Brent glad to see you doing your thing helping someone to get his vehicle running once again. You're the greatest my friend.
Estimado Brent : siempre ayudando a quien lo necesite,tienes un corazón noble; lo que das te regresará, saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷 🇺🇸
Nothing like Henry's Model A to bring a smile to everyone's face. Great seeing grown men giddy over a 93 year old engine start.
A man facing disaster and still available to help someone else is a great friend. And it's great therapy 😂
Brent is just like Super Man!! Nothing will hold him back!!
That turning the key on almost all ways works. Good stuff Brent you made my day.
Nice seeing you back in your favorite environment again. You help made Jeff turn into one happy fella. What a beautiful Model A.. Hearing that laugh once again just made my day. Congrats nice work Brent, as expected.
One step at a time Big Guy . Way to go after the disaster / finding it fresh and still fun to watch . God gave to the patience of Joab and the wit of a young John Wayne . lol Great show TY
>that was music
Great stuff Brent!!! Thank you!!! As my Dad always said " the cream always rises to the top" !!!! And you my friend are rising to the top!!! Side note, looked like Esther's Buick sitting there at the beginning. Stay safe my friend and God bless you all !!!! Eddy
Hi Brent, Nice job! A couple of suggestions: replace the original fan blade with a new aluminum 2 blade. The originals rust inside and come apart(thru hood/rad or you). The water pump end play was maintained by a boss in the head (which is now worn like most all). New leakless pumps sold are made not to have the end play. The modern points are 57-74 V8 ford and condenser. When filling a Model A with oil that has been resting , you pour 1Qt in distributor hole to flood valve chamber, also oiling mains and filling dipper trays for the rods, then 4 Qt in pan. Enough for now. I wish you could have called me, I could have answered most of your questions.
Good to see you doing your thing again. I’m sure Jeff appreciated your help getting his Model A started. All he needs is a good Fuel tank. Thank you Brent for the video ! God Bless 🙏🏻
The shot of you two driving those Model A’s down the roads… so cool!!!! I really want to build a 30 or 31 model A Tudor sedan before I die.
Ah, the good old days when cars were simple and easy to repair. Nice to see the old timer's on the road.
Man I love your laughter Brent... an equal mix of optimism, joy, and can-do! You cheer us all up man! But fancy a man not knowing what "schnerf" is... I knew right away what you meant.
Great revival Brent.Almost a lost art working on the old stuff.
What's not to like? 5 window Model A, that's a runner. Side mount spares are a bonus, too.
I absolutely loved this episode!!! Brent, you are a true friend! Loved the ending with the two Model A’s on the road! Loved the drone aerial shots as well! Miles of smiles!
Seeing the model t and the truck cruising down a dirt road was the best part of the video.
Brent that's why people love/like you so much, you will always help out anyone in need, you can fix anything on wheels. That car he got sure was in great shape. You should make a sign that says; "Fix your car, $60.00 an hour, includes drive time" until you get your shop rebuilt again. I bet you would get a lot of calls. Anyways, thanks for being such a nice guy and taking us along for the ride to learn and add to our work portfolio with this knowledge on 1930 6 cylinders. Take care my friend.
The smiles make this so worth the effort , coolness factor 100% love your help Brent!
She looks to be in good shape particularly restored
That's awesome kool I love old trucks and cars and I'll catch ya on the next one.
That is a beautiful car. Glad to see any old car restored and put back on.
Glad to see you out and smiling Love your videos Especially the drone and music very relaxing to watch
Hey, there’s only 4 holes to fill, filler up and let’s go for a ride. Two great guys and their rides. Thanks Brent for taking me on your journey. Like, share and or go help a buddy get his ride on the road. To 🍺 good friends.
Warms my heart to see these pieces of history rolling down the road again 👍❤️🙏
So glad you having a good time and back on the horse again!
You're a great man, Brent! Way to help out a friend! Jeff's a great guy two! It was fun watching you two work together! And very happy to see Jeff's Model A finally on the Road!
