Model A Guy words of wisdom - “put your gas cap in your pocket and not on the running board.” A man of experience!!! Looking forward to the 2024 projects and adventures.
I don't want to lose that original cap! Happy new year to you.
Happy new year , love your model a's
Would love to drive it.
One of those :)
Where is this ? The desert ? Arizona ?
It's great to see the Fordor out Paul. She's a beautiful ride as I can vouch for her.
Yes you can! Thanks.
It's great to see you take the Fordor out Paul. I can't wait to get another ride in it! Ha ha! Happy New Year!
That's badass !!!
My favorite in the collection!
You drove it!! Happy new year Zack!
I was thinking of your annual drive on Saturday. Glad you got the chance, what a fantastic A. Looking forward to learning more in 2024, thank you for all you do. Happy, healthy, and blessed New Year! ~ Chuck
Happy new year to you Chuck!
How about you (or Tina) doing a short video on using a circuit breaker instead of a fuse? I've been using one for decades.
A good idea; I have a fuse and would like to see the circuit breaker video.
That would be about a 30 second video! Happy new year Rick.
That's why I thought it might be a good one for you and Tina's Daily Video :)
Hi Paul keep the model A news and repairs going great job, thank you.
Wow what a year you and Tina have had in 2023. I am looking forward to following you guys in 2024. Your gas cap tip in a winner. I started doing the pocket thing a few years ago after losing way tooooo (won't say) many. I think the last one was when we were going to Nashville in 2022. I started to think my car was leaving its mark with gas caps as we traveled this beautiful country God has given us to enjoy in our Model A.
God bless you and Tina
Steve and Leah
Our year was better with you in it. Thanks! God bless
Happy new year and thanks for all you've done for the Model A hobby!
Thanks for the video! I'm looking forward to seeing progress on Gandolf as well as the new truck! I am hopeful that this is the year I buy an A! I am working hard to manifest it into my garage.
That would be excellent! Happy new year to you.
You Won't believe it, I clicked on your New Years 1929 Drive, and it dropped my subscription to your channel. Got it back but it dropped it on two TV's and a computer. Like the Twilight Zone.
What the foxtrot is UA-cam's problem? Sorry Bout that! Dang computermachines...
Thanks for brining us along on this special ride Paul. Congrats on all the filming you've done as shown in the "here's what's coming up" section.
Happy new year to you Jeremy!
First of all Happy new year Paul. Thanks for share your videos and adventures. I hope 2024 better year for all model A lovers.
Happy new year!
Happy 95th Birthday to the Survivor model A 🥳🥳👍
Thanks!!
I absolutely love the channel! Im a chevy guy but my favorite classic ford is THE model A!!!! ive wanted one for a long time, maby one day I can find a good driver I dont want a garage ornament. The fact that that company is casting new engines is absolutely amazing! maby one day someome can make a model A car kit like the factory 5 cobras or something of that nature with modern components that are easily available.
I hope you get to own one someday. They are a lot of fun!
Interesting, mimics a " '31" cowl. Beautiful survivor! Happy New Year!
The fordors all had the smooth cowl transition
Happy 2024, Paul and Tina! The upcoming episodes look amazing! Can’t wait!
Thanks Vaya! Happy new year to you.
Thank you for sharing that marvelous 29A with all of us !!!!!!l
Glad you enjoyed it
С Новым годом! Твои автомобили стали ещё на один год старше.
Happy New Year! Your cars are one more year older.
Спасибо! А мои волосы стали на год белее.
@@ModelA Да, я заметил. Мне жаль. Yes, I noticed. I'm sorry.
Hi Paul!: Always enjoy seeing the '29 Sedan driving on the road! Can't wait for the upcoming videos!
It's my favorite car
Good start to a new year
Yep!
Happy New Year! Enjoy your January. I love scanning for and finding pirate stations. Some are quite interesting. Hope 2024 is a blessed year for you and Tina.
This guy is on 95.5 FM and plays some really, really hard rock and death metal with cuss words in it. Not my thing. Happy new year to you!
Happy new year. You my friend deserve a break. So many questions so little time. Thank you for your time. LATER !
Thanks Dean!! Looking at the newest carvings decorating our living room right now. Those little snowmen are cute!! Thank you. Happy new year!
Thanks for taking us along for the ride! Happy New Year!
Thanks Jeff!
A Great old car and looks amazing and I Love the old car because they look so amazing and you and keep up the good work.
Thanks! Will do!
You can mix marvel mystery oil and stabil no bad effects i do this in all my Model A and flathead fords awesome video thanks for posting
Great point! Thanks
In some of our stations here, 91 is the only octane you can buy thats ethanol free
Worth it
Happy new year! Wish you and Model T a wonderful 2024! ❤ Cheers from Italy!
