    30 Roadster paint color help

    Thanks. Marco's site has excellent information; been there several times. I know according to his site the color is Stone Brown but it also looks very similar to Manila Brown so, I thought I'd get some opinions from you all.

    30 Roadster paint color help

    Looking for some help on the color of my roadster. I don't believe the color combo to be correct. I have been working (more like tinkering) on the mechanicals as first priority and may decide at some time in the future to work on restoration. But, right now she's a pretty good looking car; a...

    Please help, any advice?

    I had the same thing happen to me today. Took my Roadster out for a quick trip this afternoon and a couple miles into it and she started choking, bucking and backfiring. I pulled over and she idled just fine but, acceleration was out of the question. It sounded like the fuel was boiling in...

    Manila Brown ?

    My '30 Deluxe Roadster is this same brown color. Does anyone know if this is a correct color? If so, what would the correct trim color and wheel color be? BTW-I haven't purchased my restoration standards yet...soon.

    Title troubles in Florida

    Tried to title my 30 Roadster and was told by the Florida DMV that they would not accept a Bill of Sale. According to them the car had to be titled by the seller and then transferred to me or I had to get a judge to issue a declaration of judgement releasing the car to me. This is the first...

    Tail light question

    I second that! As a "newbie" to the "A" I still read the catalog(s), they really do help answering a lot of questions. My wife thinks I'm nuts reading a parts catalog...but it is informative and makes for a great wishlist, just like the old days of the Sears catalogs and checking off what you...

    Electrical Question

    That's what I thought from the wiring diagram but, it definetly has a third wire...and it is hot. I was checking the tail light area and only had one wire running to the tail light.
