What a beauty! She brings back so many memories. Back in the late 60's you could pick up what today we call a barn find for $5.00 and a lot of us used to spend our days doing exactly what you guys did in this video just to have some fun and cheap transportation. Back then at .50 cents per hour that was a day's pay to play. Thanks for taking us along guys. A very enjoyable video.

In 1970 I passed my driver's license test in my dad's 1930 model A coupe, I think the testing guy was just enjoying riding around in the car, and didn't have me do much other than drive around the driving course. I guess he thought if I could start and drive the car I should have no problem with a modern car.

The hole in pass floorboard is for the manifold heater that bolts on to exhaust. Basically a rectangle cast-iron tube the wind would blow thru when moving. Closing gate inside firewall. On our friends we put a tin shingle with bent over edges that would slip over flange front of heater for summer, shutting down any heat entering interior. This vid brought back memories of my 31 I traded for in 1962.
