About 18 months ago I had a chance to buy a Fordor 1932, stock, driver car for $13K. It wasn’t perfect, but pretty nice. I thought I had too many projects and walked away from it. I AM STILL KICKING MY BUTT OVER THIS LOSS!!!!!!!!!!! BUY IT. A fellow told me once that most of his regrets...

40cpe: He does not give much info; it is about 100 miles from me. Close enough for a look; but I have too many projects so will probably just pass on it. Looks like a decent car, but you never know until you kick the tires. Even then you never know. Thanks, Bluestem

If you are right-handed, use your left hand. Retard spark, on T's about 5 clicks. Start at about 7-8 o'clock and pull UP. Let go about 12 o'clock. If you are right-handed and crank with your left hand; this makes your body/arms pull away from the crank when you release. My dad always said...
