- So I've been kicking around a few ideas on how to build the Yard Art 1928 Model A coupe and came up with a few different options. I personally wouldn't mind doing it up in any of these different ways, so in this episode I'm going to let you guy's make the decision on what type of build this old Model A gets!! Also, I promise it will not become a rat rod....... If you need help locating the survey, go to Rotter's Garage page. Click the Community tab, and the survey will come up. Happy Voting.....

Me being an "originalist", as you aptly put it, i'd love to see this restored to how it rolled out of the factory. But with that not being an option, i'd go with option №1.
I oddly like a car looking its age but that is just me.
YES!!! How it rolled out of the showroom!!!! YES!!!
Paal Aaseng Stubbrud, it sounds like he's already made up his mind to bastardize this old classic. As another "Originalist" it would have been better left right where he found it than to screw it all up like it appears he is going to do. It sucks since there are so many cars out there that are nowhere near complete and restorable as this one is.
@@richardcline1337 So sick of these hot rodder schmucks. There's plenty of chopped up, pre-ruined frames. These idiots need to stop destroying perfectly good cars.
Are you serious the car was falling apart I see it as a restoration project I would not have kept that completely original I would try to keep the look but and all that damage. PS I hope I did not misunderstand what you said.@@richardcline1337
Option #1 all the way! I would love to see this old engine get back to its former glory, especially because of all the years and neglect it has survived. If that's not feasible for whatever reason, option #2 would be the next best thing I suppose. But either way, I subscribed and I'm looking forward to see what you'll make out of this beauty. Keep up the good work!
Option 1 would be very cool! That engine is almost a century old so seeing it running again would be almost romantic
I'm all for optopn #1, retain the original engine and build it with vintage style speed equipment but leave the body stock. The flathead V-8 option is a close second choice though.
Option 1 is what I favor. I love to see a neglected vehicle come back to life. In my opinion it does not have to be a race car, just a great driver quality car.
Option #1 that old rig deserves a new lease on life. I say, get it in good mechanical shape and drive it!
Option #1 would be the coolest thing to do I think. With only so many of these old girls to restore, making them as original as possible seems like the right thing to do....
I sure love the old school option #1 but it's your car to do as you please. Regardless of how you go forward I look forward to updates on this car and love your channel. Best to you and yours 👍
This car is a part of history that will never come again. Preserve as much of it as possible even if only cosmetic. Option #1
Hi from Australia,, I vote option 3, she deserves a new lease on life with a special heart, love what your doing & can’t wait to watch her grow irrespective of which way you go.
As well as a new lease on life I reckon it’d look fully sick!
I vote for option 1. I love the idea of running it just as the factory made it. I also love the idea of a 100 year old engine still running. It gives me chills that it runs so well.
You rock, dude. I love that you're giving us the choice. I'd love to see option 1 happen, but I'm gonna love watching the process unfold any way she goes. If you do use a different engine, I'd love to see another project incorporate the i4, maybe a kart/buggy build. I dunno. That little engine just wants to live.
I don't see a poll yet for voting, but I will be sure to vote when that goes live.
Go to rotters garage page channel, go to the community tab and the poll is there. Thanks!
Option #1 definitely
It was really excited to get going again, it was itching to get out of that flower garden
It's like a Model A Herbie
Matte black would look sweet on it
Option #1 for me please. you see tooooo many people tearing up these old cars and turn them into something that has already been done, just different colours, you don't see too many people restoring them. Great Videos By The Way.
Option 1, restoration all the way !
Option 1 that ol girl coming back so well deserved to be brought back to classic glory.
I've been watching for a follow up video for this model A. Great find! Since that powertrain is pretty much all there and the body looks workable, I hope you do an original build on this. There isn't many video series of complete A restore out there, I think it would send your channel views to outerspace.
Option 3, and one combined. Id make a hotrod with the original powertrain. I know it wonr have much power but itll be cool
It's rare & complete . I vote option 1 . But it's your car , your build . Options 2 & 3 sounded pretty sweet too . I just like the way it looks , it has so much character , as is . That she still runs , with minimal work done to it , says a lot about how well it was built . Nice find , nice save ! Love it !
I vote for option 3. Those baby Buicks are very nice. Knew a guy with a 64 Buick special? Yellow, convertible with black interior with that 300 nailhead. Please no ratrod.
Option #1 Please! Motor and body were born together; let them come back to life as a team once again...
Love your channel dude! Would love to see one of the V8s in it. Flathead would be my first choice I think, but judging from what I’ve seen you’re the expert and the Nailhead would look really cool. Really excited to see what you do with it, been missing this kind of content since we lost Roadkill in the UK. Do your thing man, we’re with you all the way, I think you’re onto something good here.
OPTION 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anything else would be a crime against humanity.
