1928 Model A Ford Phaeton

• Although the Model A is a convertible it was rarely driven with the top down.
• There isn't really enough on the car to fail, so break-downs were rare, although not unheard of.
• From time-to-time, a leaf from one of the springs would break.
• The radiator would leak on occasion, but a soldering iron, heated on the kitchen stove, soldered the hole shut.
• If the winter was particularly cold, the isinglass side curtains are used to keep some of the cold out, but even then the ride is less than comfortable.
