Hello readers, how are you? I want to tell you: THERE IS A GOD WHO LOVES YOU AND HE WANTS TO SAVE YOU. The proof of His Love for you was on the cross. This God has a law, we do not keep it, we sin, our sins condemn us, but still, even if we are imperfect, God is merciful, because this God sent his Son Jesus Christ to this earth to save the world, Jesus is the Son of God, Jesus was the one who perfectly fulfilled the law of God, HE pleased God. When Jesus was here, he did good to all and healed those oppressed by the devil, he performed miracles, signs and wonders, the blind saw, the deaf heard, the dumb spoke, the lame walked and the dead rose again, because God was with him. Jesus was a man who stretched out his hands to those who had fallen and did not step on them. Jesus came to save and seek what was lost. Jesus is the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, this Jesus was rejected, offended and condemned to death and death on a cross, but this is where God shows us his love, in that Christ died on the cross for our sins, he died for us, it was an exchange, he suffered condemnation in our place, and after three days God raised his Son Jesus Christ from the dead, because death could not stop him, for in him there was no sin. Jesus Christ conquered death, He conquered death and today we have hope, God now announces repentance to all men. JESUS CHRIST is the Judge who will judge the living and the dead, what GOD is now announcing to all people is repentance. Repent of your sins, turn from your sins, believe in Jesus Christ, you cannot be saved by your good works, only Jesus can forgive your sins and save your soul, believe in him today, repent today.

Had an Oakland frame Model TT rear end, Model AA motor & trans, and ultimately a huge Twin Cites tractor radiator to help with overheating issues. He ran it for about 40 years. I used to drive it when helping out around his little spread. The Model TT brakes were shot and were simply disconnected so you didn’t want to let it get up a head of speed, which it easily would. He even rigged up his own 3-point, power takeoff and sickle bar mower. Great video! Stirs up memories.

Maybe in the future you could potentially make a second series in your youtube channel that deals with restoring such classic and beautiful cars like this car. Like maybe you could show us your whole restoration of not only the entire engine of the car, but also the chassis and maybe even the transmission. Or maybe you could even show us on the putting of the frame of the other model a that you state that you possess at the moment. Heck I may even want to see you in some other restoration projects once you are one with the model a doodlebug. Whatever is the case of your choice to restore first, I would like to see you make another series in your youtube channel. I really would enjoy it. P.S I just subscribed.

This guy is great. A meteorite could crash into his house destroying it, and he would STILL be glass-half-full.

FANTASTIC 72 years and it still started with a little help. Today's vehicles some have trouble starting after a few months. 👍

Those Model-A's are tough old beasts, but even that start impressed me. Very well done.

After watching some of these videos I'm convinced you can bring almost any machine back from the dead with the right knowledge and enough determination.

Of all the guys that revive old junkers, you have the oldest and junkiest by far! And that is AWESOME!

You've gotta' put this "ol' man" back together! It doesn't have to be pretty, but damn man this is a jewel! I can't think of anything more inspiring than rebuilding this forest find and riding down the road and around town in it. The truck deserves another life. Enjoyed the video - you reminded me of my good ol' days of finding "basket cases" and putting back together!

Interesting vid! I know there's great satisfaction in making old machines run again. There's still rare detroit steel out there in barns pastures and salvage yards just waiting to be reborn
