    Nice, I made my own wood kit for my '30 Coupe hot rod in....@'96-'97 when I was in 10th grade high school wood shop!! I used the little bit of wood parts & pieces that had survived in the car for patters.. Turned out great. . I had to buy bows however cause there was not even a sliver of 'em left for patterns.

      Nice...it was fun and cool to tweak the proportions a bit. Now I'm working on the Coupe that will get it. The car I had when I did the project was traded up on.

      @@BoxcarsGarage Right on my friend. Driving an Old School Hot Rod is an experience that most folks cannot even imagine. To quote Warren Oats in Two Lane Blacktop, "Those Satisfactions Are Permanent." ...BTW, my lil UA-cam profile picture is me in my Model A😁

    Another good vid brother. The house my Great Grandfather bought when he moved to Sulphur Springs was made from cyprus brought over from Louisiana by mule drawn wagons. It still stands today over 120 years after it's construction.

      Appreciate that Ray. I do love the way Cyprus mills up.

      @_construction_2024- I may not understand your question.... but yes kits are available for both model a yr groups and most the others in some form or another. As for mine...im partially done...maybe more. I tend to make things difficult for sport! Thanks for watching

    this just popped up in my suggested videos. Lots of other details available for building a model A but few videos on the wood. So seeing the details was very interesting, so thanks for making this video

    I'm replacing the vinyl roof on my Fordor right now. Removing the vinyl has unearthed some rotted wood, but nowhere near as bad as yours. Weighing up the options of which path to take, but after seeing your woodworking shop and the time it's taking I will avoid complete replacement at all costs.
    Thanks for sharing your journey.
