I just discovered this recently. The Gilmore Museum is like Disney World for car people. Very relaxing, beautiful grounds, gardens, historic buildings, and cars from all eras. Membership is a great deal. Go for it!
Paul, this 400A is incredible and is like the one I have recently purchased. I’ll be going back to the Gilmore this spring for detailed pictures. I’ve been there twice and it’s like a kid in a candy store. All of the Gilmore is amazing, this past Model A day, I spent the weekend on the grounds with our camper, such a great place to camp too. Anyone that wasn’t been, put this on your bucket list, plan on minimal 2 days.
Great video Paul. On that Town Car there are several 1928 features like the red steering wheel an the fluted lenses on the head lights and the cowl lights that it looks more like a 28 than a 29. She is a real beauty.Thank you Paul.
It really is a outstanding place. Not just the Model A museum but the entire Gilmore campus. I lived in Michigan up until 5 years ago and made several trips to The Gilmore museum.
Thanks for taking us to the Museum, I must get there someday. I had no idea that Ford produced so many Town Cars. I’m hoping you shot enough footage for another episode!
Thank you for this video from museum. *Really* nice gift from you to my today´s birthday. I´m interested again, and much more looking for _Ford Model A_ in Czech Rep. - _Pozdravuju!_ Have a nice day and continue with this type of vids.
Thank you for indulging us! Had I known of it during the 18 mos. I lived in SE Michigan I'd surely have visited. Sadly, I was busy trying to help a friend keep his small business from going under.
@@ModelA I try, but I don't think I'll ever live up to my dad's example. That's OK. We all have our unique gifts. One of yours seems to be storytelling. :D
Great video it could have been a lot longer . I have been to the museum many time even for a private Christmas party. I just bought my first Model a (1930) today just down the road south of Hickory Corners. Thanks for your inspiring videos. 73's DE WB8SQJ Jay from Dorr MI
Paul, you mentioned in the front of the video, that Briggs made the Fordor for the Model A, my Fordor, has a body tag on the passenger, front door sill that says Murray. I thought that both companies made the Fordor? Mine is a 3 window with an oval dome light over the back window, and a 3 piece fire wall bolted together. Thank you for another great video.
Paul thanks for the tour. Never was much of A fan more of a post war to mid sixties guy. But you channel is changing my mind. Would love to see you hot rod one.
@@ModelA: Paul, I don’t mean chopped with giant headers sticking out. I love the look of older cars, I mean a small block or a built six. Modern brakes and drive line tranny, with modern tires and wheels. With a A body would be a total beauty. 50 years ago I had similar plans for a 39 Plymouth Coup but life happens. Oh well. Take care.
Hi Paul another great video from the Model A Ford museum . I have been lucky enough to visit on two Model A days in September, and agreed this is the premium Model A museum . I would like if possible for you to do a segment on the Taxi Cab another rare body style by Briggs . I have a special interest in this body style ,owning one of the estimated 12 fully restored taxi cabs 🚕. 🦘 Your June calendar refrigerator pin up . Regards Russell
Shoot you actually came out to Michigan? I’m from right outside Detroit and definitely need to get over to that museum sometime. Next visit id highly, highly recommend both the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield village (btw they usually have a Model T caravan that comes through the village once a year, definitely don’t wanna miss it).
If I was a betting man, I’d wager that it’s just a matter of time before we see a Paul Shin contribution to the MAFFI collection. After all, you made the Ford calendar and you were not even aware!
While the MAFFI Museum would be the highlight for me in a future visit to the Gilmore Car Museum. With the following Collections on the Historic Campus, everyone should find something to appreciate: Classic Car Club of America Museum Pierce-Arrow Foundation Museum The H.H. Franklin Collection Model A Ford Museum Lincoln Motor Car Heritage Museum Cadillac-LaSalle Club Museum Museum of the Horseless Carriage Checker Motors Historical Records & Archives
@@ModelA Very Funny .To bad Harold was not still alive I would had introduced him to you . Harold died in 2000 his wife is still involved thou and there two Lemay museums one is called the Lemay Family museum you need to see both of them.
A great place to visit, thanks for sharing! Do you ever make it to the Old Car Festival at Greenfield Village? It’s a long way for you but worth the trip for anyone who’s into old cars. Better yet if you bring a car that meets the criteria. They are having it this year in September as usual but the details are not out yet.
We went up once but I can't remember if it was Model A's or T's! Probably was a Model T meet. I took photos of the 15,000,000 to do my 1926 T interior.
Paul you might want to check out mrpete222 on TH-cam. He has just published part 1 of a 4 part series on making a cut away of a Model A transmission. Lecil

The model 400A really caught my eye. Will the museum tour be a series? I would like to see more cars.
I am planning on it!
Great idea.

