That collection was awesome, what a treat to see it! I don't think that your Tudor Sedan is mundane though, it's beautiful!
WOW. unrestored cars are so cool to see.
if i ever get a chance to buy one of these in all orginal condition ,I WOULD"NT change a thing !!
I built one of Doug's engines and wound up racing him at the 1985? MARC National Meet in Chicago. I think he wound that engine out to over 65 MPH on the mandatory show tour. I thought for sure he would blow it up to my chagrin but it stayed together and he won the trophy.
The 1930s was my favorite year of cars
Doug's love of the Model A is most apparent in his collection. Beautiful cars and all very unique!
Doug is so gracious with his knowledge, his time, and his toys. Superb guy.
I love the drive home picture with the lights on!!
Thank you Paul for sharing the video. I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you Doug for allowing your collection to be shown.
Gorgeous assortment of examples of early automotive excellence. Thanks for sharing them all.
That is a superb collection! The town car and town car deliveries are GREAT! I see he had a deluxe phaeton also. VERY COOL!
A family friend owns a '32 V8 - his father was the original owner. Absolutely as original exept the convertible top. Engine as original, cylinder head has never been off. Had the pleasure to take a short drive in it and couldn't get over how quick it is.
Clyde Barrow liked em....
And that music is so fitting the pictures. Love it !
Would be an absolutely amazing to even be a passenger
I met an older gentleman (sorry, I do not remember his name, about 1973) who lived in Shelby, Ohio..While doing reappraisal work for Richland County tax dept., I came to his house and low and behold in his back lot were two 40'x80' steel barns tightly, I mean tightly packed with stored Model A's. He had every style that was ever made ...some doubles. Knowing that I owned a Model A air gauge, that used to be my grandpa's, I took it and gave it to him as a thank you gift for allowing me to see his collection in both barns. I will never forget it, and always wondered who was the lucky one to have bought the collection.
You are right Steve, he truly was a gentleman. His name was Vernon E. Burks. I too had the good fortune of viewing his collection twice. Once in the 80’s with my father, (who had a great time going down memory lane), and later, on a return trip to Ohio with my wife, again we saw Mr, Burks and his amazing collection. On that visit, a couple came by in their Model A to pick up Vernon for their A meeting. He advised us we were welcome to spend as much time as we wanted, but to please turn out the lights, and close the door when we were done. What an amazing man, and what an amazing collection. I too do not know what happened to the collection after his passing on March 10, 2014.

@@chuckgreen4039 Apparently it was auctioned in September 2014.
Love this, can’t wait till I have my own.
I had forgotten there was a Town Car Delivery! Great cars! The Tudor to drive home may be mundane, but it sure still is a lot of fun!
It's reliable.
That 34 pick-up with the side-panels is a WOW truck .....sweet ..!
It was wonderful to see those cars in that collection. Thanks for the video.
I've got a '29 Fordor Briggs that sat in a barn since the 40s; after a starter, carb, sediment bowl, shutoff valve, distributor, coil, battery cables and some motorycycle tubes it's now driveable again. The original owners had painted it blue with a paintbrush and there's a bullet hole in the right rear door. No exhaust (it fell off right after I got it running again), no roof material, no driver door glass...and all kinds of cool.
Thanks for the excellent video and for the jazz sound track.
It's great to see you California Model A guys keeping these special cars up and running.
Thanks Stephen!
WOW! What a collection. Several models I never even heard of before. Thanks for sharing!
Glad to share. Please subscribe to the channel!
Paul Shinn I am!
@@waynemiracle8928 Most excellent. Thank you!
Doug is a great guy and a wealth of knowledge.
Nice little eye-candy to sweeten my Sunday morning coffee. Thank you for sharing.
Good morning!
Man I love the original model A's sorry not into the hot rods or rat rods.
I like a well done restomod, like a restored body but made to look like the original, but yeah nothing beats an og
@@Dino-god69 My latest is sort of a restomod. Looks original but newer engine, tranny, brakes, steering. In reality, even the running gear is 55+ years old or more.
