Cool. When I was a kid we had a next door neighbor at our summer
cottage who drove a Model A to work every day, about a 30 mile round
trip.


My lady friend who used to take me to meet the rich and famous was
from Chester SC. Her uncle was an antique car guy and they had a group
there who just kept swapping old cars around. He had M-A and a M-T in
the garage. We went to lunch in an Elliott Ness 1931 Chevy. We saw a
couple of the other cars they were swapping around. They were all
pretty much stock, either original or restored. He said you could
still buy old Ford parts (A & T) from Sears. (late 70s) but JC Whitney
was his go to guy.
