Many thanks to our family, friends and the skilled craftsmen we’ve been privileged to work with along the way.

• Ora Landis – Schwalm’s Babbitted Bearings, Inc in Stasburg PA worked with us to rebuild and strengthen the car for the rally. Ora ended up finishing what must be one of the most durable Model A’s in existence!

• The employees at Coker Tire worked with us to select the very best tires and tubes for the rally.

• Pete Kellis at Iowa Muffler was a great person to help us with exhaust modifications and running board mounts for our two jerry cans.

• Al’s Downtown Auto Upholstery reworked our front seat and made side curtains in record time.

• Troy White at Ford & Garland installed our rally computer and GPS locator system.

• Village Blacksmith in West Des Moines provided excellent plate mounts.
