It's not really a saving problem, more of a storage space issue. Garage is already maxed out, and doors are only 7', an enclosed wouldn't fit. I'm in a residential neighborhood lot, so no outbuildings, no room to store a trailer. I was towing with an open U-haul trailer. Haven't looked into...

Exactly! And the more the roof bulges, the faster the air flow, the faster the air flow, the lower the pressure. The lower the pressure, the more the roof bulges. :eek: Lather, rinse, repeat. Hoping I can find some kind of workable cover for safely open trailering on the interstate. :confused...

Open trailered my '31 Coupe to a car show in Iowa a couple weeks ago. Headed down 35W interstate at 70mph until I noticed the soft top roof starting to "bulge" and "balloon" at anything above 60mph. Tried to keep my speed down to 55mph the rest of the way, but I don't like travelling 15mph below...

Bought my 1st Model A couple weeks ago. Previous owner replaced the drums with new cast iron about 400 miles ago. I have put about about 20 miles on the car, began to notice a pulsating brake pedal and significant "surging" when coming to a gradual stop. Raised the front axle, and I can...

Great tip! @Marshall, if you're willing to cover packaging and shipping, it's yours N/C. ;)

Better photos. Does this help...?

I tried to "Google image" search, results were questionable. Seems to be in good shape, just want to make sure it's the correct one.

Thanks for the tips and suggestions everyone! With the help from a member of the local Model A club, I pulled out a few parts to keep as spares and/or "travel backups". The rest are are going to Diastole for the Model A Coupe restoration he is leading with a Boy Scout troop in Tennessee. 7...

Thanks for the tips! ;) I highly doubt I'll ever use these, will be donating to the local Model A club (if they the don't already have them in their tool inventory).

How about these...? :confused:

Found these in my boxes of Model A parts...?? :confused:

Gracias!! ;)
