Hi, can anybody tell me where I can find a new correct style radiator for a 32 four cylinder? (I prefer not to use a street rod style reproduction). Thanks, Frank

Thanks, I will just make a cover like the one posted in this thread. I have a lot to do besides that, but I did get matching old wood to repair the areas of the wood floor and a couple other places. Yes, in time I will get to all that. Right now the tank is drained, I'm working on wood...

Thanks Mike, I will take that mirror bracket off again and take pictures. It is a factory made bracket with twin ball ends that was made to hold these two mirrors. None of us oldtimers in the hobby have ever seen one before. I did not see any makers mark, and was not expecting to, really. I...

Awesome, Thanks ! I can make that ...I see that upper periscope opening must be a place for a straight pipe to go thru the firewall adapter which is still there. Thanks a lot! Yes, just working on wood this winter, not running it. The gas tank insides...I cannot believe it ...it looks like a...

Thanks, I bought it without really worrying about the year... Not even sure how we came up with 31, maybe the radiator shell design? I can get the engine number. I am not taking the body off for any repairs....what else can determine the year? here is a recent, but distant pic that shows...

Thanks, Terry...hey, did it have a cover? If no that's ok, but if it did, can you recall the shapes? ...like only flat metal or formed with curves like a front fender?

Hi, I bought my first Model A "keeper" this summer. (barn-rust condition, but perfect mechanical driving/stopping). It is a Martin Parry huckster 1931, sold new up near the Vermont border in western/central Mass. (cold climate) The manifold heater is an odd shape that no one around my area...

sold locally...it is gone

____EDIT: THE CAR IS SOLD> PENDING PAYMENT: TO L. in Florida A little history on this car; The car belongs to a friend that does not do internet. His Dad was into Model A's forever and bought this car in 1963. His Dad also ran a Model A shop, and he said this was the best one he ever had...

Thank You, George :) I read what you said about turning the dist and that made me start thinking again. I had this set static timed to the notch which is maybe 6 or 8 advanced. So I retarded it, and also pulled out every-other plug in the firing order after I oiled the cylinder walls. That...

If this is an engine that was not running for decades, it probably has stuck rings or has light surface rust on the valves and seats. I am trying to start a 53 Olds motor in a 40 Ford right now with the same compression, and the same results...not even trying to fire on any cylinder. I've been...

Any advice on how/where to get full time daily driver coverage? Last time I checked with non-antique insurance co's, they would not offer fire/theft. And I though all antique insurance co's won't allow full time use?

I just changed the ad to sell just the chassis without the panel body. The correct price is $1200 for the chassis. It was listed at $2500 as a panel delivery body before, but I can't find a way to change the old price to $1200.
