DIGGING DEEPER! 1930 Model A Ford Engine Extraction and Assessment!

[@rangerider9091]

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

[@petercrowl9467]

Don'tcha love it when they cut to the music and it's 3 times louder than the mic audio?

[@coffeefish]

I appreciate this show because it can be watched with children in the room.

[@franktatom1837]

Yeah, yeah!

[@valgalmotors847]

That hoist setup is amazing. Those old timers really knew how to get things done.

[@gilbertwashburn7095]

great video it keeps me inspired I see Dean got a new winter beater

[@MartsGarage]

Strong's garage is so cool on many levels but that hoist system just took it into the stratosphere. Thanks fellas, looking forward to the next one. Oh yeah, congrats on the 10K. It'll be 100K before you know it. All the best, Mart in England.

[@dennissmith5037]

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

[@williamadam3888]

That changeable hoist track is the cat's pajamas.

[@alexanderdereski4069]

The most watchable videos on KZbin.

[@billywird]

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.

[@dantiel4179]

Nice bonus episode That overhead trolley track system was great in the 1920s and is simply amazing in 2020s 👍😄

[@wesleypulkka7447]

SG, love the RR siding-style track switch on the hoist and all the old Ford hand tools! You guys really have it together, great Video!

[@Mr49Studebaker]

It's fascinating seeing how all these all vehicles work and come apart. Keep up the great work fellas.

[@waynegouin939]

Thanks guys!

[@cclarke6]

I like that overhead lift.

[@brianhdueck3372]

Congrats on crossing the 10,000 marker! Such a good show!

[@rustyrobinson8027]

Thanks again and best wishes from Columbus Ohio USA

[@robertahrens9481]

I love the fact you don't play Silly music in your videos

[@brianfalls5038]

Half the fun of watching you work on all those old rides are the tools that you guys are using. Love those old tools!

[@mthury4532]

Two Strongs Garage videos this week. Awesome

[@billbeyer657]

Ah yes...1930 window block

[@glennnickerson8438]

Even with a busted anke Matt, you got those coveralls on! 😆 Have fun tearing it down!

[@thegreatcornholio4349]

First engine I rebuilt 46 years ago. Had a 28 pickup. Best vehicle I ever owned.

[@nancybarnett2832]

My husband used to work a place that made over head crain systems. He put the bend in the tracks. He worked at ACCO in Iowa, they closed about 18 years ago.

[@antiqueradionut]

I'll drive my "A" up from NJ for you guys to work on. LOL

[@dcallan812]

I always found it really easy to take the engine apart 👌 Oh an "inspection" port fancy🤦‍♂ great update 2x👍

[@davidsolloway9349]

Congrats on hitting 10K subs ... now on to 100K !

[@duncanmacrae6384]

Love the old cars, but, watching you work with the old tools might be just as great.

[@garymccord4277]

Makes you wonder the difference in value of money the type of jobs those old tools have seen if only they could talk. Jim and Matt glad you guys talk for them. Great video.

[@SteveTheFordGuy985]

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 . ❤

[@HamiltonMechanical]

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.

[@danielulz1640]

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.

[@billtorrence8102]

love the old equipment and tools

[@christianmccollum1028]

I've always admired the vintage shop (real vintage and not made to look that way) but that track and dolly system is over the top! Incredible find - and it was already in the shop when you got it! That is just wild! Love the channel, gents.

[@andunabu3238]

Jim, you left your hat at home again…

[@davec9244]

The right tool for the right job, very cool the trolley, and air hoist! thank you, now you got to persuade her back into place! ALL stay safe

[@billyhord4508]

Amazing that there is still paint on the frame. Those A's where neat machines. Hope Matt's ankle is healing okay.

[@johnburch6927]

Love the vintage work

[@jimrky6062]

Always great to see good work, done right, and with the right tools. Thanks for showing us how it's done.

[@pamellasmith2503]

The renovation of the building is gorgeous

[@brianbethel9929]

That's a beauty of a Model A. I'm on my way to apply for a job there! Cheers from Ohio!

[@lonniemcintosh6239]

Other then the odd bad break (Mat ) You guys have a good thing going on ! Keep on keeping on cheers.

[@phillipleeds296]

Always fascinating to see the old tools used on old cars. Thank you.

[@jorgefernandez-mv8hu]

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.

[@petercrowl9467]

Working on T's with my dad I was so impressed by how stout those riveted joints were.

[@cratecruncher6687]

Jim has so many projects going right now it's hard to keep track of them all!

[@deaconblue949]

I hate it when a guy needs to get a hunk of baling wire to do the oil change. Great show fellas!

[@tomtheplummer7322]

Sunspot baby.

[@stephanieluigon5192]

Matt is going to owe Jim a few weeks worth of dirty jobs when the cast comes off and the leg is healed! Great stuff, you guys! What are those funny shiny silver tools you are using? Don't you have the real tools with the triggers?

[@johns9993]

That quite nice to have a rail and host system like that goes well with the whole shop and tools and cars LOL !!!! Nice North and south and east and west very cool how it was done back then! How come the bolts all coming off so easy not rusted to hell ?

[@tomwilkinson2184]

Thanks guys for sharing your videos, love your shop, Tom from Buffalo NY

[@donaldhalls2189]

Wild certainly easier than most modern cars, all the best to yous and your loved ones

[@maltmakers]

Ok Jim where in Iowa did your Lincoln come from? I live in Des Moines, IA. You guys have a great channel, keep up the awesome work, and thanks 😊

[@nancybarnett2832]

Hello fellow Iowan. We live in Ottumwa and our daughter lives in Des Moines.

