I couldn't say no to. I agree with others that one open car and one closed car is good. I think that I would like a pickup, too. Just so you know, I have two V8s, too. I sometimes feel like that is too much, but I like them all. You gotta drive them, though.

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
The perfect number is the number you have in your driveway, plus one!

If you do your own work - as many as you can work on at the same time plus 1.

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
ONE is enough for me, Ive had 8 or 10 in total and actually down to 2 if you count the doodlebug. Actually the doodlebug is good to have as I can use it for parts as needed on the coupe. Makes trouble shooting much easier, only thing is I have to keep the doodlebug in good running order.

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
Antique cars are like potato chips, you can't stop with just one! I drive 14 T, 31 A and a 32. When you walk out of the house you have to decide if want an early motoring experience, the new ford experience or the Bonny & Clyde experience. Oh so many decisions. Ed

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
over the weekend, i went to an auction right outside of town. Picked up a 29 sedan delivery, & another tudor. Never thought i would have a coral of A's. The 29 tudor has been on the road for nearly twenty years. The roadster is the current project. The cc pickup, comes next, then the 28 sport coupe.

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
Too many cars & I'm downsizing, sold 3 Model A's in the last 3 yrs, a modified 29 rdstr. with a Miller O/H, a 29 rdstr. PU & a 30 tudor. Still have 3 Model A's, 31 S/W Cabby, 30 CCPU & a 29 Briggs leatherback fordor. Also have restored 35 Ford 5W cp, 37 Chevy 5W cp, 55 Chevy B/A fordor stick V-8 & a 55 T-bird. I was paying almost $1500 a yr. to JC Taylor & driving the cars less then 1500 total miles a yr. That related to $1.00 a mile for insurance alone. After selling 3 Model A's my insurance is down considerably.

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
If I had lots of money, then I'd move to the country, build a nice storage building, and have lots of nice cars.
If you have 4 kids, and they each want your Model A when your gone, then you need 4 Model A's. Don't buy more than you can keep safe from the weather and thieves. |

Re: How many Model A's is the perfect number?
I have four cars in my garage. Three I drive and one I need to finish. I should sell one of them but can't decide which. My bride wants to keep the Lincoln MKX, so I guess it will be one of the A's. Probable list it for $50K and hope no one calls.
