Selling my A, need a bigger car for now. 1931 Ford Model A coupe with rumble seat. Frame up restoration about 6 years ago and driven very few miles since. I purchased the car last October and have put about 600 miles on since then. Engine was rebuilt during the restoration and I installed a...

Not sure but I think what ever a 31 came with. I can out and check, anything I should look for to tell the difference??

When I started driving my 31 A about two months ago the steering wheel had NO play, none, if you turned it a fraction of an inch the front wheels moved. Now I have about 3/4ths of an inch play, that is I can turn the steering wheel that far without the front wheels turning. The car is tucked...

I too use the signal stat with the LED brake lights and the original bulbs in the cowl lights, works great 6V pos ground. The high 3rd brake light by J & L Enterprises is the BEST. It really gets the attention of the texters and cell phone crowd, which seems to be most of the drivers today. Its...

I just bought a set of Lester’s blackwall 550/19 they are bigger than stock but look great and it changed the drivability of the car tremendously, it really goes where you want it and does now not all over the road as before (I replaced 40yr old tires that looked great) . Not cheap $164 each. I...

I have what I think is a repop ammeter that is not working properly. It is at 3 amps plus when the car is off and goes to 18 when I am running the car then when I shut the car off it is at 10 til I tap it and goes back to about 3plus. Are these difficult to repair?

I started out with this frame and running gear for a model T and built this speedster. Lowered front axel, lowered rear frame cross member, HC head 3 to 1 Ruxtel, great driving car. I did the body work, paint, most of the mechanicals myself. My brother in law did the engine, great job goes like...

Thanks Paul I will check out the diagram, let me know if you hear of any other businesses for sale, the one you mentioned is up in the air for now.

Patrick, thanks, that did it put in high and rocked, heard a sound and tried starting it, started perfectly how does that happen? Tom, I just bought the car last fall with this battery in it. I think it is 5 or 7 yrs old, it’s a 6 volt pos ground with a kill switch on the pos. pole, I kill the...

I removed the rear shock today and when I removed the cotter pin and large screw it came off fine but shouldn’t there be a spring under the screw holding the cup down? I don’t have one but not sure I need one.

Lights and horn work great, but... I did just try to turn the engine over with the crank, it seems stuck I can not move it, could the started be jamed??

Started the A up today and it cranked over slowly but it was about 30 degrees so not too surprised, it started. Drove it about 15 minutes and shut it off, attempted to start and it cranked very slooowwly until it would not crank, no start. I put a charger on it for about half hour then it spun...

Great video, I voted, I cant stand people who use a cell phone while driving all over the road.
