After receiving high praise for his built-from-scratch E9, Mike decided that he needed something that seemed a little less – well – “simple.” 聽Recently, he completed the restoration of a 1928 Ford Model A… and popped a BMW engine into it.
Of his search for his next project, Mike told , 聽“All that mattered to me was that when I saw it, I had to be inspired. Whatever it was, it had to speak to me.” He knew he wanted to work on a late 1920’s or early 1930’s model car, but he didn’t know what type. Or what, exactly, he’d be doing with it.
After scouring Craigslist for the car, he eventually landed on the 1928 Ford Model A.. or rather, the crudely held together frame of a 1928 Ford Model A. The infamous Model T had been in production for nearly two decades, and the Model A was introduced to revamp automobile sales. 聽The vehicle was over 80 years old, and had seen better days. But it made Mike excited, and that was – after all – his goal.