Agreed!! I have a review of a 400A planned. Should be filming soon.
Thankyou for showing us this beautiful museum with its stunning collection of Model A Fords. Definitely will have to plan a trip to see it in person!

Yep. Very interesting, town cars.
The town car is gorgeous. It's got the lines of the leather back sedan, which is probably my favorite Model A body
Wonderful place and Model A's.
It really is a outstanding place. Not just the Model A museum but the entire Gilmore campus. I lived in Michigan up until 5 years ago and made several trips to The Gilmore museum.
what an amazing collection. Always neat to see rare models.
Super cool and they are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I live in Michigan and this makes me happy to see one of my fav you tubers at the gilmore car museum.
Thanks Joel!
Would like to more about the Thomas Edison number 1 model A. Incredible that it has survived. Thanks for the tour.
Check the MAFFI website for more. Thanks!
WOW..... What rarity! Love the 400A! Maybe???? That's the one for me. Great place. Thanks!
Thanks Eloso!
My favorite Model A, the 400A or a leatherback Victoria.
Hello, Paul! Thanks for showing us these rare beauties! Greetings from Southern Brazil and have a nice weekend!
Gracias, Bruno!
Thanks for sharing. Always great to see something new, fun and informative.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for taking us to the Museum, I must get there someday. I had no idea that Ford produced so many Town Cars. I’m hoping you shot enough footage for another episode!
There will be more, I assure you!
Excellent commentary on a truly wonderful collection. That AA paddy wagon sure is a handsome beast!
Isn't it? That would be fun!

Holy lord, the paintjob on that Model A engine is better than that of my whole car :o
I know, right?!

Yes. Briggs and Murray made fordor bodies for Ford.
Beautiful cars... Thanks for sharing
Thanks for visiting
Heck Paul, I was hoping this would be your first 2 hour video.
Hahaa!! Everyone would be asleep.

I like what you do for a (model A) cars keep up what you are doing.

Awesome
Nice Museum ! Have you Ever been to the Harold Lemay museum in Tacoma WA. ?
Heard of it, never been there. Would they even let a slob like me in there?
@@ModelA Very Funny .To bad Harold was not still alive I would had introduced him to you . Harold died in 2000 his wife is still involved thou and there two Lemay museums one is called the Lemay Family museum you need to see both of them.
Yeah Paul, who said you can't "time travel".
Right!!
I just found your channel. I don't know if you can help but do you have any recommendations for a model a restoration shops?
In my area, I know of only one. Check with your local club.
A great place to visit, thanks for sharing! Do you ever make it to the Old Car Festival at Greenfield Village? It’s a long way for you but worth the trip for anyone who’s into old cars. Better yet if you bring a car that meets the criteria. They are having it this year in September as usual but the details are not out yet.
Never been there. I am only into Model A's. Not in to other cars. But I have seen video of the festival. LOTS of Model As there.
We went up once but I can't remember if it was Model A's or T's! Probably was a Model T meet. I took photos of the 15,000,000 to do my 1926 T interior.
Hey Paul. Could you talk about aftermarket turn signals. Do you use them? Do they need to be 6v? recomendations?
Sure! Well covered already in several of my other videos.
@@ModelA hmm. Sorry I don't remember seeing that. But thanks for the quick reply
Please do segment on 30 31 coupe interior panels windlace sad headliner
I don't understand. We do plan to put together an interior and film it one of these days, if that will help.
The Police wagon has solid metal rims and wider tires than the standard A.
Yes, it is a Model AA.
I've never done anything illegal. But I'd break the law just to ride in that paddy wagon!
So there is always another model of the A to covet a.
Yes... (said with a sad face)
Paul you might want to check out mrpete222 on TH-cam. He has just published part 1 of a 4 part series on making a cut away of a Model A transmission.

I liked 31 ambulance
Yep. That's pretty sweet.
I love this channel except I don't own a Model A which makes me hate this channel!!
Hahahaa! But we all love you!
Paddy wagon not very political correct
I have autism. I am not politically correct either.
@@ModelA I don't know what I am. But I've never seen a correct politician.
