Jon Halsey and the 1928 Model A Roadster pick-up It, too, had a gravity fed carb, but the tank was between the engine and the cowl - so never had a problem going up hill Comments re article 67019: Self imposed speed limit with Ford automobile By Jon Halsey Life's Lessons learned early on. In 1957 Jim Vaughn and I bought a 1928 Model A Roadster Pick-up from an elderly farmer who had it in the back of his barn and wasn't sure it would even run. We towed it home, cleaned out the rats nests and chicken "leavings", got it running and had a blast in it. The Model A also had a gravity fed carb, but the tank was between the engine and the cowl. I don't recollect that we ever had a problem going up hill. Two years later, when Jim and I both said yes to Uncle Sam, we struck what we thought was a shrewd bargain. In 1957 we paid the princely sum of $100 for that bucket of bolts. After running it practically non-stop for two years and having a great time doing it, we were elated to get our entire sum back when we sold it for just what we paid for it. It didn't take too long after that to learn that I definitely was not of the entrepreneurial or business caste. "Child of God" was definitely NOT one of the names thrown my way when I tried to brag about what we had accomplished. - Jon Halsey, Knifley, KY This story was posted on 2014-04-30 14:05:30
