I have owned and driven many Model A's over the past 60 years, but yesterday was the first time I have had an oil pump failure which wiped out the bearings on a less than 1,000 mile engine. Only running at 45 mph. A post mortem will tell more.

Not too many parts to fail in an oil pump so it will be interesting to find out how it failed.
