Excellent work, KZread must have been hiding it from me for a while. For future reference, the Titebond II is water resistant, according to their literature, and the III or Ultimate is waterproof. You can also hide those seams with putty. I appreciate the video!

Thanks for sharing this amazing video. I grew up in Northern California and I always loved driving around and exploring gold country. I can smell the air just from watching this video. I’m hoping to buy a Model A or B in several years and explore the Midwest where I’ll be moving to start a family.

Always push the spark lever up and the gas lever down a little. If you don’t push the spark lever up you stand the chance of breaking the starter spring. You can turn the chock knob a little this will make it run better you can tell by the sound of the engine

62 Galaxie vs 65 Fury? We had one of those Galaxies for a few years. In about 1968 the heads were rebuilt which did not stop the excessive oil burn, but it was less. It had 100k on it and the engine was about as sludgy as this Fury. For the Fury - A set of KYB shocks all around and a tightening of the steering box usually makes a big C body Chrysler a very happy driver. I think I used the Dodge 1/2 ton style of rear KYB shocks as they have a longer rod travel. They usually ride and handle better when set at the highest recommended setting. Set the height before the alignment, it changes the geometry if the height is changed. FYI, there is a bit of rear steering in the Hotchkiss design rear axle with leaf springs and articulating shackles. With the anti dive, anti squat, and anti roll geometry that Chrysler engineered, they make great highway eating road cars.

Paul Shinn channel is a great channel with loads of info on the Model A. Those ar such fun cars I myself is thinking about getting one I would really love a 1932 ford but those things are so expensive and hard to find a good one because many were used as Hot Rods and still are today but the modal A is really cool.
