Thanks for your answer. In a YouTube video I have just heard that from the AR models were built 225000 cars until June 1928. In 1928 were 11% of all body styles the Sport Coupe. So I would guess, that probably 25.000 cars of the AR Sport Coupe were built. My car has the number 17188. Tom

Hi you all! Is it possible to find out how many Model A Sport Coupes were build of the 1928 Model? Not in the year, just this early model with emergency brake lever on the left side? Kind regards Tom

In my opinion Bosch has now not the same quality like in the past. But this depends on it where the part was manufactured. I already had a bad new blue coil which was broken after very short time. Normally Bosch was the original equipment in all the old Mercedes. But now when I need new spark...

Me too, but Skip said, that he use since 20 years these condensers. Probably he knows what the best is for his coils. I don't know how much micro farads the Napa has. Tom

I got now the information by Skip that for his repaired coils the best are condensers between 0.15 to 0.20 micro farads. And a recommendation for Napa IH 200 condenser. Tom

Thanks, Larry. Good to know. Tom

Thank you for the hint with Boos Herral. I bought in the past already parts from George Trickett, beside me here I have his old catalogue from 2002. Well, here you can get nothing for the V12 Lincoln. A handful are around here. The next time I would need the cylinders for the power windows...

Hi tubman, and thank you for the answer. OK, I understand. The coil was recently restored by Skip Haney. I tried to ask him what he would say which capacity he would say but in the last days I got now answer. Well, if 0.27 micro farad would be ok, I have several options here...

Thank you, we will see. Oh yes, I just see that it was my first post but I am registered here since 10 years… beside the Lincoln we have some Model Ts and As. Perhaps I wanted to ask something and I solved then the problem by myself. Tom

Hello! I know, it is forum for Ford but I hope to get help here. I need new condensers for my 1947 Lincoln V12. As far as I know I need some with 0.31 to 0.34 micro farad. But here I can get just some with 0.27 micro farad. I don’t know if this will work with no problems for the contact...
