Sound of engine 1931 Ford Model A Sports Coupe with Mitchell overdrive through forest ASMR

People asked for just the sounds of the Ford Model A engine while driving, so today we are driving to Carson City, Nevada for the Northern California Regional Group event in our 1931 Ford Model A Sports Coupe.
We are on HWY 88 which is a beautifully forested drive.
I hope you enjoy the ASMR experience!

The right tool for the job! The perfect car for the perfect drive.👌

[@steveayers1053]

One of my favorite memories is when I was about 7 or 8 and the local MAFCA went over some mountains here in Va. They made the best sound as they pulled the grades! This was back in the 70's before OD and speed parts were widely available! Try taking a video riding behind another A, the sound is something to behold!

[@Modeltshinn]

That’s awesome ♥️

[@joostderidder]

this car is running .... and running .... and running ..... and ......running ...... Great sound!!! (and, of course, beautiful scenery)

[@Modeltshinn]

So far so good!! Thank you so much!

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for watching 💕🥳

[@craigpennington1251]

What a nice way to spend the day. The A is gorgeous & purring right along. Hood paint is amazing. Outstanding job from them. Reflections off the paint says AOK job. The view out of this car, looking out over the hood, is amazing also. Has a wonderful & safe trip home. P.S. That color with Wimbleton White stripes on a 1967 427 Cobra would be just perfect.

Thank you ♥️🇺🇸 Happy Memorial Day !

Great video, Tina! Felt like I was driving my Tudor. I'll keep this one to watch in the winter and help with wintertime blues😊

[@Modeltshinn]

Thank you so much 💕 I hope it takes those winter blues away for sure!

Beautiful scenery, beautiful, car, beautiful friends! What else could one ask for in life! You know we shut ourselves up in our little habitats, and don't take the time to enjoy the BEAUTIFUL planet we are so blessed to be living on! Thanks for sharing!

It's said that a lot of people moving out of California, but it's not for the weather or the scenery. Looks like the trip up to one of the mountain sites, Thanks for the ride along.

[@Modeltshinn]

Yes, people are moving out of California like crazy and we are even trying to figure out if we can also, government is taxing us to death and making the most ridiculous rules and laws that are only for those of us who work hard. California as far as land goes is gorgeous and if we do end up moving, we will miss being here very much, but it’s getting hard to afford to live here anymore. Thank you for riding with us, have a wonderful Memorial weekend ♥️🇺🇸

[@vayabroder729]

Just like in New York. I just hope that the people that move to the nice jurisdictions do not keep voting for the same policies and politicians that made them leave in the first place.

[@Modeltshinn]

@@vayabroder729 I can’t agree more! Thanks for going with us on today’s ride!

Here in Kentucky, we have had a large growing number of X California residents to come. This week we met a 4 generation family, 3 sister’s retired here. I have a small business and meet with a lot of folks and the X California’s have been very nice people, they are just sick of the Gruesome situation. You folks would be welcomed in KY, Ken.

Tina & Paul, such a great drive in a beautiful state. Sadly the politicians are ruining California, we spent 2 weeks out there in 2008 and was amazed by the scenery. Would like to come back one day, just to see the parks and the trees, not tree hugger. But the forest out there are fantastic. Ken in KY.

[@Modeltshinn]

Yes, this is truly one of the most amazing states as far as places to go/see and things to do, the government politicians and crazy laws and rules they are making is making it almost unbearable for those of us who live good lives and work hard…they also tax us to death here! We can never get ahead, we work harder and harder so we can save and do more with our lives and then they raise everything and we’re right back where we started, it’s truly disgusting.

[@billgoin4004]

Nice climb

[@56Spookdog]

Beautiful drive, at first I thought you were headed up to Pinecrest. Nice shine on the hood, enjoy your trip.

Hey Tina, when we left your place last summer and headed north up 88. It was beautiful then I now have gotten to experience it a second time in your car. Car is running great. See down a country road! Steve and Leah

[@southernbrothersbackyardca6616]

Would you two ever do one of these ASMR videos with a shift/cab view? would love to see the shiftwork and overdrive in use along with the drive. us car guys love that stuff could watch for hours. I've seen the overdrive breakdown video on your husband's channel but haven't seen one done as asmr like this. maybe a mounted camera behind y'all?

[@Modeltshinn]

I don’t see why not 💗 I’ll try that soon!

[@southernbrothersbackyardca6616]

@@Modeltshinn can't wait ❤️

[@vayabroder729]

Such a great sound; that Mitchell overdrive is such a great unit. A few months ago I saw a late Model T hauling a$$ on a road such as this one by the Florida keys; I wonder if those Mitchell overdrives work on those as well. What a beautiful thing to have a perfectly sorted out vehicle!

[@Modeltshinn]

Wow, that would be a sight to see!!! I’ll have to ask Paul!

[@williammiller2750]

I wish mine went along like this. I don't have an overdrive so anything over 40 mph the engine is screaming.

[@user-ty3vd8qr5j]

Hi Tina, I started to watch this on my phone, as usual, when my firestik asked if I wanted to watch in 42" HD? WHY HECK YEA!! What a wonderful scene. It sounded like you had baby chick's in the back seat.. lol. I didn't hear Paul shifting much. What gear was he in going uphill? One day I'll put a Mitchell in my 30 Fordor, maybe. Mine will run 50mph here in North Texas. Keep making great videos. Ernest from Texas

[@Modeltshinn]

You’re so awesome!! Thank you so much for you comment, made my morning! Paul was basically staying in 3rd for a lot of it and using the overdrive for shifting 😁 Once we got to higher climbing he had to start shifting more, it took more driving video in different areas, so later I may post those also 💕

[@user-ty3vd8qr5j]

@Modeltshinn , I've never heard lifters sound like that...I swear you had 2 dozen weeks old Rhode Island Reds in the back seat... what gives?? 🙂

[@mr_paw_t]

Thanks for sharing the video. I loved seeing the tall green trees. What was your average speed on the flats?

[@Modeltshinn]

Thank you, it was so beautiful! On flats our average speed has been 55- 58 mph, in the areas that are posted 65 , we still keep it about 58 at top speed.

It is resting again the windshield like most windshield wipers. The motor for the wiper is mounted on the windshield frame and is located in the front of the driver but out of the driver's view.

What does ASMR mean? Thanks. Chuck in Florida

[@Modeltshinn]

ASMR stands for autonomous sensory meridian response; a term used to describe a tingling, static-like, or goosebumps sensation in response to specific triggering audio or visual stimuli. It’s a thing lol Have a wonderful Memorial weekend Chuck!

Thank you Tina! Wow. I must have missed that class when they covered that. Haha. My first exposure to that realm! Cheers, Chuck.
