FUGLY inside AND out. When you build a GREYHOUND (race car) you don't make it look like a GOD DAMNED PITBULL. No wonder it FAILED MISERABLY. I would not bother to collect this atrocity. It is all yours.

I can't help but be reminded of just how much gear boxes have improved over the decades. OK, maybe that is a straight cut racing transmission. Lovely engine, shame about the rest.

Knew it was a Pegaso from the thumbnail. I have always loved those cars since I was a child and saw one in LA about 1977/1978.

Wonderful. This is why I subscribed.

What a special car! I loved the bits of history of Monaco.

They did a great job on lighting the car especially on the interior 👍😎👍

The Pegaso doesn’t get the respect it deserves compared to the Italian, English and German cars of it’s era. Thank you for featuring this important piece of automotive history.

Have we seen this very car at Goodwood?

Wow you really went deep!. Thank you. I would love to see this car in Newport, I have being there twice. You will be able to see another two Pegaso Z, one cope another spider, in the `Museo del Automovil de Salamanca' in Salamanca Spain. Wonderful museum, wonderful city. Love to see the really old Barcelona number plates, that is why it has B.

I have been seeing this very car a lot lately. Very cool.

Sounds like the transmission has straight cut gears. In the lower gears it whines like an old dump truck.

Always appreciate these special and rare (& dare I say interesting) cars.

Gone forever. Now you can buy a Volt.

When I saw that bike in the showroom I thought worth every penny!I had no Pennie’s at the time.

🎶Henry’s made a lady out of Lizzie🎶

LFG CARS AND CIGARS IS FINALLY A THING

Ahh, the stereotypical summer fashion of Newport. 🏖️ 🌺 ☀️🦈🏎️

This gentleman gives a nice tribute to the Ford Model A. They are still very popular today, so Henry got it right.

My wife and I owned one as our only car for 8 years in the 1990s.

Hi Donald . This perfectly illustrates the amazing progress in car technology . Thankyou Donald .

loved watching every detail of this video, thanks! so true that, this Mansion in California, would be at least $100M if you can find it...!!

My dad owns a 1931 Model A and Jay Leno's whipping boy, a 1931 Steudebaker Dictator, priced $500 and $850 new respectively. When you drive them one after the other you really understand what you get for the money. The Ford is a charming and fun car to drive. But even the entry level Steudebaker with its smooth 70hp straight 8 engine is a much more capable car.

What a STUPID, Disappointing video. Glad I did not waste all 15 mins to find out that you idiots did NOT even TRY to drive it in the lake!

Always a great show.

In HS I had a 1929 A Pickup with a Chevy small block...

My dad owned a Marmon. He let my uncle drive it and my uncle, mother and dad ended up overturned in a ditch. It was a long time ago before WW2.

I drive my '28 Phaeton in cold weather without a heater and it's really not as cold as you might think. However, my daughter tells me the back seat passengers are in the tundra. Always fun shows, thanks for showcasing the Model A. That's a nice one.

Had a 51; regrettably, I sold it. I'm going to have to acquire another one now.

That hat is so appropriate for a Model A ride!

Great review, Donald, of one of the most ubiquitous automobiles ever built. And what a great example, looks like it drives very well! Thank you for this wonderful video!

he is interested in austin cars

I drive my late 1930 Model A Deluxe Roadster several times a week. Supermarket, pizza, hardware store and people just light up with smiles.

A guy in high school 1967 had a 61 T Bird that got the name Rototiller. This happened when we got stuck in the mud and the T Bird rototilled its way out of the quagmire. From then on it was the Rototiller. Every time I see a 61 T Bird I think yep, a Rototiller.😊

When they came out i was driving an iroc. Zero interest. 115 hp?? Nope. But 10 years ago i saw one on Craigslist and went to look at it. Test drive i was hooked. All the years of fun wasted. We have a 91 with the hard top and custom interior. Everyone wants to buy it. Nope. And i still have my IROC too.

The quality of the Audrain videos is outstanding. I would like to point out that Henry Ford indeed truly changed the world, and made possible, for better or for worse, the autocentric economy that has defined the prosperity of the past century. Although he later became intensely anti-union, although he was basically guilty of what we would call hate crimes against Catholics and Jews, nobody can deny that he changed the world, and gave everyman a chance to even make the economy, once he or she could afford a motor vehicle. I wish more had been said about the efforts of Edsel Ford, a car guy from birth, who was driving at age eight and as a teen was regaled with Bugattis and Bentleys, who had struggled for years to improve the Model T, later struggling to get to build the forties Continentals, but finally gained Henry's approval to complete the Model A project. A very human and admirable man who ultimately was destroyed by his father. I think Henry was independently working on a risky X-shaped power plant at the time of the A. But no mistake, all the Fords were car people through and through. Henry actually drove racing cars he built to publicize the marque but were dangerous as hell==he nearly was killed and abandoned that practice. Grandson Henry "Deuce" was portrayed in a bad film about Carroll Shelby as a bureaucrat par excellence which he was, but also as an automotive cretin terrified by motor cars and Ken Miles' demonstration drive--in fact, like Vincenzo Lancia and the Aprilia, this big stocky man stuffed himself in a little prototype Ford Cortina with stickshift and disappeared for an entire day in London only to return enthusing, "This is a great car!"

The Ford Model A is a wonderful automobile. My mother learned to drive a Model A Windsor. I remember it in my grandparents garage.

Interesting that the body is a 1930, but the dash looks like a 28,29. Could it be a very early 1930? Henry was famous at using up old inventory.

I always enjoy your solo driving videos no matter what the car. Cheers

The early Plymouth (1928-1931) Model Q, U, and PA were all contemporaries of the Ford Model A and much more advanced. Of course, the Ford Model A was more advanced than the earlier Model T... but it was not at all a market leader in engineering. Plymouth introduced 4-wheel hydraulic brakes to the low-priced field (1928)... followed later by all-steel construction and independent front suspension. The Model A is better looking than the early Plymouths which is its only advantage.

Love the colour guys ! Reminds me of Magenta , a colour used by Triumph in the mid 1970's . Thankyou 😊

Hi, thanks so much for touring in a Model A!! My Dad had them back in the day, first car I every drove! I finally have my own, it's like a long lost family member! You can take a modern car for a spin around the block, but you are "Driving" a Model A, double clutching, manual adjust the distributor, mechanical brakes and so on! That is a beautiful roadster, wishing you many happy miles with it!!

Donald, your music in the opening sequence it fantastic .

Um, need to take the whiskey bottle away from the editor....

What drives better--a 1930 Ford or Chevrolet? Is the Ford's lack of a 6 a real problem?

Is black or Washington blue in color?

Hello. Always liked the A, have not owned one yet. Some day.

Mr. O is dressed for the occasion as usual. This car is a triumph in American automotive history. Beautiful condition. Very nice. Thank you sir. ❤💙💙♥️👍😎
