Re: Model A Books I'll give ya $20 for both.

I'm 34, 35 in may. Does anyone here live in north central florida? I need a buddy or two that has a project car or atleast one they tinker on. I'm disabled so I'm home and bored.

An easy way to see torque's usefulness is in a diesel powered semi. It has many times more torque than horsepower.

Cam duration and better flow through the heads and intake do increase torque but they mostly increase horsepower. Increasing bore and stroke increase mostly torque. Torque gets you moving and to me is a bit more useful than horsepower. The tricky part with increasing stroke is geting the right...

The quick way is never even a good way. I have rebuilt and even built engines for both normal and racing use and doing anything the quick or easy way will always come back to bite you in the end. Like my dad always said do it right the first time and you won't have to do it again later.

Some people have very "hard" water or have water with a lot of iron. Those in that situation actually should use either the premix or buy bottled water. I have seen a lot of clogged radiators and bad thermostats because of lime scale and rust.

Seems like I seen one somewhere for $4000 seems a bit much though.

Sure am glad I live in Florida. :D

I was thinking of showing the car also but If i had the added tail light and seat belts I would think that would put it in the modified class. I don't really care about winning a show I just thought it would be fun to enter it and see how my work does. Since I plan on doing all the work myself...

That's the way here if you try to use hand signal's people look at you like your stupid and then run into you and blame you for the accident since you didn't have working turn indicators. I have Lyme disease, I had it for several years undiagnosed so it led to many issues. I have severe...

Thanks for the pics I like the look and I see the third brake light is barely noticeable when not in use. My point exactly I'm only 33 but for some reason I'm the only one that knows what a hand signal is around here. How much does the overdrive change the feel of the car? I really want to...

By the way I know you can use hand signals for turning but I live in Florida and no one knows them down here.

I am trying to plan ahead on a Model A build. I have to wait about five years for my finances to get to where I can begin building a garage and gathering tools. Then probably another year or two to find the model I am looking for. I would like to do a 30 to 31 town sedan. But will take any...

It can be done but it requires modification of the gas tank.

If shirts are ever done I know a good company for it I used them for a forum I created for my brother.
