    Hey Merlin,
    Those A bones are really simple cars.
    Of course knowing them well as you do helps a lot.
    I hope that fella can take a deep breath now and then so that he can enjoy the car.
    His wife sure seemed to like it.
    Ya kinda have to let that green paint settle in on ya, it just takes a bit of time.
    It could use some pinstriping to break it up a bit.
    Ma kay is sure a great helper.
    He just jumps right in to get it done, no matter what the task.
    The music in this video is great !
    Was not too loud as many videos are as well as having good fade out.
    Great editing !

    When you said it could also be brushed or rolled ,that reminded me of when I was a kid (1963). My Mom had a 49' Mercury an old army staff car, with suicide doors, she wanted it painted. So she bought a can of black enamel and her and I and my oldest brother brush painted that car one Sunday afternoon. Brother wired an old radio in the glove box.

    Greetings from Germany & Happy New Year to you and family hopping that it will be a better one for us all.
    Merlin, you know theses old Fords inside and out... and it's second nature for ya. My dad went to work for Studebaker in 1929 and did mechanic's work until his health failed him in the mid 60's. I was the youngest of 4 siblings and still recall some of his dinner table stories. Dad pretty much knew those old cars inside and out as well. It was too bad for me that my dad didn't start getting smarter till after my teenage Know-it-All years. I missed out on so much knowledge that I had to learn the hard way over the years. Never the less what I did learn from dad I do appreciate to this day.
    I really enjoy your channel and as always look forward to the next project. That old Prat & Whitney radial engine will be an interesting series to watch. Really looking forward to it.
