1929 Ford Model "A" restoration. Part 4.

In this video, I finish the wood and we start prepping the body for paint. Also I take the chassis apart.

Thanks for taking us along on your build/ rebuild videos. I really like your style..... my bro has a 29 Phaeton in the same Andalucia blue.... nice Pickup in the background!👍🎩👍

[@SnowmisersCollection]

Great job on the restoration! Model as are one of the easiest antique cars to restore.

[@mafcawebmaster4237]

Nice work; good progress. I like the fact that you explained the pros and cons of lifting the engine out of the chassis. Your method using the chain on opposite sides of the engine will make the re-install a WHOLE lot easier! Been there and done that.

[@robj2704]

Yep. Just need to shim the longer bolt so that the chain stays next to the block, that it will not slide outward and put a strain on the end of the bolt and possibly snap it off.

[@mafcawebmaster4237]

@@robj2704 Good tip. Thanks.

[@johnlundberg5705]

Thanks for making this video- I really enjoy them

[@Okie-Tom]

Very nice work. Main thing I have run into is aftermarket sheet metal parts usually don’t fit up without modifying them some! I always enjoy your videos. Thanks, Tom

[@deanjernstrom3760]

If I could my 28 tudor would be at your shop next week. Fantastic work.Wish i could do that ...Thx

[@mr_paw_t]

very nice workmanship.

I like that Big Toe back up around 16:43 on the front axle!! LOL Super good Video!

[@robinimpey101]

Looking forward to seeing things being reassembled next video! The andalusite blue seems more blue than original, but maybe that's just the lighting. Either way it's a great colour! 👍

[@rcbjewelry1221]

I love the way you explain what you are doing. Do you restore cars for other people? I have a 29 Fordoor, that’s be in my garage for years. It’s a good solid body .No rust just surface. Let me know. Thanks. Robert

Love the color

[@jasonmushersee]

when i was in autobody college they did'nt allow armorall or any products like it in the building start spraying that stuff on interior panels/tires it would damage every car in the shop. they had a ozone machine we used it on collision and or water damage cars made me do that outside the building to

[@dalemettee1147]

Those open toed safety sandals. You'll changed them real quickly after you drop something on your toes.

[@jordanwhite6098]

what’s the peace above the windshield that caps the wood called. do you have a video that shows visor install

[@onewhocollects6781]

I believe it's called the header panel. Unfortunately, I didn't film installing the visor, but it's entirely held on with screws underneath and on the sides.

[@StevieD1]

Can someone tell me why cars from this era have soft tops? Why not sheets metal roofs?

[@gregf5730]

If I recall correctly it was because they didn't have the technology to do a stamping that large or in that shape. The 1937 model was the first Ford to have an all steel roof.

[@armandorojo4113]

They didn't have the tooling at the time.

[@richardvarian3632]

need to donate to you ? how can I?

[@onewhocollects6781]

I'm not taking donations right now, but thank you very much for the thought.

[@armandorojo4113]

Where are you located? There's a high school not too far from me that has a Model A restoration class that would love to take donations.
