John, I've got to hand it to you for your motivation, knowledge, and work ethic. I also have a Ford 1926 Model T although mine is a 2-door. I've had it for almost a week. It has not been run for more than 5 years and I'm working on cleaning and getting it started. I am so appreciative that I do not have to do a complete restoration. Thanks for the educational video.

I’m working on a 1923 Model T on my channel. It’s interesting to see the differences

Henry Ford or rather his son definitely made some big changes to the model T in 1926. My great grandfathers 1917 model T will be seen in a future video.

This is so cool!

Very nice car, you guys have a lot to work with and can just freshen up most of it and replace a few critical things like the plate glass and thrust washer in the rear end. Probably not much wear on the engine. Looks like a fun one to work on!

"Freshen up"? ROFLMAO.

When you get a new battery cable, make sure it's for a 6 volt car. A 12 volt cable won't provide enough "poop" to turn over the engine.

@@deeremeyer1749 If you have no clue about automobile electrics, ask a good professional at your favorite auto parts store. And make sure you tell them what voltage battery you're going to use that cable on.

Very Nice Job On Your Video !!!

Good luck with your project. Just finishing a 1931 AA which was a bit rough like yours, just about ready for paint. A good source for parts is Snyders Antique Auto Parts, Good people and fast shipping.

Thanks for watching!

Why are almost all these comments so aggressive? Lol chill. *Constructive* and *kind* criticism. Awesome video btw :)

With any restoration, you've got to do something everyday. Stay focused and keep pluggin away. Good luck! Great automobile worth saving. If I make a suggestion, don't take the whole car apart at once. It's like eating an elephant, one bite at a time. Start with the chassis. Get it running, then work on the body.

I would like to see the wood blocks.

had a 27 the chassis engine mint retored body was almost done i went home one weekend and my brother had sold it for a 1000.00 i was just sick

why?

suggestion: as you're videoing, try to move the camera more slowly so it's not so "jumpy" - almost made me sea-sick as you moved from place to place. Love what you're doing. thumbs up!

Thank you for the friendly suggestion. I just purchased a tripod for my camera a couple days ago.

You didn't mention any wood rot in the body and the doors seem to close nicely. Judging from the roof bows it all looks like it stayed out of the weather for the most part. +1 on not swinging the camera so quickly. These things come naturally after reviewing a few hours of your own footage.

T's were all black to keep things in the assembly line uniform until the A's came out and tripled production

I have a running 1925 motor and chassis for sale if you need it, or anyone else.

Supposed to be working and recording not doing the work and showing what you did,we like to go along and learn as you work

That "project car" you probably "invested" $2000 in minimum is only $20,000 and 2000 "DIY" hours from being "valued" at upwards of $10,000 "running and driving" and "cosmetically-restored".

Don’t wave the camera so much. It makes me dizzy. Stationary camera would be better.
