Looking for a company that sells an engine rebuild kit. I've done several searches on this website and Google with no definite results. I have a 1929 CCPU with a stock motor that runs and has lots of blowby. I'm looking to rebuild it, whether that's just re-ringing/honing or going all the...

I sent my fuel tank to my '29 Closed Cab Truck to a local radiator shop to have it cleaned and sealed. They did some work to it and determined that the tank couldn't be sealed due to some thin metal. They told me they use some really harsh chemicals to clean and etch the inside of the tank and...

My fuel tank is beyond repair. I sent it to a radiator shop to have it cleaned out and lined so I wouldn't have to worry about developing a leak. It was reported that every time they soldered a hole, a new one would pop up. I've done several searches on here and on the interwebs and haven't...

I realize we're not talking about aircraft maintenance, but in my experience, castellated nuts are used when a minimum of torque is required...hence a cotter pin to keep the castellated nut in place. A lock-washer is designed to be used with a plain nuts when self-locking or castellated type...

My only advice is to stay away from Howell's. Their customer service is bad, at best. I placed an order almost a month ago and still haven't received anything. One part was back-ordered so they didn't ship the other 2 parts that were in stock that I ordered. After several calls and leaving voice...

If Steve can't get his hands on one and yours is in good shape, should be able to work something out with you.

That is the exact thing I was referring to. Sorry I wasn't able to post a picture, but that is it. I called Bert's this morning and they are looking for the drivers side I need.

Do any of the experts out there know if anyone is making, or know where to look for the 1928-29 Ford Model A CCPU cowl post inner braces? I'm trying to bolt my cowl post through the sub-rail to the frame, but my drivers side inner brace is rusted completely away. The only inner brace I can...

That's the part I was looking for. Thanks so much!

I have a 1929 CCPU and I am trying to figure out the nomenclature of these brackets that go from under the seat riser and bolt to the wood piece that is also the door jamb. Can anyone help?

Trying to find some info on where the rear cab mount holes should be. I need to figure out where these holes are supposed to be so I can ensure my new sub-rails are correctly configured and my cab isn't out of whack as I build it up. I've already look at www.wescottsauto.com and couldn't find...

Thank you! I appreciate it.

Looking for someone that might know what I'm looking at here. It seems on my frame that there are no holes for the rear of the cab to mount to the frame. I put the old sub-rail assembly back on the frame to verify that I had the new sub-rail assembly in the correct location, and everything...
