The other day my wife asked me why I was pounding my head against the wall. I replied because it feels so good when I stop
Morning guys. Hope everyone had a good night
Start of another weekend tonight for those who are still working
going to spend some time cleaning up the car for the show tomorrow and the weather looks perfect.
Going to meet my friend who has an original Model "A" and I'm going to follow him with the 4 ways on.
I think the best he can get is 30 mph, 40 if downhill lol.
He has a 56 Crown Vic as well but he said he would love to take the "A".
Have a great day

Not to sure, but I think a properly tuned rebuilt model A should be able to hit 50 mph. Although the car would be running past it’s limits with the engine and more so the chassis. It would be scary going that fast for sure
The car is in excellent shape but I know he wouldn't push it that hard

They were never meant to go that fast. Even with a brand new front end in it, the design of it is not conducive with higher speeds. Mine has new kingpins all new tie rods, rebuilt and adjusted steering box. Took my and my pal 2 days dicken around to set it up. Each measurement you take or adjust depends on the accuracy of the last adjustment. Probably why hot rodders don’t use them. No he’s right 30 mph is fast enough
He literally built it from a number of bushel baskets full of parts and lots of rust now it's all showroom quality. He did everything but the paint. I'll take a picture of it, it's gorgeous
My AA has a 3 speed gear box and a hi and low gear box and it will do 30 mph but that's about it. And like Murray said wasn't made to go fast
and one hell of a time keeping it on the road if it would go any faster.

Here’s one for ya, I was sitting in my friends shop having a beer with him wagging the jaw. He has a 6 month old puppy. He was walking around in front of us and I let a substantial fart go. The puppy stopped looked directly at my *** and was tilting his head back and forth, me and Tom looked at each other and just bust a gut laughing.My AA has a 3 speed gear box and a hi and low gear box and it will do 30 mph but that's about it.

The toothless one speaks.
I don't know about that, when my *** speaks it has a pretty good bite to it.The toothless one speaks.
Morning guys I got roped into driving semi today hauling potatoes out of the field.
It's a sad *** that never rejoicesI don't know about that, when my *** speaks it has a pretty good bite to it.
Probably pays well

My buddies wife is also going. She and my wife have been friends since they were 3 yrs old so that's 71 years.

At least Fred knows what's for supper tonight and all next week lol
Not really About $20 an hour but helping a friend and I get all the potatoes I want.
They grow seed potatoes here but get to hand pick the big ones out.
I had a 1930 model A in my youth. It would cruise at 45 MPH, anything faster and the mirrors would vibrate really bad. Once did 65 downhill, dumb stuff. Brakes [mechanical] were poor. My dad had a couple of AA trucks. They both had 'low hole' 4 speeds.
Boooooooooo, Have you no shame?
