A beautiful day here in S-E Michigan. Rolled the 31 Coupe out of the garage for the 2025 season. This will be the 65 th year for that ritual. Changed the oil, filled the rad water and pump lube. I normally just drain some gas from the sediment bowl and carb but decided to pull the filter from the bowl. To my pleasantly surprise showed only a tiny indication of dirt, I guess that the tank is pretty clean after 94 years. Punch the starter and the ole gay came to life on the first crank. Model A's are wonderful machines
