OLD SCHOOL TRICK - FIRE & ICE Still haven't seen our latest video? You missed a cool trick (literally!). We used the freezing Michigan winter and a hot grill to install our new ring gear. Yes, nature was our shop press!
Once that was done, we got right into installing and adjusting the pressure plate and fingers to ensure the perfect pedal feel. Catch up on the Mitchell Swap here! 👇 https://youtu.be/6if7-THY59k
The weather didn't exactly cooperate for our Spring Dust Off event—The annual Model A “Toot ‘n Tune” was a bit too cold and damp to spend much time poking around under the hood—but that didn't stop the fun.
We spent the morning staying dry, swapping stories, and making a serious dent in the donut supply. A huge shoutout to Bryan for joining the ranks today!
Sometimes the best "inspection" is just seeing who shows up despite the forecast. Here’s hoping for dryer roads and warmer sun soon!
"We’re going deep into the driveline this week on Epic Restorationz! 🛠️
Part 2 of our Ford Model A - Mitchell Swap Series officially arrives Friday at 7:00. The Mitchell Overdrive is finally meeting our Model A's differential. In this episode, we’ll walk through the work required to swap the pinion gear and install the Overdrive. We’re one step closer to having this 'A' back on the road!
Epic Restorationz is officially moving into the modern era! Tonight at 7:00 PM, we’re kicking off one of our most requested series yet: The Mitchell Transmission Swap.
In tonight’s episode, we’re tearing down George’s 1930 Ford Model A and saying goodbye to the original 3-speed. We walk you through: ✅ Prep and Removal of the Rear End ✅ Removing the original style transmission from the bell housing ✅ Prepping the bellhousing (Throw-out bearing & return spring!) ✅ Attaching the brand-new Mitchell Synchronized Transmission to the bell housing
If you’ve ever wanted to drive your Model A without the double-clutching workout, you won’t want to miss this upgrade. Plus, we’re setting the stage for the Mitchell Overdrive install coming up next!
It’s a snow day for most kids here in West Michigan, but for us that just means we’re snowed in with a little extra shop time on the Model A! 🔧🔥 We’re diving back into the Mitchell transmission and overdrive install, with some big progress coming up. Can’t wait to show you how this setup completely transforms the ride. Stay tuned!
Guess what? Just because the Model A is tucked away for the winter 🌨️ doesn't mean the work stops! The barn doors might be closed, but the wrenching is still happening.
We've got THREE big upgrades planned for her this winter, and you are NOT going to want to miss these.
Tune in tomorrow (Friday) at 7 PM EST to find out about the very first upgrade we're tackling this winter and get a sneak peak of what’s ahead! You'll be shocked at what's coming. 👀
Don’t forget to adjust your timing tonight and while you’re at it…check out the newest episode of Epic Restorationz on YouTube at https://youtu.be/ponUaWu0_DM?si=PEf6O...
Blasting complete! The Model A body is finally down to bare metal, and it’s looking great. We uncovered evidence of a few past repairs along the way (of course 😅), but overall, she’s solid and ready for the next stage of the restoration.
