    Nice to hear the sound of the ratchet without some annoying music getting in the way of the sound of work. Much appreciated. ❤

    Great shop. It's like taking a trip back in time, few shops tear down Model A's anymore. Except the hot rodder guys, but before they tear down a model A, they need to get a tattoo. I guess you guys get a pass, since you're not dropping, channeling, sectioning, chopping, supercharging, or injecting, etc. Cheers from KCMO

    It is really neat that you guys find and use the period tools that were developed during the days that these cars were in use. As a former Mac Tools dealer I would get these witty comments from mechanics that the tool companies were in cahoot with the manufacturers just so that mechanics would have to buy tools in order to service trucks and automobiles. Of course the people up at Mac informed us dealers that the cars change so fast, the tool manufacturers could not keep up with these changes. And a lot of dealers themselves would create special tools to solve problems that the manufacturer would start to produce. The older shops that I called on would have a lot of special tools hanging up in the rafters, and you could document the time that these shops have been in business just by identifying these tools. Granted there are all kinds of ways that people have come up with to be able to substitute for not having the proper tool for the job, but there are times when it is to ones advantage to pony up the funds for tools that can speed up the job and of course do the job professionally.

    Hey , Matt & Jim
    I love your channel. I have been a sub of Coldwarmotors for years. Love Scott & all the Agent's that make it so much fun to tune in over there. I have to let you guys know that I have never seen such an awesome shop as yours, the history of repairing early automobiles speeks from within your shop, love the ingenious design of your overhead air powered shop crane, I have never seen anything like it in my 64 years. My hat is off to both of you for keeping the shop in such an original masterpiece that is. Take care, you guy's . ❤

    that trolley is freaking awesome man!!! You guys have me reading up on early fords and GM vehicles. A guy thinks he knows a fair bit about cars, but just like when I took my electric motor class, I realized quickly I didn't no hardly anything hahaha. A lot happened from 1910 to 1930. A lot of stuff I really just hadn't put enough thought into before.

    There is a channel called Shed Racing with a lovely fellow who works on old engines like yourselves and he has an engine where they actually patched up a hole like the one you have there with a plate and it is screwed in to the remaining block and it works just fine. Just thought I would mention it. I love your garage. I can't wait to see what other surprises are in that engine.

    @danielulz1640 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Good show and the second one in this week! Well fellas, that IS one way to pull an engine. Just remove absolutely everything else from the chassis and the engine lifts right out! I'm not sure that that was the procedure in the 1932 Ford service manual, but that would be even before my time. Waiting for the next installment of "Well we took it completely apart, now let's see if we can figure out how to put it back together ". LOL.
