    Preheating of the engine

    I had a 55 VW and sawed of most of the shift lever. Winter came and I had to leave the bug in low if I expected to go anywhere the next Wisconsin morning

    4 blade vs. 2 blade alum. fan

    I lost a blade from a 59a engine in a 46 ford. Luck was on my side as the blade went out the bottom of the engine/radiator space, cut a lower hose open. The fan was a standard looking fan but I had never looked it over for cracks.

    1934 mechanical brakes 'vs' model A' style

    My first car was a '39 standard 2door that had cable brakes. Since that time I have spoken to several Early Ford V8 owners that had owned '39s with the same set ups.

    Engine failure - high speed running

    All my A engines are set up to have the pipe going into the crankcase. Henry thought it was a good idea.

    Off subject transport needed

    My buddy Ken bought a V8 60 engine and ****** in Medford OR and needs to get to the Ventura CA area. No rush. If you know of someone.....Ken Walkey is a 300MPH Club member and builds his own cars. Thanks, Art

    Good joke!

    All new chevys will be painted green so as to hide in the grass and watch the fords go by.

    Do rings rotate?

    Not only 2 strokes. Early 500cc singles like AJ's had rings pinned.

    Bert's Model A

    I see that someone mentioned that they are not the cheapest. This is a great hobby for at least 99% of us. The price of our toys pales next to having a good source for new and used parts, someone that knows what they are talking about on the other end of the phone and actually reads the Barn...

    Seat Belts again

    About a year ago or so, there were some posts discussing a seat belt design that turned a 2 point anchored seat belt into a shoulder belt design. I tucked the address of the maker away somewhere and I guess it's gone. Can anyone remember anything about the thread? Thanks, Art