What beautiful piece of history. My Dad and Mom were born 5 years before that Model A was manufactured.
Just about Bennett Buggy material... but Two Bros. came up with a WIN! Thanks for sharing fellas. Miles O Smiles going forward🏁👍
That's a good looking car and this man has an awesome shop very large love it
To see a couple fella's working on an o'l Ford, to see it come to life, sweet. To see the two of them cruising down the road way kool. that the owners share with us. way kooler. Be well.
Great car Jeff, and I know thats not the first car you two worked on together over the years, great job, thanks for letting us watch!
I have no doubt that you will get it running my friend
Thank you so much man. Couldn't have done it without you. I'm all good with leading the cruises with this guy....slowest goes first..lol
Always nice to see a flat motor come to life
Good to see you smiling and having a good time helping a friend. Taking time away from the homestead and recharge for a clear way to get stuff done . Have a blast my friend
It is such a treat to actually get to see a beautiful classic like this brought back to life AS IT WAS BUILT and not being hot rodded and chopped up to where it is nothing more than a rolling pile of scrap.
Watching the both of you going down the road is just like being back in the 1930s. So cool 👍.
Happy to see you back in your element Brent. What could be better than bringing this old Beauty back to life, particularly when its helping out a friend? 🙂
I bet that was a fun time getting it going. And the little A is nice car. Kimmie was thrilled to sit in the rumble seat when we visited Jeff and Dave. Starts so nice!
Great show Brent! The sweet drone footage puts your video's above the rest. Hawkeye 😉✌
I built a 30 2 door sedan , i can feel your pride & joy while u ride the A. I love the music in your video but missed seeing your dog riding along !
MODEL A FOR LIFE!!!! THATS ALL I WILL BUILD, AND I TOOK MINE OUT FOR A RUN TODAY, FEELS SOOOOO GOOD TO DRIVE IN A MODEL A!
Made my heart hurt. Man I miss my A. Thank you Brent and Jeff.
Brent you are unstoppable put your armor on and keep on going. This was a golden share. Thank you Ester and Brent. Take care.
Paul Shinn KZhead Model A specialist nice guy even Vice grip garage went to do a will it run on a Model A and they got it running and then he went to vice grip and helped him out. 😮😅❤🎉
What a sweet little A and your truck looks great cruising with it, nice work Brent and Jeff, I see miles of smiles in your future with those two at the root beer stand
Nice to see Brent at the activity again, if it was anyone else she would be crying over spilled milk, mas Brent was to put his expertise in favor of a friend. Congratulations. Thank you my friend
So cool when they are stock! A piece of history. Nice work.
I know you have to loosen the bolt on the timing cover until the pin drops in for tic then drop the distributor in and fine tune it and start it up and tighten the bolt in the timing cover
Hey Brent! Love the content love to see those old ones get back running. Nice job guys!! Stay safe😀😀
Just simple little wins now make the body feel good again. That touch of laughter will soon be your normal trademark again as you take the small things and let them start adding up. We all care a lot Brent
you have got to fall in love with that original fan lol love it
Brent, you're a gem. You spread happiness, inspire and enlighten.
Your knowledge of old and/ or anything worth turning a wrench on is impeccable. Kudos to you sir.
I enjoyed you and Jeff working together, when Jeff freaked with the smoke was worth the watch.
Great video! I loved the footage of the two Model A's cruising together!
That's neat to see those old cars bring back to life. Good stuff. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
Wow guys! Great Collab! Fantastic seeing the unbelievable cooling propeller (I mean Fan!) LOL So cool!
Ah Brent, that was such an enjoyable video, on so many levels, thank you .
This little ford puts a smile on my face ..love it..little car huge character👍🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just WOW! I love seeing these cars back on the road. Great video.
