We spent several hours at this museum a couple years ago. It is very nice with a lot of attention to things produced in Pennsylvania. Thanks for the revisit Matt.
Unfortunately the exhaust maxs out the mic on the came and the audio shuts off. We are hoping to do a detailed video on the coupe now that its finished and Matt is driving it almost daily! Thanks for watching -Mike/ITG
Great shots there...riding along side (via the gopro...cool) On a nearly unrelated note... the coupe looked so good in front that FRY visible pump... you need one for your shop (next step beyond for your advertising collection) While there getting very high and hard to come by (Visible pumps) Was walking thru my local scrap yard/metal recyclers the other day I thought of how easy it would be to find "near dimensionally correct" scrap to build a fantasy gaspump. The repop parts market can supply the hard to replicate anchor points like cylinder, globe, tags/stickers.... you do the caveman work AND poof! you got a pump to set inside/outside your garage doors. Anyhoo, standing by for more.
Cool! Make me miss driving mine over this winter! I use my iPhone and usually take my videos by putting it on the pass side between the rear window frame and the wood support with tape- much preferred your view though! Are you thinking of TROG with your car?
Great museum.It's hard to tell from the speeded up video, but it appears that the coupe likes to drive on both sides of the road. It's either that or you like to move the steering wheel a lot. It is a great steering wheel by the way (1939?).
John Ayres unfortunately the camera we were using cut out due to wind noise. We have plenty of other videos of the flatty running!!! Thanks for watching!! -Mike/ITG
Close friend of mine has a chopped 50' Merc. He has upgraded the original flathead with a rebuild, Offenhouser heads, twin Strombergs, distributor & electronic ignition, serpentine belt system & AC, and a GM overdrive auto tranny. Not going to win a lot of drag races, but has the cool factor. I love the flatty V8.
They curate and volunteer at this Antique Car Museum and are very knowledgeable in Antique car history, but they're aren't as well versed in traditional hot rods. This is why they like to have me on the show once in a while to give my perspective from the hot rod side of things. They can talk circles around me when it comes to obscure antique cars. Thanks for watching. -Matt/ITG
This is a perfect example of the east coast look. I love it
I love the channeled no chop look your couple is perfect.
Thanks so much James!

Yes it truly is a hidden secret! Next time you're there hit me up im only a mile or so down the road!
I wouldn't be bored looking over your shoulder hearing the flatty purr instead of that music assisted hispeed-trip 😉😉

I don't disagree! I'd love to find a true vintage one but you're right they're quite salty $$$ wise these days! Someday I'll find one for a good deal!
Cool video
Model A's are cramped enough, then to channel them, I like the body stock
Body is still stock ... the floor isn't. Haha !!! 😄 I know what you meant ... 😊

I was steering around potholes, the roads are crappy during winter time due to the salt and plow trucks! Car tracks pretty straight actually!
I was thinking damn it drives like a bar of soap...lol....
@@IronTrapGarage ... From Ontario Canada, Boy do I understand about the salt and the plow trucks!
I would to have one of these and drive it daily...maybe one day I can contact you for a body.
Didn't care for the music, because I wanted to hear that flathead.
