  • The 1931 Model A pickup engine just keeps getting worse. I thought it would be fun to see if we could get it running even though I have another engine that I am planning to swap into it but the issues with the original engine just keep adding up.

    Great Video. I really haven't worked on Model A's, but you really show the meat and potatoes part of it.

    I'll bet those rings are stuck rusted solid. At least you gave it a try!! You'll have a spare block to for a future rebuild. Can't wait to see it running with the other engine.

      You're probably right. I figured it wasn't worth the time since I had a spare engine. I'm hoping to have it on the road this summer. Thanks for watching.

      @@Maine_A_S -- That would be great!! I've always wanted one of those trucks. Although yours needs some work, it's a great find and well deserving to be put back on the road.

    Thanks for some new content--it's been a long winter! Had a customer pull up in an early 28 Model A pickup today looking to have me match some paint for it. Will probably be at the Dragway swap meet in the next month or two for sale.

    Never seen anyone hone a cylinder with the piston in place.

      @Maine_A_S  Месяц назад

      Yeah. Not really the recommended way to do it but I figured I didn't really have much to lose on this one and wanted to see if it would clean up that cylinder at all. Thanks for watching.
