    Trrans adapt q.

    When you asked the same question over on the HAMB , you got the same answers, and a whole lot of bull as well. I gave up there because all the others wanted to do was argue the finer points and semantics of various transmissions without actually having any of the knowledge which you asked...

    Anyone ever weld A wheel?

    Given the information in Bill Williamson's post , and that you believe the wheel is original to your car, is there a possibility it has cracked because the brake drum /hub (to which this wheel was fitted) has been replaced with the incorrect later part?

    How a Model A Engine Breathes.........

    A cynic might say, Henry was in the auto parts business, he sold you a car cheap so you could buy parts from him and he cold make a profit. Having no filter sure sells a lot of rebuilt exchange engines....i.e you buy a new one and give him back the one you bought before, so he can get it...

    Can a pick up haul a T?

    You can easy haul what you are looking at. Just tie it down good and pump your tires up to max allowable pressure. My pickup isn't that modern, its a 1988 C1500 shortbox it only has a V6...but it hauls big *** loads every month. "] parts for T were under it in the box plus other stuff. I...

BUT Coker makes the Firestones, they are the same price direct from Coker as buying from Summit, sure there is no freight from Summit, but Coker probably has a dealer...

    Need a piston(s)

    There's plenty of Kiwis in Jolly old England at the moment all coming home in a couple of weeks with the Thugby world cup. If Tony's pistons don't pan out, you could slip a couple in with the silverware :D. Some Rugby fans luggage is a better idea though, Someone will know Marty, he is...

    Mike Davidson at Flatttack Racing uses a GM CPU for his fuel injection set up. Sells it with a researched basic Flathead advance curve. He will loan his Eprom burner out with a $500 deposit (fully refundable ) if adjustments are needed. He may well be happy to sell you an Eprom already set...

    Berts front spring shackles

    Tell all of us, if they lasted 30 years it has to be a better fix than the new ones that break. Lots of repair and restoration stuff we all did 30 years ago might seem a little hokey nowdays, if it has lasted 30 years it has passed the test of time!:D