Option 3! Option 2 already got me wanting that in a car but hearing you have that engine completely blew my mind, les go
I'm going with option #1. Not because I am an originalist, but because I would love to see that thing be brought to life with the engine it originally came with. That would be a car with a great story.
I choose option one. would love to see it fully restored as original. Thanks for including us in the choice.
I think the "Choice" idea was a farce. It sounds like he had already committed to bastardizing this classic car.
All 3 options will be cool no matter what ! The green machine in the corner by the door is the definate hot rod car I think. Considering how many projects you have to go in the shop I would keep the original baby model A original as per. And then focus on the rat rod next for the bigger power! That’s just me tho . I’m just thinking about keeping all your great ideas in order and not having an conflicting ideas that might be frustrating to you later on. The old guys would love the model A original along with the story . And the rat rod the younger generation will be impressed with that machine. These are merely ideas from my mind to yours. Hope this is helpful. Keep up the good work .
Option 1 all the way! That car has such a cool story and a great look just the way it sits. So glad I found the channel!
Option #1 But I'd love to see it restored to how it was fresh out of the factory which also could make it a lot more valuable but that's my opinion
1 all day long. i love hotrods but yaknow seeing these classic cars in their original form is just hard to beat for me
Go with the nail head plenty good power, would like to see you smoke the heck out of the tires, a really good white clould burn out hahaha 😆
Gotta say even with the lure of the flathead, I think option #1 is my choice
I actually love the sputtering sound of the engine as it is but I love the Flathead also. I don't think there's any bad options here. I'm somewhat of a purist but so much of the original car is already gone that I think this is the perfect platform to go wild with
Option # 1 please , i just fell in love with the way that good old motor clearly wants to live on .
I love how you are giving the vehicle a second chance at life. I think option 1 is the best option to bring it back to its original style.
This shows you how strong and well built these old Fords are! With a little TLC...they come right back to life! Thank you for saving her!!
Option 1 because so many of these model A’s have been chopped up and turned into hot rods and it is more fun to watch stuff on original model A’s at this point
I agree, option #1.
Option #1 for sure! Why throw away that 1928 motor? You mentioned all the fun you could have with the stock car.
I love it the way it is, please restore it, not too many left
Full Restore to its former glory keeping it as factor as possible would be amazing to see
It would be really neat to go to town on it and take it back to original.im glad I found your site.Ted from BC 🇨🇦
I'd love to see the baby nail head motor in it.
I would love to see option 3 the nail head
It's really a good candidate for safe drivable Survivor car, I don't think it would take that much it's not like you're going to drive it on the freeway or anything like that.... jump over the Cold War Motors and see what Scott did to his Model T which was made around the same year as your model A. now he put a lot of work in his but you don't have to put as much as he did.
Definitely option 1. You don't see those original engines anymore.
In a 1933 Popular Mechanics is an article with the headline “Build a simple supercharger for your Model A Ford.”
New subscriber. I would like to see option 2. Love that you got this to work. Thanks for sharing.
1 definitely. U can always find another straight body and put a v8 in it but finding an original engine that runs in a 100yrs old car is a chance that shouldnt be missed imo. I think it will also keep a lot more value
Since the original engine is still in there and running and the car is reasonably complete i'd say go for option one :) good luck with the build!
Option 1.5!
No chop - stock everything, but any of the V8s in it would be sweet. This way the car can be converted to all stock if you or any future owner wants. But you can have your V8 fun now!
Admirable work to bring out the past. I assume option 1 is harder, but at the end, the most rewardind in all aspects. Pay no attention to unhelpful comments and keep up the good work.
just wondering.....economically its not better for you to restore it, as close as it was originally, if you decide to sell it later?
Option number one I’m not an originalist but it would just be cool to keep it as original as possible.
Just discovered your channel. Love your commentary style - balance between welcoming diplomacy yet calling out comments when necessary. New subscriber now and I’ll be sticking around.
Joe from New York I'm building a 30 coupe watching how go about things is great to see keep up the great work and content be well
Amazing as rough as it is starts right up IMPRESSIVE!!
Option 1!!!! Side valve V8 idea is ok, later model V8 and T5 tranny NO bloody way!!!!
Option 1!!!! Original running gear wheels etc side up the body a little
and just have some fun with it, it is NOT a race car and NEVER will be!!!!
Geez man i would Kill to get my hands on a Model A Coupe, original, and just work away fixing it up.
At least it was Not a poxy SBC Chevy you were suggesting!!!
Don't change your presentation or style. You are similar in style to Mustie1 and that guy is AWESOME. Stay like this and just keep doing more.
Like all the options, do what ever you want just along for the ride
YES...Nailhead w/ 2 carbs!!! Slight Chop & Slight Channel !!! Cool RIG ! ...Newk from Kentucky
Just to go against the grain a little bit.. knowing most people will say full restoration or Rat Rod.. I say give it an off-road style. I think that’s be an interesting twist. But what ever you do I know you’ll do good by her so can’t wait to see.
