1930 Ford Model A Visits the 2023 Old Car Festival Greenfield Village Dearborn Michigan Part 1

What can I say?  It's simply the best car show on Earth.  Regardless of your place in life, or if you do or do not have an old car, this is far more than just a car show.  From candlelight drives to vintage Model T and Model A racers and speedsters, if it is a 1932 or older automobile that is stock, you more than likely can see it here.  From Stanley Steamers, Franklin, Oakland, Stutz, Pierce Arrow Packard, Model A, Model T, La Salle, Packard, Touring, Roadster, and more, all take part in the greatest car even in the world.

Part 1 of a 2 part segment shows what goes on behind the event from load in on Friday night to things that take place during the day and evening on Saturday.  This video contains a lot of footage of cars that you can see and hear run.

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.

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.
