This is my now 16 year old granddaughter and I about 9 or 10 years ago. She was like my shadow back then. Everywhere I went, she was close by, especially when the Deuce was involved. Good memories for both of us.

SOLD I have an early 28 Rumble Seat Roadster for sale. Serial A1519 which should be around the 2nd week of production in December of 1927. One of the oldest 40-odd still in existence. Older restoration, great driver. Has logged many trouble-free tour miles the last 15 years. Good paint, top...

I am having a hard time finding the correct paint code or formula for the straw colored wheels on my '31. Anyone have the magic numbers that would be willing to share? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Middle TN. I'm just down the road from you in Mt. Juliet. I moved here 10 years ago and love it! Plenty to see and do and a very active old car scene.

I should add that neither of these cars are concourse quality show cars, nor are they street rods or (gasp) rat rods. They are built to be driven and enjoyed and that's what I do with them. I have the utmost respect for those that stay true to the early Fords as they were when they left the...

Thank you all for the information and advice. I have a '29 Roadster with correct title that belongs to the car, that has a different engine and is on an original, but not original to this car frame. I'm not trying to counterfeit anything or do anything illegal, but I want to "marry" the body and...

Can anyone tell me the height of the letters and numbers on 1929 Model A engine and chassis numbers? Are they the same at each location? Thanks in advance for your help.

Fortunately I've never had to use it, but I've had Hagerty for several years and have always found them to be top notch to deal with. Courteous, knowledgeable and helpful folks on the phone each and every time I've called upon them. I have my cars garaged in a different state than where...

I used to own an 8-N, and have seen a few of these conversions over the years. I believe there was a "kit" marketed at one time to convert to them to V-8 power. Not personally my idea of the best use for a flathead but to each his own... they are interesting. I've rescued many a flathead from...

Well said Old Henry. My wife and I just had a similar conversation just this morning about a comment left on one of her facebook posts. The point there being that this applies to many avenues in life; people with different interests or values often find it necessary to be critical of folks who...

Thanks for that 32phil. I will be sure to check the cable as well.

Thanks to you both. I'll check them out.

I'm looking for some sage advice on repair of the SW speedo in my deuce. It started vibrating big-time at speed and before I could get pulled off the road the needle popped off. I'm thinking it just got dry and may have partially seized up. I disconnect the speedo cable to prevent further damage...

Pat/Ohio, just wanted to compliment you on a beautiful car, and wish you well with your health related issues.

I was 15 when my granddad told me one Saturday morning he wanted to take me for a ride and we went to the next county where there were FIVE model A's lined up at a car lot. He knew I loved them and we looked at them all and he told me to take my pick. I ended up with a '30 Tudor for $300. That...
