12 year old learning to drive a Model A Ford

[isledalfino]

He's better at manual than me!

[908jaymoney]

crank that wheel

[PhonoboyAD1984]

Well done. Now how about another trip around the park!

[manuelkong10]

Great job!!

[videomanyak1]

Wow!!!

[62battleship]

Nice video ! Kids need to learn and I can't think of anything better to learn to drive then a vintage car. It teaches the basics of machines in general plus the history surrounding thier development and on top of that its fun !!! I would have given anything to have the chance to learn on a Model "A" back in the day ! As to the negative comments posted here, I dare you to say you did'nt make some mistakes when you were learning to drive when you were a kid !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MegaLimera1n]

Cool vid I'm subbin

[unicyclebros]

@1931fordmodela- if i break the engine i will rebuild it because thats how i roll. Have an "A" day!

[1931fordmodela]

but yes you are a good driver. just need to learn from a reall model a owner. seems like teh camera man has no idea how to use a model a properly

[Rudy24430]

@1931fordmodela The primary purpose of this car is to teach this kid to drive. So if he blows the engine or wrecks it well then I am cool with it, the engine is tough and I very much doubt that it would blow by what is seen in the video. This Model A was frozen and wouldnt turn over when we got it, its original and not restored. Its just a car and we are both learning together. Now go back to film school and contine your perpetual adolescence.

[1931fordmodela]

also never bring that right lever down all the way.. and NEVER when about to shut it down.

[1931fordmodela]

3:37... your gonna blow the pistons out of the block.

[hopkins2509]

Wow hes good

[queensplazasouth]

Thats awesome, the oldest car I've driven was a 1954 Cadillac Fleetwood

[duumvir10]

To look at him more 13 years. And his voice was like 13 years. Either the video was shot for less than 3 months to 13 years.

[chironsynchronicity]

Good job! If you can drive a car as old as this, you can drive anything!

[unicyclebros]

@videoaddict2008- thanks for the concern, but i was 12 at the time and a month later I had the double clutching down. And I learned almost everything about the car over the following summer. So thanks again for soooo much concern about me killing the car.

[videoaddict2008]

good driver BUT the car is an old gal i dont like the way he shifts the gears no pause between gears no double clutching. youre going to kill the car if he continues driving it that way.

[101fanofTwilight]

@videoaddict2008 Model A's are very forgiving, and i think since there are a lot still around, so I think that it can take a lot, and there are cars now that don't even last ten years...... and have you even driven a Model A?

[mrcabezademotor]

this kid is a good driver 

[Sevenlocs]

How awesome is it that u get to drive one of those at 12?

[nuccten]

What, no seat belts? No air bag? I also learned to drive on a Model A at this age, so this brought back some memories. There's nothing like the sound of that engine. Thanks for posting!

[CHEVYNOVA70SS]

thats funny but im only 10 o crap i can drive in two more year yay

[fattony252]

 In Sebisquit the 12 year old was killed driving a Model A pick up. Parents beware

[videoaddict2008]

poor tranny grinding gears

you need to learn to double clutch it and take it easy its an old car

[mowat440]

see now i leand to drive a stick on a 1946 williys CJ-2A and i still love that thing

[Waterprincess99]

I think kids driving should have their own car so they can practice on big ones!!

[Sxrillez]

Sweet!

[raejaybigpapi]

Bitterman is my teachers last name. Hmm. Wierd. But I think that is really cool that you can drive a Model A! I heard for some people it was IMPOSSIBLE!

[chironsynchronicity]

Neat driving!

[raelovesyou98]

lol at first i thought he was gunna like slam the car forward XD

[GDOBSSOR]

I really don't understand why the driving age isn't 12... 12 and 13 year olds are way easier to boss around than 18 year olds!

[thecritic2007]

i think its good for kids to learn this you hopefully when he can drive on the main roads the exp will make him a safer driver

[XxAtomic646xX]

lol bitterman

[vasilmetallica1995]

i start driving a car when i was 12-13... now i'm 15 and i go everyware with the car illigaly

[xquailx801]

I fucking hate my manual transmission. I can't drive it well yet. New to it.

[matkovicha]

@xquailx801 Keep driving it, it will become second nature.

[xquailx801]

@matkovicha Haha. I figured it out.

[matkovicha]

@xquailx801 That's awesome.

[fjbutch]

Very impressed mate .... Onya Dad for being a good 'Dad'

[gregwddriver]

Fine job jr. Practice those double clutches and isn't your timing lever still up? I wish my wife could drive our "A" as well as you.

[bigman55434]

This is pretty cool. Lol at 1:09. "What the hell?" The kid does a great job of driving a vehicle made 85+ years before he was born.