@@modeladenny1218 that's badass brother, best of both worlds lol
@@Dino-god69 What hurts me, I didn't build it. But for over 60+ years my wife and I looked for a 1931 Ford phaeton, preferably red. My wife died recently and to take my mind off things I started looking for any decent Model A driver. Up popped this 1931 2-dr phaeton looking totally original.
Lurking under that rare hood is a Falcon 260V-8 and Ford 4-speed hooked to the original closed torque tube drive train. Even the front suspension, etc are original. It does have updated F-1 steering and 46-48 hydraulic brakes.
Recently drove 16 miles to pick granddaghter up from last days of school.
After that 32 mile trip at 55-60+MPH I mentioned to my son who was driving, we shoulda videoed our ride. I got another 40+ miles of country road cruising and a stop at the old A&W on son's Smart phone.
The 50+ year old engine ran cool at 89 degrees outside and mostly 55+ MPH. Better than many used daily drivers I've bought.
@@modeladenny1218 can't beat the old Ford craftsmanship sir that's for sure. I'm sorry about your wife I hope you do ok until it's your time to reunite with her
That is great, well done , Lance
I absolutely love that deluxe pickup! I would love one of those as a daily driver. Since they're so rare, I would probably need to build one.
That truck is breathtaking in person!
Love the 66A- never cared for the standard pickup with its narrow body, but a wide body like this is a Model A I would love to own. But those unrestored Fordors are the top for me.
I agree!!
That town car delivery is so cool
My dad bought one of these in 1990. It had been restored in the 50s and only been driven to shows and The Sonic on weekends. It was bone stock except the paint which was red with black fenders and black interior. He drove it some but had alot of projects and it ended up in the basement the next year. He died and my stepmom wont sell it so it is still sitting in that dark but dry and heated basement. Maybe someday it will escape and return to Sonic and car shows. Good vid!
You would think that she would want you to have it.
Great video I don’t have a model A but I do have a 1912 model T torpedo runabout it is hand crank with gas headlights
Man! Must be a blast if you can run it!!
Old Nick thanks for your reply and yes it is in running condition
wow super nice collection
Beautiful automobiles. They are only original once, sparky.
We're only original once. Then it's all downhill!
Ever since subscribing to your channel I’ve been wanting to get an original model A.
Do it!
Great story and video, Paul! Rick Black, MAFCA Webmaster
Thanks, Rick. Nice to see you here!
Beautiful cars
Mr. Shinn thanks for this great video. 🚗😀🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My pleasure, fellow American!
Beautiful machines.
The WW2 scrap drives is the number one reason that survival rates are so low...the Model A was already over 10 years old by that time. Car collecting as a widespread hobby did not exist until the 1950s.
Just wow, stunning!
Thank you so much!
That was awesome, thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Super cool... thanks for sharing. We are currently restoring a 1951 Standard Split Window VW Beetle, but when done will be jumping on both our October 28 Tudor Sedan and my dad's May 29 AA stake truck. Love your videos!
Good work, Mike! Let me know if I can be of any help.
Owned a 1957 oval window Beetle. Lots of antique car lovers also drive older VW. Anything from around 1965 and older is calling my name.
Still can't see one of the rarest Model A's built in late 1931.....the Ford A Model 160B Slant Briggs Town sedan. It was the 20,000,000th. Ford built & I have the same model here in Australia. It too has won many top show awards in Queensland, Australia & is currently for sale.
I have accidentally acquired a 29' modelA truck rolling chassis with it's mechanical brakes, motor and trans, rear end intact! Lol steel wheels though, im thinking upgraded? I'd love to find if i can use my frame number to at least find out which rad cover/grill it had? I'm gonna build a boat-tail body for it using an aluminum canoe i have. Hah! Keepin that four banger though! It was re-babbited then left to rot in a shed four years ago and the rest of the parts were scrapped! RIP truck body. :(
Do you have any parts or a 4-speed trainer for a model AA, 1930.
Thanks
Nothing to say but, Wow...
I guess I'll have to be satisfied with my little old coupe. But I wouldn't trade it for any of those museum pieces anyhow, not that I don't appreciate seeing them.