Interesting. I hope to follow your build.
I have an original 1931 Ford Model A Tudor(since 1970) but I really enjoyed what you did(I did the same thing in the 60's).
I voted for option 2 but You do what you want to do with the car. Its yours. A great video and I really enjoyed it especially when it smoked you out of your garage.
Man I know any way you go it'll be badass. Thanks for the update!
Since the car is already still so original, I vote for option 1. Then you'd have an O.G. hot rod that could be converted back to an original car as you said. Yeah, option 1.
I personally like option #3.
I agree with your answers to the questions! You know it best! I would do option 1!!!
I am split between Option 1 & 2. Love the build ideas!!
Re-build it! You have a piece of history in your hands!
Option 3! That thing is screaming “turn me into a hotrod!”
Model A build with the fenderless highboy, original drivetrain or option #2 with a flathead, looking forward to following this build!!
Option 1 would be my choice. But it's your car do as you please. Thanks for being a proper nice fella.
Use the nailhead and give it some cam! If it were mine, screw the 9-inch tho, an a-body 8 1/4 is an HD rated axle, and is well known for being low resistance🤷🏼♂️ I don't think it could get hurt in something that light. Highboy style is perfect for a period early gasser too😎
There was a magazine I read years ago that had a shootout between build and they built this MONSTER nailhead that put down almost 600-some-odd HP and placed fourth out of 18 engines or so. That is an awesome mill!
Option 1 without a doubt, don’t even need to hear the others. Engine deserves to be brought back
Option #1 of course, you barely fit in this thing with a tall roof, and you rarely see these things unchopped! I mean any old V8 would be cool, but I like the "Highboy" look on these cars.
N⁰1 is unique N⁰2 has been done multiple times and N⁰3 is more practical for highway driving
definitely option 3 nail head with possible tri power set up
I'd definitely go for option 1. The thing's lasted nearly 100 years so I feel it deserves option 1! Indeed, I'd go with a complete original restoration, but since that's not where your interest lies, then at least for me option one has to be my choice.
Option 3 for sure. Would make a nice hot rod.
Option #2 sounds Cool to me!!!! Thanks, for the entertaining videos !!!
Please do option #1! If the engine was completely trash I would differ.
Option 1 with whitewalls added
Option 1.We all want to see it
Hey new sub here. Love your channel. Really enjoy the low key vibe. Looking forward to enjoying the '28 project videos. Cheers.
Option 1! If you repaint it too, it might look nice in maroon and black!
I have one, 1928 Model A in A+ condition here in Germany, rebuild from my Grandpa
Would love to see your car in better shape
The sound of the Model A ... love it on every startup
Greetings from Hamburg, Germany
I love the idea of old school original hotrod idea, I love the flat head hot rod idea and I'm reeeeaaaaaally partial to Buicks... But either way I'm excited to see this project progress
id like to see it get customized honestly. maybe flooring and a good roofing and interior as well as a cleaning video.
I'd say option 1 man that'd be pretty badass
Well all 3 options work for me I do flathead or nail head add juice brakes
I have back ground in all 3 camps but for choice 1 you should go through it 100% mechanical if you wanna drive it
Let’s be different and drop that Buick nailhead into that model A. It sure would be different and a real
joy to drive. Next choice is use that 36 engine. Do not restore, just make a daily driver.
I know it's a bit late to vote, but I just found your channel and I hope you go with option 1. To go full ham, you can even go with the original way metallic paint was done: with crushed fish scales.
I choose option one. would love to see it fully restored as original. Thanks for including us in the choice.
I vote option 1! Option 3 would be my second choice.
i like old cars that look original like rebuilt i would like to see it look original take your time dont worry about about screw ups you can fix it while you're doing it
#1 with polished heads. Sweet paint job
like op 3 with the nailhead love old skool hot-rods.
Considering how complete it is, I think I'd try to get it as original as humanly possible. It's a great find regardless.
I'm just catching up with you on the videos about this car and I know you already have the votes, I'm just glad it's gonna live again and I don't really care how you do it, bone stock or a tube chassis power glide blown hemi, it really makes no difference to me as long as it hits the ground running
I changed my mind! Go option 2! That way you get all Ford, all old school original look, and can change up at any time without too much fuss! Love those old flatheads!!
Fix the doors, the trunk and leave the patina. It took 93 years to make it as cool as it now is! Rebuild the drive train to make it a reliable driver. It's option # 1 for me! At the car shows there would not be another one like it. By the way, I have a 1929 Coupe with original drive train, it's a driver not a trailer queen.
Wicked you got it running. I’d keep it as is but running sweet on the road
