Can We Build A Ford Model A From This Pile Of Scraps???

  • Mike recently realized we have an entire 1928 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan in pieces in our warehouse, and a rolling chassis at the shop. Mike challenged Matt and the crew to attempt to assemble a full body from a pile of parts. There's plenty that could go wrong with a pile of parts that didn't come from the same car and then are attempted to be bolted together. Let's hope the Model A can be bolted back together and Matt can win the bet!!

    Great job! The "Earl Schib" jingle/ad was "I will paint any car, any color for $29.95". And occasionally there would be a$10.00 coupon in the paper. The secret to a real good job was to do your own prep and have them just spray the car. did a lot of them back in the day. The "assembly" you did brought back memories of "back in the day" welding together pieces of late 30's and 40 Ford coupes for "stock cars" .

      george parker I remember Earl Schibe as well .Some people that lived down the street from when I was a kid took their 1967 Chevy station wagon to Earl and they painted Everything .Door handles mirrors I don't know how the bumpers did not get painted maybe they ran out of paint.

    That old Merc was incredible. My father had a white 66 Mercury Montrey with the roll down back window and as kids we would stand on the back seat with our heads and arms out on the back deck while flying down the highway. He always joked we had 440 air conditioning, 4 windows down 40 mph AC.

    I’m really pushing and hoping to get it done and see if I can take it to fall Carlisle along with the 32 Ford truck B model, if I do get it done and bring it to Carlisle I hope to run into you and Mike.