These old vehicles will always be more than the new ones will ever be 👍
this is a great little car! amazing shape. its funny how slow a 6volts system turns the engine but them old motors didnt take much to start. thats why they had a back up hand crank set up. when tuned right if they turn over once or twice theyre running! awesome video!❤
so true, these cars need to be driven , enjoying the feeling of old times ...
I like this Brent guest starring in the shops of friends thing. It will do until the next shop is ready to go 🙂
2 Classics, running down a Dirt road among the Fields... Looks just Plain Old "Right"...❤❤❤
That cruise looked like a blast!
Good job getting that model A back on the road! I had to laugh when Jeff couldn't open the door from the inside. My 99 year old mother had to show me how to open mine from the inside. Lefty
Having fun is the most important thing of all😊
My first car was a 1930 Model A Ford with the rumble seat. I got the car from my older brother when I turned 16. Those old Model A's would go anywhere; loved the way I could do a 'U' turn in the middle of the block. An old man showed me how you can pull up on the gear shift lever, and move it out-of-the way to make more room for necking with your girl friend. A lot of good memories at the A&W Root Bear meeting up with all my friends. As the years went by I traded the car to my Dad, and later he gave it to my younger brother. Still all original but showing some wear. He did a body-off restoration, was President of the local Model A Club. He sold the car after 10 years - I suspect/hope it still exists.
Supa cool to see the old girl running and 🚗driving Brent and Jeff you the man Brent 👍 , stay💪strong and healthy man
Glad to see you out there doing what you do best Brent! Working on cars and trucks and helping others!
Nice to see you enjoying yourselves, doing what you do best!!!! Well done!!

Beautiful car. That was awesome you helping Jeff get it on the road. As much as I love Hot Rods, that car is awesome stock. Hoping one day I can build my own. - Jamie

Great to see you some what back to work. Nice job guys. Beautiful car. Can't wait to see more videos soon Brett. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.
What a cool shop.
I imagine the landscape you were shooting in hasn’t changed a great deal since the 30s, it felt like a great ‘what it would have looked like’ type video!
It’s nice to see a all original one back on the road 😳one nice freebie 🇺🇸💯💪👍
Beautiful to see another one on the road , another feller happy to be earthbound at 40 mph with many future years of satisfaction . Thank you for the video , a Halfass Kustom fan . Stuart in Ontario...........
45 makes one feel alive drive'n a model A from yesterday.
GREAT JOB GETTING HER RUNNING
In 1970 I spotted a 1930 Model A coupe in a gas station, while I was traveling home from school in a bus. The car had a for sale sign on it, so I told my father about it when I went home and we drove back to have a look at it. My father ended up buying it, and originally told my mother it was going to be my car, that ended up only being an excuse so she didn't get upset at him buying another car. He ended up joining the Model A Restorers Club and kept the car for many years and drove it for club outings.
Great to see you back working on a vehicle again helping out your friend.thanks John from Arizona
Glad you can help get another one running.
Dang!! What a shop. You need a shop like that!!! But, I'll still continue to watch you regardless. Keep it up!!! Good stuff!!!!
Thank you for having us along.
Nice job got it Run ing
Good to see you two together again on Jeff's project. I've been following SR for some time now.
Great video helping others with the hobby ...love these old cars !!
Its great to see old car saved JG
Awesome video, as usual! I love those two(1 car and 1 truck)!
Great ending Brent NICE Cruise
Yeah, C111, she'd love that...like to the moon but never coming back! LOL Esther is obviously a smart woman! sitting down in the shop with you guys and when things get serious and could go boom she goes upstairs where she will be safe. And then, when it's safe to come back down she films from the far side of the shop. She's no dummy, no siree, she's gonna live to be 103! LOL You could have titled this one "Two dorks and a Model A" but I would have to say, pretty cool dorks. This video reminded me of playing with cars with my Dad, good stuff Brent and Esther! The only thing that could have made this one any better is a cameo appearance from Pablo and Buddy. Great video guys (and girls)! Be safe, stay healthy and forge on with your awesome attitudes and smiles! God bless you all!
