30!

Awesome 👍

When I used to play with VW's you could get a simple little electric (12V) fuel pump that could mount just about anywhere safe. It has a fuel line inlet on one side and outlet on the other. Perfect for when someone would change the factory fuel injection to carbs. Provides 3.5 psi and I used it with 2 2 bbl Webers and always had fuel pressure. You can use a 6-12V inverter if you are running 6 volts.

My dad had a '30 coupe. I don't have a preference between '30 and '31. I prefer the '28-'29 radiator. I think the '30-'31 looks a little too tall.

What’s your other carb settings jets? Power valve? Etc ??? Thanks

So your saying with a speaker they had a radio

Fact Check: 1930 Model A cars had a round speedo as well and the same dash panel.. From June onwards. The round speedo was not unique to the 31.

I am surprised it does 60.

Personally, I think the 1927 to 29 Model A was a better looking car. They're a very popular car here in the UK.

Production was down as Chevrolet was outselling Ford because of their "buy a six for the price of a four!" Advertising campaign. Pop the hood on that 31 and see if the firewall has the late 31 teardrop indentation for the external fuel shut off.

2:55 Turn signal not stock so mine on left like most cars.

Which one looks best? The '32,😂😂 ha ha, just joking, the '29 looks best. 😂😂

What is the different splash panel in front of the radiator you have on the ‘31?

This was useful thank you. It’s only when you have them side by side that the subtle differences notice. 😊

Why do people feel like it’s necessary to insult and name call in the comment section?

I had an 86 Nissan 4 cylinder with 8 plugs.... Didn't seem to make a difference when I switch the plug wires...

I wish you were my neighbor. We would be good friends! Great video.

Where did you source the ratio gauge?? What kind of head are you running?? How about the distributor?? Interesting stuff!!

I would like to know how to wire the tachometer. Ignition coil - wire?

Great video mate very interesting 👍 Congratulations from Aotearoa New Zealand 🇳🇿

I'm a Dodge man to the core, but the 1931 car is far & away the better of the two. Not just the radiator shell, but many other features as well. But in the end [tongue in cheek] it's 'just' a Ford anyway. You keep making video's & I'll keep watching.

Would love to see and learn more about your car. i.e. 12v or 6v, other engine mods?? I looking at a mild Banger conversion on my '29 coupe. Thanks for any info you might want to share 👍

Oh sweet a model A owner in AZ. Do you bring the cars out to pavs? Feel like ive seen one of them before

Why would you put a Holly carb on a Model A? Was it designed for a long stroke engine that runs at low RPM?

Do you think the Holley sniper 1 barrel kit will work on model a.. it’s meant to replace 1100 series ford carburetor..

I notice you are running a V8 waterpump, Been looking for the same setup with the fan attached... Would you mind sharing some info on where I could find one? Thank you sir...

One of the simple speed parts from the early days of hot rodding was to have a pressurized fuel tank with a small hand pump. When the driver wanted to go fast they would pump the the air pressure in the fuel tank before making a “speed” run. With proper tuning and fuel pressure you should easily be able to cut your 0-60 times to ~ 30 seconds.

Good job! Can't wait for the weather to change so I can drive mine.

Hell ya brother

I am so glad you pointed this out. My gearbox was nearly empty. Thanks for the great information.

Thank goodness for the 5spd trans. If double-clutching the stock non-synchro 3spd., you may have run out of road before hitting sixty.

The 30 radiator cowling looks much better than the 31😊.

You’re cute 😊

A+ for the mighty model A any day

I didn’t know that !!!😮

What kind of cylinder head is that? Distributor? Carburetor?

Beautyful Model A clearly the better choice !

Very clever!

I cannot drive a model A and walk away without looking back at it! Does not happen! The modern car...ah, er, no loving look back. The A? I could stare at it all day! Is it love or moto lust? I'll let you decide!

I have a 1916 Dodge Brothers which i drive a lot. And its an open car. Short of the brakes in busy areas its a blast to drive and very reliable. Daily driving cars like this makes your day and an adventure.. And love the shock value. Great video

Get that modern car out of here !

They did not really change the Model A from late '30 to early '31. The new '31 models were the deluxe slant window types introduced to attract Depression buyers who could not afford a higher priced car. These models were not available until about mid '31. All the late '30 types carried over into early '31 or longer. Ford did not stop using the stock of old parts & a fresh new model each year was not the usual until later into the decade. The '31 radiator shell did not become used exclusively until after March in USA ; it was a cost cutting method as less s/s used & easier to make than the '30 s/s one. The later dash/tank, & one piece valance were introduced in late '30. The true indicator of a '31 model is the ' indented ' firewall with the fuel tap on it & this appeared about May 1931! Keep up the good work with your videos. Cheers.

Pedal to the metal !

Got to Keep them running

Always got to read the owner manual!

Nice !

Very respectable. The high comp head, twin ignition & modern gearbox are really helping. A stock Zenith could have given more fuel for this. I once took my Fordor up to about 55 which was way more fast than she wanted to go. Cheers.

Okay, thanks for the education on Suzie.

Why do people name their cars?
