    Fan Belt

    Hello, Need to replace the belt in my 30 Coupe. Anyone have a brand/part # for Advanced Auto, Auto Zone etc. I hate to have to order from Bratton’s & wind up paying more for shipping than the cost of the belt :mad:. thanks

    Does Not Start

    That did the trick! Third good push & heard cross between a ping & a pop. Jumped in & it fired right up. Would have made this update sooner but had to take it for a drive around the block! Where I live that's 20 miles. Thanks all for your input.

    Does Not Start

    Hello Folks, Went to start the 30 coupe yesterday & nothing. No sound, click or anything. Put a battery tender on it overnight & tried again today. Again nothing. Doesn’t even try to turn over.

I have two 14 gal gas caddies & a couple 5 gal cans. There’s a Sunoco 20 miles away in Allentown PA that sells it. I fill up...

    Can Mice Really Get Into A Sedan or Coupe?

    There’s only so much you can do to keep them out. They will always find a way to get in. We used to have all kinds of problems with our camper until I had the Ehrlich guy start treating it while he was out for the quarterly house visit. At the advice of the Ehrlich guy he places baiters at easy...

    Sir, Do you happen to have any pictures of your project removing the tray & moving everything back? Would like to see what’s involved should I decide to take this route. thanks

    Break peddle adjustment maybe

    Thanks! Spent a night or two thinking about bending the shifter to the right about 3” up from the boot & then back vertical. So 2 bends in the shaft or a soft “U” to bring the knob back close to center. My knee would fit in the “U”. My wife is five foot nothing with feet that fit into my hand...

    Break peddle adjustment maybe

    Hello All, I’m a new owner (about a month now). Bought a 1930 Std Coupe. So many questions it’s almost hard to prioritize. I guess the first thing I need to clear up is the break peddle. Everywhere I read how much fun an “A” is to drive but right now for me it’s awkward if not...
