You know, as old school a mechanic I think I am I would have never thought of the BBQ grill and Freezing to attach the Starter ring to the flywheel. Learned something new today. Great Job on that one.
old pilot bearing can be knocked out, should have lightened the flywheel and used a V8 pressure plate to ease shifting into first. Reduces the wait for things to stop rotating between clutching and shifting. Otherwise grinding.
To us, the wait is part of learning to drive a Model A and part of the full Model A driving experience. Do as you enjoy and others will do as they enjoy. Thanks for watching.

Thanks! It’s a trick we learned from some other Model A’ers. It really does work surprisingly well.
Another great video, hopefully I won’t need this for awhile on my 400. This is a good asset to have for the Model A Club.
