Can he convert a 6 volt to a 12 volt?

I’m a little late to this conversation. My wife is getting me some 550R19 radials for Christmas. She’s ordering them from Summit. I’m reading the conversation on metal stems versus rubber stems with keen interest. What are the advantages v. disadvantages of each? We drive quite a bit...

I’d like a copy of that video if they are available.

Not a bad idea.

Could the knocking be at your shop door? Sometimes I hear knocking when Im working on my A. Put out a sign that say, "Gone Fishing". Might fix your problem.

Silly question-- are all A's the same length?

I love going to shows to see my Model A buddies, but I am more of a driver than a shower. At shows people sit on your fenders and stand around wanting to tell you about their muscle car they are restoring.

Model A's were out on the roads today in Alaska.

I did an 1100 mile trip the end of last summer by myself. In Alaska we each carry a club roster with everyone's name and contact information on it in our cars. I've never had to use it but if I had an issue I know someone would come to the rescue. If I were in the states I'd carry a similar...

You can only drive one Model A at a time. Two cars are twice as much money to buy, twice as much to insure, take twice as much space to store and take twice as much time and money to keep up. We're in this hobby for the enjoyment not to feel like it's work. One car is very very enjoyable. Is...

48 mph. I get great mileage and my engine lasts many many miles. Its not just about how fast it will go, its also about how fast it will stop and perform an evasive action if needed.

Well that picture pointing the wrong direction is frustrating...

I wanted to follow up on my post. i think the suggestions given were sound. I did go with a 20 foot enclosed. I upgraded to torsion axles and more interior height. I also upgraded the flooring to a synthetic floor so I can easily wipe up oil spots. I think it will serve our needs well. I...

I think Carl hit the nail on the head. Mine happened to come from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

I ordered the seat springs and backrest that's made for tall guys. I'm 6'2 and it worked out well for me. Not as comfortable as the cars but way better than stock springs.
