Mentioning a Model A & Finnish craftsmanship are pretty big clues.. That Model A is seriously cool & the work they do is awesome...

I like how (on the Model A) the chassis brackets, suspension, air cleaner, etc etc are styled to look period-authentic. And the spark plug deception! The other cars, and what you can see of the shop in the background, are also very impressive. Must be nice to work for that level of clientele.

Exactly, every detail is chased to complete the illusion, the lathe work on the steering linkages, the three toed brackets for the chaisis brackets... Details!! And yes having clientele willing to pay for the work.... Just amazing.. "The Armies of our ancestors were lucky, in that they were not trailed by a second army of pencil pushers."
