Thank you all for your help. I will try.... as soon as winter is over (to cold now for my old and stiff bones). Thank you again ... Have a merry Christmas and stay healthy :D

Thank you for your info. I will try that . Thank you so much.

Thank you for the try. Maybe i did not speak correct (sadly not my fathers language)... i need to know regarding front window ( windshield) . i do know about door-windows. Thank you

Or is there a chance to take the frame of the front window apart without taking the top part of the frame away from the car? Thank you

I will have to take out the front window, as the frame is rusted. I am a little insecure how to.... ( I tried "search" but didnt find) Opening front window to the max, shows 6 screws in the top ... they might hold the hinge, but once i unscrew they loosen (some hidden nuts ?), but wont come...

While driving, there should not be contact between bearing and fingers. Make sure you have some free play in the clutch-pedal before there is some drag. I doubt you will find new fingers to fit your plate. I got 3 (Model-A) pressure-plates and all parts are different (not interchangeable)...

Thank you for your kind help. In common i would take out the rear too, to work at the clutch.... What i didnt tell , is, that i decided to switch engines too. Actual engine (50.000mls ) is still running strong, but has some minor probs i will try to figure out about ( Im old enough and there...

Thank you Brent Good suggestions and i will check/clarify once engine and gearbox are out. Last hours i tried to find the dislodged spring without disassambling the engine :) I unscrewed the 12 bolts of the pressureplate to push it backwards and have a look in front of the pressureplate...

Engine of my 29 is in the car for about 50`000 mls and as far as i remember the clutch is about same age. Last weekend i had a clutch failure while driving and managed to drive home 30mls without use of clutch (without any Stop) Investigation clarified, that one of the springs left its...

I mechanically cleaned the channels now, but to prevent myself of more soldering of radiators, i kindly ask Guru Bill Williamson to explain about : "Proper periodic BACKFLUSHING" .Thank you in advance.

I lately opened (Dremel) the top of my old radiator. 80% of the channels are clogged which might be a reason for overheating :D . Attached pic (into the top of the radiator) to make visible what Bill is talking about.

Camping close to the boarder of Czech Republic in summer 2018. On tour with the 29 Tudor and the early Qek camp-trailer on the hook.

I am with BillCNC. Cerakote on my carb since about 8 years ... PERFECT !

The rivetet version is not to be rebuilt !!! Once you see damage , there is no doubt... Test (if you see no damage): Hold the U-joint at one end and shake it. Once it wobbles without resistance and you hear noises.... ITS TIME TO REPLACE ! The "new" parts to be sold by the vendors are not...

We frequently cruise along Rhine-River as this is about 1 hour drive to get there. Nice surrounding and nice people/tourists to meet there, but lots of traffic. We never met any other "A" or "T" while cruising and sadly it is a VERY rare event to meet an other pre-war-car on open roads Have a...