Happy new year to Italy!
Paul and Tina, Happy and Blessed New Year! Glad to see this year's New Year drive, when I looked. Never disappointed with your videos. Looks like some great future videos (especially replacing the rear spring). Just joined the Twin Cities Model A Ford Club here in Minnesota. Somewhere I heard or read that you are visiting some clubs around the country. Hope you make it to ours. Thanks again for all you do and how much you have help me with your videos.
I am in touch with Mark Leder, so maybe.
Paul, I know you appreciate all donations, however I have heard you mention different level of donations (practically "Super Donor"). What constitutes a "Super Donor? Thanks!
@@brad-55437 A lot of people are generous and help with the expenses of doing these videos. Some people are very, VERY generous, and get te "Super donor" status because they toss a lot more into the pot.
Wishing you a Happy, Healthy and Abundantly Blessed New Year 2024 Paul and Tina, God’s Blessings Always as you keep those model A’s running for generations to come. 🥳👍
Thank you Samuel. God bless
Happy New Year! Took out my 1930 5 window Coupe out last night and will do today as well! 🎉
Excellent! Happy new year to you.
Happy New Year!
I always use 91 octane in my Model B with the high compression head.
Thanks for showing us this gem. Happy New Year again to you and Tina.
Thanks! Happy new year
That's a really sweet Ole A ,,, happy new year Paul ,,, have a awesome new year ,,,, some salt around here ,,, gonna leave mine in I guess
I only saw one Dear in the road - Model T! Glad you didn't run her over !!
She took my candy!!
Great way to start 2024
Yep! Happy new year to you.
I was hoping to see a video of this car driving soon, what an awesome car. Happy new years
Happy new year!
That's a beautiful car, I would probably get the 4 door, given the Model A wasn't available... if I could afford it. Well, I hope you and Model T had a good New Years Eve, also hope your month goes well. Have a great day and I will see you in February... Please stay safe. 😊
I might sell it for a million USD. Nah! Happy new year to you!
@@ModelA I don't know if I can get that much without getting in piggy bank. Nope, I'm $999,999.99 short. Oh well,
She's a beauty.
Happy new year Mr shinn and the Mrs greetings from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Happy new year to you Stephen!
happy new year paul!
Happy new year!
A happy model A New Year to you, Sir!
Happy new year!
Happy New Year TechDirect. I saw it, Spoiler Alert I saw a Green Cab and a Green Truck Bed or Box the Green Model A Work Truck is about to evolve. Nice.
Happy new year to you! The guy who is supposed to sandblast all of it is still too busy to do it, so it is in the way in my crowded shop still.
Happy new yrs Mr. And Mrs shinn hope you guys have a wonderful year
I was talking about your new yrs drive In this car last night to friends and was hoping there would.be a video
I knew my spine was tingling for some reason.... Happy new year!
Funny that I too have heard the 'you have to stop' or 'you should not try to downshift'. What rubbish!
Happy New Year!
Nice to see the survivor out and about again. And when did you add that lift? I seem to have missed that addition.
I don't know where that started, but I have heard too many people repeating that false information lately. So, I squashed it. I think the web forums or something. Happy new year!
Hi Paul Original can mean the way Henry ford made them . No cut out on modern GEN
Yes
The regular gas is probably used the most, so it' s the freshest possible.
Great video!
Your Model T is fantastic! Thank you for sharing!
Happy Blessed New Year!
Tell Janae` hello for me.
God bless y'all
Happy Paul and Model T
What about the Model A truck kit?
Still waiting for sandblasting...
Question: do you have those magnetic bumper stickers that say "My car will outlast your car"? Something like that. If not, where can we get one?
I'm planning on making a bunch of them and offering for sale at barely above cost. Minimum order is 500 to get them under $8 including shipping. Soon!
@@ModelA Very good. Keep us updated.
I thoroughly enjoy your channel. You provide so much information on Model A's and have helped me quite a bit. I have 2 of them. A '30 coup that doesn't run and a '30 Tudor that I bought 6 years ago, that does run and drive. There is one problem that both have and that I have a question about.
The doors on both sag on the aft part of the doors so that they don't line up with the body line and prevent them from closing tightly. What do you have to do to get the doors aligned up with the body. I thought that I had read somewhere that it has something with raising or lowering the cowl and/or the body. I don't know if that's true. Can you give an explanation (or maybe a vidy 😀) on how to fix this condition. I love them both but the door thing aggravates me. Any help would be awesome. Thank you and thank you for all you and your wife do!
On a tudor (metal body), that means you may need to shim the body and/or cowl sections to get everything to line up. I sorta touched on that a while back as part of a longer video. I will give some more info on that as I build the truck.