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 The whole shop is already very amazing and the complete crane system is definitely the icing on the cake. So incredibly ingenious and versatile. I have never seen something like that before. Congrats for having it. Best regards luck and health.

[@formdog9861]

that trolley is so cool i love old tools thank you for showing us history in action you guys are great keep up the great work

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Well,that there go cart sure does need an LS ehh?Get some of those 28's rims and airbag it to the ground?Coyote swap,and lift it on some 44's with Dana 60 axles like Jethro did on the Hillbilly movie?LoL/. I watched the video I shared the link with in your last vid,and the Babbit pour and bore was really neat to see.Looking forward to seeing your work on this.Congrats again on 10K of well earned subs.Cheers !

[@davecarey7452]

Looks like a fun project. That vintage crane is awesome and... made in Canada.

[@RXRSawdustStation]

Excellent video, fellas! I had been wondering IF your Monorail 😉 traversed in a perpendicular direction to its trunk....I saw the single run of track and that one trolley in previous videos! That's an AMAZING 'Original' proper Shop! Wow! Looking forward to watching this project progress! Thanks!

[@fitzspike]

Good one fellas!

[@37silverstreak1]

that Hoist track system is so cool!! Watching you work on that Model A makes me wish I still had mine!

[@pierrevoyemant7137]

Fascinating stuff and as a lightweight from a sunnier climate I liked the huge indoor wash rack ...bet it's just common as dirt around there

[@maggs131]

Freaking old man gravity 🤣 On a side not that trolly crane and switchable track is the coolest thing since electric starters

[@Rosskenpo1]

Gave your channel a plug on my Ford Model A fb group. I enjoy seeing your garage and period tools! Lots of fun

[@JonDraeger]

Ahhh, an early Ford side oiler!

[@planetwisconsin9901]

Great to see another video!

[@brianbaxter3913]

Got to love that hoist and trolley system it is just awesome

[@paulk3533]

Great Video!

[@dosman01302]

Absolutely love the videos and the shop parts store, I want to visit sometime, don't know if you allow visitors, but it's just stepping back in time! Jim I'm so glad you enjoy the ford's so much! I can't wait to see the finish of the continental, ohh and the v12 linclon you just got! Thank you guys!

[@roadmasterk6019]

Very impressive, this upload...

[@angelaracino6236]

Great show men, nice to see how the old cars were built. Hello from Florida

[@cliffhaupt5413]

You guys have the coolest shop and tools.

[@deanbrunner261]

Kinda off topic but I was wondering what you guys use for heat. I know winters are tough, I grew up in NDakota. We had an old oil burner out in the shop

[@grahamparr3933]

What’s the load limit on overhead hoist?

[@wilenelson1810]

Cool !!! 🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧

[@MrButtonpresser]

Such a refreshing approach guys, brilliant stuff!

[@cool12360]

I'm wondering where I can find a sleazy winter beater deal in your area. lol. keep up the good work

[@philipdecatanzaro1822]

I never see you guys use air tools. They were around in the day. Many shops don't even use air anymore. Just battery operated stuff.

[@planetzebulon21]

You two are great. Love the oil change, got to poke at it sometimes. You both have such practical wisdom.😊

[@hutchjohnson2184]

Some live comments as you unscrew nuts from underneath to explain what you are doing would be helpful. Talk to us like we're your 10 year old kid to let us know.... Kudos guys!

[@rapidrrobert4333]

I had a '30 in high school but it didn't have the crankshaft observation port.

[@Gord19]

I really enjoy your work thanks a ton for posting.

[@houstoncowdog]

Absolutely outstanding content, really enjoyed it guys.

[@glenharper3136]

Yes I did enjoy the video.

[@Praterphil]

Love the shop! Thanks guys.

[@craignehring]

Love this shop

[@michaelbesler7469]

Nice work guys.

[@brendamcdaniel1958]

Four minutes go much faster at the car wash than anywhere in life. Maybe should of had a rain suit on while washing. Looking forward to seeing the finished car. Thanks

[@artjones2498]

Great.vid. matt get your foot heald up thank you

[@jodysappington7008]

thank you

[@gregwddriver]

I dread the clam shells the most. No room for sockets and barely a good throw with a spanner. It's tedious at best.

[@willsee1822]

Great content gentlemen!

[@ron1836]

What size are the fastener heads? Are they s.a.e.? Or are they u.s.s.?? I have a few model t-model a tools. Wrenches with ford stamped on them and such.

[@sunnyormsby8402]

would you name some of the penetrants, sprays, etc. you use in your restorations; i tried to magnify, while watching videos, but can't see all of them ? Thanks for the video...happy subscriber!

[@steveshoemaker6347]

Thanks guy's...l am Sub'ed....... Shoe🇺🇸

[@pedrodelacabra1855]

👍

[@xozindustries7451]

What does the b model engine mean? I’m not an early Ford guy, more like a 70’s Pontiac guy

[@Hanzyscure]

B comes after the A.

[@tomtheplummer7322]

🎅🏻🎄🙏🏻💪✌️

[@lesliebaxter2396]

no power tools used . thats old school lol

[@Hanzyscure]

Most people watching car videos have never heard a Mexican hand ratchet in disassemble mode. It's usually air or electric impact wrench.

[@tomtheplummer7322]

Hoser🇨🇦

[@brianandglendaharkin9457]

🇦🇺👍🏻

[@mikeungerer4980]

You wouldn't happen to have a carburetor for model. A Ford you'd like to sell
