I met Dean at the 2023 Old Car Festival in Dearborn, Michigan. Dean had three very impressive Model A's on display. I got the pleasure of interviewing Dean as we walked around and discussed each of his unique displays.
When I am not making images for my normal (if there is such a thing) bodies of work as a photographer, I make plenty of fun videos for my Model A or other related videos from that time period that you can find on this channel too. Be sure to check them out.
As to gear, I shoot a variety of full frame Nikon cameras and lenses. Most everything is shot on a tripod to produce the sharpest images possible.
You can see more about me and my photography at my website here www.kensmithga...

My 1930 Ford Town Sedan has eyebrow fenders and still has the original interior. It's certainly worn but it still is functional. I have rebuilt the driveline, suspension, and tie rods, installed a modernized Model A motor with oversized intake valves, insert bearings, and a high compression head. I also have a lightened flywheel and V8 clutch. The car comfortably cruises at 50MPH but I've had it up to 60MPH. I have also insulated and installed sound deadener which has made the car enjoyable to be in even at 90 degrees.

I'm 73. My dad's first car was a '31 A roadster... he had stories. Wjen I was a kid, early teens, he bought a model A school bus. He had me drill out and cut some rivets on it... I learned a lot about cars in general hanging with my dad. I have a 1920's Klaxon horn on my '78 Econoline... I got it from my dad.

VERY interesting. I'm 75, and when I was barely congnizant from 4 or so on up to about 6, Dad had a model a light truck with small flatbed, and an AA dump truck. TWICE I got caught with my toy hammer breaking out the headlight lens to "see the little man in there with a lantern" that made those headlights work.

@@kensmithgallery4432 I really did! I've been a mechanic for 32 years and counting. I've even replaced a water pump on a mid 30s model T. That car was much faster than I expected with that flat head 4 cylinder. Good times. If you ever get a chance to visit the Ford museum in Detroit, it's spectacular. And did you know they used to use rope packed in grease as the water pump seal?! Surprised the heck out of me!

Thank you for sharing the history of your Model A Fords. Love the trip down memory lane! My first car was a 1930 Model A coupe with a rumble seat! I bought the car from my older brother, who had the car repainted maroon in color, with white pin stripping. I had the car re-upholstered with white Naugahyde. Other than that, the car was original. I did however, install dual carburetor manifold with single barrel carbs for a short period - top speed went from 60 to over 70 mph - way too fast for the old spoke wheels and mechanical brakes! When I almost rear ended a Cadillac I decided to install hydraulic brakes. My Dad stepped in, he thought it was a mistake to not keep the car original. So I passed the car on to Dad. In later years, my younger brother did a frame off restoration. He sold the car 10 years later. I like to think the car is still here in Oregon.

I enjoy your videos! I don't have a Model A or even a Ford of any kind but I am chief mechanic on my wife's 29 Plymouth Model U touring. Its a lot like a A but much harder to find parts for.

The Compressor is real cool. I had a Neighbor Shelby Cook in Taylorsville the used a Model A Engine to run a Chopper mixer to make Hog feed. As far as the track drive look up Great Salt Lake Utah history about one I believe had skids instead of front wheels for crossing mud / salt flats. Like most things I believe the Salt destroyed it before it's time.

@@kensmithgallery4432 When someone says "they don't build things like that anymore" exactly that is meant. Today they can only build these ugly looking plastic cars and all look the same. no more quality. A Ford Model A/T.. will run in more 100 Years and longer. Today cars are full of expensive electronics, build to die in a few years. I really would like to own a Model, but too expensive to bring one to germany and the ones here are high price. So it stays tonbe a dream. I have a 1983 Ford Capri with a 2.3 V6 that will also last forever if maintaned. These were cars ... not such ugly things build today