@@ModelA Awesome. I look forward to watching it. It's always been a mystery to me. Thank you!
Paul, I am sorry! I wound up being a traitor and buying a 1954 Chevy Pickup instead of an A. 🥴
You went to the dark side!!! We're still friends though
That is a good thing !!!@@ModelA
32 in Michigan today so I didn't drive. Un-restored 30 Tudor.
Not much warmer than that here!
Hi Paul - first of all Happy New Year to you and Model T! Question - what is the model of your 4-post lift? I'm looking for one and liked that one. Thanks!!
I'm not sure. It's an old one from an outfit that is no longer in business (got bought out). I'm the 3rd of 4th owner in my neighborhood. It keeps getting shuffled around my neighborhood.
Paul is getting a whole lot more wisdom hair than in the past.
Yea.... I know...
@@ModelAYou look so young (honestly) then the white hair? Love your video's
Do you have one about heating the inside of a model A or can you make one? Trying to help. New video ideas must get difficult eventually.
@@ModelA Be glad you still have a good head of hair. My buddy lost most of it by his early 20's.
@@keithwthe1andonly I have touched on that in several videos. Haven't done a dedicated one though.
@@muziklvr7776 That's one thing I don't have to worry about, plenty of hair. Most of the people my age have the yamika bald spot or the horseshoe hairline. I'm showing no signs of balding yet, but the white hair makes it look like I'm thinning even though I'm not. That solid Indian blood!! Redskins rule in the hair dept. Except from the neck down... I look like I'm 10.
What an awesome ride Paul. I sure hope that there isn't any truth to your governor's plan to ban all vehicles from 1978 on down. Lots of talk about it. I like Ca. but the leadership is too whacked out for me. For an original, isn't 91 octane a bit much?
Commiefornia is absolutely NUTS. I've got my eyes focused on Tennessee anyway. At least there, my vote would count.
Has the stripe been rubbed off the body? I couldn't see it.
There is almost none of the french gray stripe left. Whatever paint they used wasn't nearly as tough as the blue.
The car is so quiet and i want a Model A like that. So if you restore a model a does it loose its quietness in the engine?
The quietness is not isolated to the engine itself. It's a combination of lots of things. Once in a while you come across a restored car that is super quiet, but it is pretty rare.
Paul what you need a Dustless Blaster
I do!!
Why are you chasing tina? When you are already caught her!❤
She took my candy!!
Race fuel or 100LL avgas might be better, 'course it is low lead but without, I think, all the mogas additives....
I'm not a wealthy man, can't afford that $7 per gallon, and 20 miles to get it.
I have a 2 door 1928 ford model A. How do i find your video
www.ModelAguy.com
Could you use a thicker oil in the oiler like 75w90? I dont have a Model A but I was just curious in this instance since its not running through the engine.
Sure. It's not critical.
I bet this is the gas station that likes you 😂😂
Yes. I'm not allowed at the Chevron anymore! The Mobil is OK with me.
@@ModelA that’s not right. We have private owned service stations here and some acts the same way. I turn them in because thats not the “Chevron way.”
TO be fair.... That was a huge puddle I left there...
$5.19 for diesel, holy smokes!
Commiefornia sucks. Happy new year!
I think there is a company that makes a synchronized transmission
Yes. But it's not necessary.
with a alternator ????
I still have the original generator. It's just 1 bolt to swap it. The alt keep from boiling out the 6v battery.
Nice car! What do you think of the Model B? Is the 4 cylinder engine from the A a carry over to the B?
Model B has about 10 more HP.
@@ModelA Thanks for the reply!
What kind of fuel mileage does the original 29 get compared to the other model as?
Low 20's. Same as the others.
Why don’t u fix the vacuum wiper motor?, there’s not much to it.
It's an electric wiper. This is a 29
@@ModelA Oh! I failed to see that fact, sorry.
😂Looks like a cartoon
Yep! And makes just as many smiles.
@@ModelA wrong video sorry
Which video is the "right" video?
@@ModelA It was a big block Mo par With 18 and 20 inch wheels
Happy New Year!
Happy new year Jesse! Sorry your Jets lost.
Missed your video on Saturday and thought, “what’s the deal?!” Then when I saw your video this morning it dawned on me about your New Years tradition. Thank you for the ride along and getting 2024 off to a great start. Really looking forward to everything you have in store for the upcoming year. Enjoy your break! You earned it.
Happy new year to you Matt!
Happy New Year!