Doug, the kind of guy who collects Ford.
at least not collecting horses
@@hunkydude322 You can leave a Model A in the barn without food and take extend vacations. Not a good idea with horses.
Ok where did you get the side wind deflector s with peep mirrors , they look great, but better on my 28 Tudor
Sacramento Vintage Ford.
Wow.
It may be a sin but I'm considering putting a small diesel engine in a 1930 Tudor sedan. A little 4 cylinder diesel would be reliable and fuel mileage would be fantastic. I want to drive and travel in my car, not look at it in a museum. I'm still studying on how to make it work. But a 40mpg 5 speed daily driver sounds great to me 😎🤘. A 3 cylinder diesel may work too. A 60hp diesel from a Ford farm tractor is about the right physical size to fit in an A. Right now still studying the matter
That's one way to go. We drive out Model A's all over the country, no problems. I daily drove my Aport Coupe for over a year and 10K miles. No problem. Check out that video. That car is absolute stock too, with an overdrive.
I jut sold my 28 Feb Canada A ford Roadster that i bought from the first Ford mechanic that bought it new It would knock when it idled Ford forgot to drill. a hole to the back cam bearing It still had its spare tire on the back .I have . A mnt 1930. Murry fordor second owner
Hermosos Autos 😍 alguno lo venden 😍 ahun esta disponible ☺️? Saludos desde México 😃.
Gracis!
Hi i didn’t know much of anything on the ford Modal A. i thought The Modal T was larger then Life.
yeah up until Ford had another idea and thats was to introduce the Model A which turned out to be larger than life lolllll
Have you ever seen a tandem banjo axle? I bought a model A project. It has 2 banjo rears some how put together to make both rears powered. I think it’s a custom built thing, but it shows no signs of major leaks.
I have never seen one in person. Only pictures.
@@ModelA how can I get pics to you? I’ll be tearing them down soon to see how they work. If you know of any history of them I’d really like to know! Thanks!!
Email works. I don't have any info on them. Sorry man.
Is that a UPS Delivery parked outside?
Ha ha! Looks like it.
Nothing for sale there?
How big is your checkbook?
I HAD A 1929 MAIL TRUCK WONDER IF IT WAS RESTORED BY NEW OWNER IN 1990 !
2 door sedan?
so the car with serial number 495 scored 495 out of 500?
Yes.
Great video, thank you. I really like the unrestored A's also. I have an unrestored late 1930 Closed Cab Pickup. This is my (nearly) daily driver. I see you're cruising at about 50 MPH in your Tudor, which is wishful thinking for my pickup since it's still running the original 4.11:1 rear axle gears. In your opinion, what is a good rear axle ratio for comfortably cruising the flat-lands in a pickup around 50 MPH? I have a 5.5 CR Snyders head and a Zenith Model B carburetor on it now and the engine is 'perky'. Thanks again.
A lot of people down in the valley (all flat land) run 3.54 gears in pickups and cruise at 55 MPH all day long. In the hills, the stock 3.78 gears are better. With 4.11 gears, you could install a Mitchell overdrive with the 33% O/D ratio and cruise 55 MPH all day and still have the low end grunt the 4.11 gears give you.
@@ModelA Thanks so much for your help Paul. Good info!
I would absolutely love a regular sedan delivery as a daily driver!
There are only 7 of them left in the world!
@@ModelA yep, not one of these, but the standard delivery with the full roof.
Ah! You sure? Those have more blind spots than Helen Keller
@@ModelA hmmm… good point. I do need something somewhat utilitarian. Maybe a closed cab truck would be fine.
@@aurktman1106 That's better.
slowly restoring a 29 60 b Briggs bodied leatherback
Nice video! For someone looking to purchase their 1st Model A, where would be a good place to start looking?
Your nearest Model A club is the best place to start. Thank you!
@@ModelA Thanks Paul. By the way, I'd really like to see a video geared towards what to look for, for the first time Model A buyer.
There are an unbelievable amount of Model A's of all shapes, sizes, and prices in Facebook Marketplace. Do like I did, set a price and a circle how far you are willing to go.
