Thank you, I have old habits, I used to race formula atlantics and F2000 Pro, both very fast open wheel racecars. In those days (back before the computers and the paddles) you never, ever, touched the clutch once you leave the pits. Your hand had to be very fast to move from the steering wheel...

Thank you.

Thanks, I love my driveway, and my mountain, my neighbors are coyotes, bears and other wild life, perfect :) The Model A feels like it was made for these roads, it loves it. Wow 1964, I was not even a US citizen then, just a kid hoping to stay alive in a shitwhole country. America adopted me...

Thanks to all you guys, we come here a lot to get info etc, but don't post much because we have so little to contribute, but I am happy you enjoyed the video. This is a great place. Cheers Paul

I hope I am not breaking any rules by posting this video link here. If I am then I am sorry in advance. We just finished the main work on our 1929 Model A. When we got it it was already wonderful, but needed some work because it did not perform at all well. I posted here looking for help...

I don't think that is what I have, mine hangs off the back of the car...

Thanks

Is there a vendor catalog here? I can't find it?

Yes I suppose but I would rather have it new.

My 29 has a rear box, very nice with a leader cover. Well I guess I must have overloaded it, and the bracket that holds it broke. I was wondering if it is possible to buy a new braket? Any idea who makes those? Thanks and cheers

Take the bowl filter apart. Then look up inside the top part. Is there a SECOND gasket (the small gasket at the tip of hew insert filter) accidentally left there when you changed the filter? If so it is cutting off your flow. I had that exact same thing happen to me. I took everything apart...

Backfire can be cause by lack of fuel. check the entire fuel run from inside the tank to the carburetor, and then inside the carb at the filter and the float. I had that happen because an extra gasket was stuck inside the small glass bowl filter. If you get too many big backfires then your...

What a great vid. So nice to see the two of them together. I wish I had something like that to show my son, but I can use the vid now. Very cool. Thanks

If you have a kill switch look to see if it is making contact with the frame under the car.

I got the stainless version, so in my case it is easy to tell. I highly recommend the stainless, it looks great, and won't rust. My car sounds like a sowing machine now, and I am substantially faster. He was a pleasure to work with, he helped me figure out if I had an early 1029 or not...
