Restoration Specialist Forrest Davis of Griot's Motors
Anyone who's ever had a project car has a vision of the finished product in their mind's eye- but living up to the dream can be a challenge. Luckily, there are shops like Griot's Motors that take pains to do a proper job.
Forrest Davis is the shop foreman at Griot's and he's obsessive about the details that set a project apart from lesser efforts. From nuts and bolts to paint and body, an authentic restoration is more than the sum of its parts.

    If you increase RPM in neutral when you downshift you should not grind gears. PRACTICE PRACTICE

    Nothing like driving a Model A!! I have a 29 Phaeton. I tune mine by the Les Andrews handbook. Clean all the electrical connections, and set all the gaps . Might be the coil or condenser for the weak spark. You're spot on with the driving advice!!

    Great video! I have one also. You need a really tight hat. The intermittent miss could be caused by worn distributor bushings or points cam. Also, rebuilt brakes would make your drove a lot less stressful. Finally, running faster than 50mph for extended periods will beat up the bearings.

    • @horsepowerheritage
      @horsepowerheritage 7 днів тому

      Very true about the hat! I've had one or two blow away and had to circle back. My brakes are in great shape thankfully- but I'm still very careful. And you're spot on about the bearings. Maybe some day I'll do insert bearings. Thanks for watching!

    This Kiwi was lucky enough to spend quite sometime with Mr Gurney in the early/mid 2000's, several visits to AAR and a organized shop tour 4th July 2005. He spoke highly of my fellow countrymen Bruce McLaren and Denny Hulme. Got to meet you too Justin and Mr Remington(RIP) as well. What a great human Mr Gurney(RIP), my all time motorsport hero. Thanks for the great video and Merry Xmas to you all.

    I'm saddened by this closure; twice I got there after they had closed for the day. On my last trip (3rd time), I got to see this wonderful collection and spent nearly the entire day looking at fantastic collection of autos and other items on the mezzanine. It was a great experience to enjoy these moving works of art. Hopefully some of the vehicles will attend other auto shows.

    I think the greatest travesty, for me, of this museum is that I was never aware of its existence until now. How many wonderful museums are not properly promoted I have to now wonder.

    Oh i am well aware of how out of control it can get!!!. I too have a 31 roadster. Same thing happening. Pulled the head decked it and new gasket. Over heating. Checked the valves one was bent. DOD a valve job. Still over heating. Rebuilt the carb (it was running super rich). Rebuilt the distributor, still over heating. Replaced the water pump. Still over heating. Pulled the radiator had it flushed out. Problem solved.

    This is amazing stuff. I'm way behind in understanding all of it, but recently "endured" the Monterey car madness week. More than my brain could process. However I am going to start following Horsepower Heritage. He's got a good grip of many things car related. I'm amazed at how he gets access to and interviews some very accomplished individuals. Hey Kevin Czinger - love the sports models but let's get to a "people's car". It worked for VW. IPO? When?