Then drive twice as far and pay twice as much, like I did.
Our 31 has a white canvas/rag top... what can I dye it with... it's stained in spots?
Call a company that steam cleans and treats couches and similar fabrics. I don't think you would want to tackle that job yourself.
Красиво.
W.O.W.
no more horsey, time to take your late model car to the dealer and get serviced and then time to remortgage your house to pay the mechanics bill LOLLLLLLLLL
And the significance of the blue toolbox on the showroom floor is...?
None whatsoever. That's just where it is sitting.
Blue toolbox paranoid guy shows up LOL
@The Constitutionalist
The video needs to remain focused on the Ford Model A, not the stupid toolbox. Don't be an ignoramus.
Without the tools in the toolbox those Model A's can't be worked on.
@@modeladenny1218
If I wanted to watch a YT video on tools, I would have done so.
I tuned into this YT video to watch Model A history, not some boring, mundane toolbox.
ford is greatest family history
I want a A or A T
Go for the A. Much more practical in today's traffic.
I feel the same way. I want a T or an A or Kirkham Shelby Cobra. Even a G.T. - 40 mark 1.
I want one of everything. But that split window Vette and the others are a bit too expensive. A decent Model A driver can be owned by almost anyone at fair prices.
I'm sure that everyone that Doug invited over ended up talking shit about him because he was just trying to be a cool dude but they all got real jealous.
Nah. Everyone there was genuinely blown away enough to just take it in and appreciate the opportunity properly. I've been invited back. Hoping to be able to be there without a group this time and get more opportunity to video some of the cars more.
the restoration is FLAWLESS .. i'm deducting a few points for that
Ha! Doug is a perfectionist. His cars are awesome. DEDUCTION!!!
i own a "fodor" model A....... for sale
If I was the wealthiest man this would be the life I would be living.
Many blue collar average guys and gals own buildings filled with Model A's and other old cars. Some began collecting when they were cheap or even free.
What's the difference between a Model A and a Model T?
Some simple answers. The Model T preceded the Model A. The A had a sliding gear transmission and the T had a planetary transmission. The A was more advanced mechanically, so you might say it was an improved Model T.
i think the Model T was manufactered in the 1917's or so where the model A came after around 1930
@@hunkydude322 Model T late 1908 as a 1909 thru part of 1927.
Model A late 1927 as a 1928 thru 1931.
Model A is a reasonably modern car driveable on most roads. Not meant for extended highway driving.
...TOO CLOSE
Wow Look at all hot rod material
BLASPHAMY
Quick lock the garage doors.
toys for the rich ... 80 years ago, these were grocery getters .. today, they're at car shows ... toys for the rich
You say that as if it is a bad thing. I'm glad there are people with the resources and desire to preserve history like this. It is most fortunate that this owner is so generous and willing to share with everyone.
You need a different hobby man.
Too many closeups and camera pans
Zzzzzzzz...
Love em but rat rods are whare its at
Yawn...
Only a fool would finger paint over a Rembrandt.
Personal preference is "where its at" - but why rain on this parade? What joy does it bring you?
A rat rod is what's built of a car too far gone to restore or turn into a restomod. They all have their place and people who love them.
we want to see the cars not the side of your face or your drive
Stained vs spray painted wood? Who cares. People that pickly suck the joy out of these cars for many of us.
Doug is nit-picking his own car. He is a perfectionist. Without people like him, we would soon forget what they really looked like from the factory. He doesn't nitpick your car, don't worry. He has very high standards for his own cars, and when one didn't quite meet the mark, he pointed that out. You have to admit, that's pretty cool.
We know that Doc doesn't care. Why so down on an owner who is honest about the cars in his collection? You can be any way you like about the cars in your collection, to each his own right?
My 1931 phaeton has chromed top irons and uncovered stained wood bows. I bought it that way and love it.
My Model T came with black painted wood wheels, cad plated outer split rims, and black wall tires. I stained the wood wheels, painted the split rims bright red, and added wide whites. Just those things stood out on tours and parades.
Masks!
Shots.