Happy new year to you Ben
Wow. That is the quietest A I've heard. It's like you have start stop like in modern cars when stopped. You've got 1 golden gem. Happy new year paul and tina. I've been seeing A phaetons body come up for sale by me. Wonder if those are loud and limiting. Meaning can't drive them in rain or if cold cause even if there's a model a heater it wouldn't do beans. For some reason I'm debating on a tudor and fordor but heard talking to a bunch of people thr fordor has a lot more wood. But I love old cars with suicide doors.
The fordors (except the 31 slant window) are made of wood. If you find one with good wood in it, then don't sweat it. But if there is any soft wood in it, and you aren't prepared to replace, then pass on it. Open cars are FUN!! But not in the winter. Tina's roadster ain't going anywhere until it's warm again.
First Paul, happy new year, second you lubing that distributor cam reminds me of many years ago, when we lubed those cams, we had a small, green tube " Filco" printed on the side. Just a little bit on you index finger and little swipe on each face of the cam. I still have a tube of it in my tool box. haha
I still have a half-used tube of that stuff too! Happy new year!
What an incredible survivor that sedan is. I'm glad it's in the right hands. Looking forward to more Model A videos. It will be a great way to travel through 2024. Thanks and happy new year.
Thanks Pat! Happy new year
Hi Mr and Mrs Shinn..
I recently picked up a beautiful 31 4 door sedan ..I have the 2 little flower vases that go on the pillars, any idea how they installed them back in the day.
Hi Paul, been watching your channel for a couple of years and always enjoy it...Someday I will Own a Model A...I'm always looking. Bob
Best of luck Bob!
Hi Paul, just watched your 1929 Fordor out for its annual New Year drive. I have a similar car, but Canadian born, as all our original Model A's are in New Zealand. I must say however, that I cannot agree with your "making Model A's cool again". Have they ever been uncool???😄
Today's generation didn't think they were cool, but we're changing that
First Paul congrats on you appointment. Scond, I just watched another model A car show. Made me think, how many model A's are in existence in the Us? I'm thinking ~ 100K?
That is a question much discussed at club breakfasts. Nobody knows.
That is exactly the kind of car I would want to marry...
Hahaa! You're a motorsexual? hahaaa!!!
Paul, I have some vintage Model A images, taken in 1959 showing Richard E. Williams' '28 Woody Wagon and a Model A Town Car. Also a pic of a 1900 Race car names 'Old 16." If you want them, I'll mail them to you, gratis. Is there some way we can connect to send them? Could ahoot a quick image for you to peruse first.
Hi there! That is very kind, thank you. Are these large images? Kodak picture size? My email is on the "About" tab.
@@ModelA They are 8x10 prints, B&W. I can't seem to get by the "Capcha" thing. Icheck all the right boxes and get a green check but nothing happens.
Nice more door, could a professional valet revive the interior, would have to be careful. Looks a great year of content coming up, like the pickup
Thank you!
Are you still waxing your transmitter cabinets? Great channel BTW!
Yes I am! Hahaa!! All my transmitters look new. Even the ridiculously old ones. Thanks!
I do very much enjoy this tradition. However......every year you say you need to drive it more often.
I know... I know...
I just float the gears, the same as my big rig, beautiful car drive. 😁👍
Cool, thanks!
Happy New Year!! See you on Groundhog's Day.
Happy new year to you.
Good morning from Ione.
Happy new year to Ione!
@ModelA. Check out Goldfield, AZ
For what?
Just wanted to get on here and say HAPPY NEW YEARS!! Hope you had a great New Years and a safe one as well. We had a good time just at home playing games, eating snacks and going to bed after midnight :) Hope your 2024 is the best year yet. God bless the both of you in many ways this year!
Thank you Pastor Craig! Glad you had a peaceful new year transition. TS and I stayed up late and then fell asleep almost immediately. We're not used to staying up so late! God is leading me places I never expected and providing ways to serve others that I could not have imagined. Blessings to you, Zack, and family.
is it weird i want a blacked out 8 window Model A? 😩😩
Only if you want to drive at night
Happy New Year
I really enjoy your channel
Thank you!

Hahahahaha!!
Happy New Year!
Happy new year!
You need to be in matts off road games.
I'm not even a blip on their radar. I'm just a regular guy, not a celebrity.
Nice New Year Tradition
Started in 2020! Happy new year to you.
I add Lucas oil stabilizer to anything that sits for a long time, like my 31. Not because it raises viscosity, but because it sticks to everything really well and helps to protect parts after a long time sitting. That stuff is both super sticky and slippery at the same. Makes a great assembly oil when putting together engines and other parts. Far superior to assembly grease.
Might be something to look into, nothing more than 10%.
That's what I use for assembly lube. Very familiar with it. Thanks!
My husband used to own a slant windshield
What a fantastic car
