Looking for a good condition autolite heater box that fits on top of the waffle manifold. I have the firewall valve, just no air box. Thanks! Tom

Looking for a '31 sidebowl zenith carburetor. Are there any restorable ones out there?

Hey Bruce, Go to your local hobby shop and purchase some Aero-gloss lacquer based paint gloss black. It comes in 1oz bottles. This works perfect and will not come off with gasoline.

There is a little brass bushing under the steering wheel that may be tight or worn out. It allows your steering to rotate without turning the light switch.

Hi Scott, I just purchased these same tires for my sport coupe. I was pleasantly surprised. They look nice and seem nice quality. For a driver, I am very pleased. Tom

Have you guys seen this? Pretty Cool! http://content.usatoday.com/communities/driveon/post/2012/07/a-ford-model-a-trailer-fit-for-a-traveling-salesman/1

Easiest fix is to put in a new throttle shaft on the carb. As they wear, they leak air.

I'm reading a couple of things here. So after making the marks by spinning the tires and using chalk, we should then lower the tires back onto the ground, and move them forward a few feet to do the actual toe-in measuring?

Should the toe-in be adjusted with the tires on the ground, or spinning free on jackstands?

I love that carburetor sign. Too cool!

Re: The price of tires—Yikes! I noticed that Universal tires are still $99 each. Not sure about the quality though. https://www.universaltire.com/universal-tires/universal-bias-ply-tires/475-500-19-universal-blackwall.html

I love the brown look!

The repro fans are really nice. Don't risk your investment of an off-balanced fan.
