After seeing your pics, I wouldn't use them. I've had many custom headers built over the last 50 years, and I wouldn't waste my time putting those on a car of mine if they were free.

I use graphite it doesn't collect dust like oil does.

Zenith Carb #13922 manufactured by Zenith to be a modern replacement for the model A. Totally trouble free, and no GAV to tweek with. I put one on my '29, and I love it. With my fat girlfriend in the coupe it was difficult to be reaching over to turn the GAV knob.

Thanks JW, and Chuck, North Hill Puyallup is much closer than Queen City. Queen City has relocated to Redmond.

Thanks, I'll go see them.

Anyone know of a good metal restorer/polisher in the Seattle-Tacoma area?

Welcome to the barn dirtfarmer. I made bows for my fordor. Mine is a Briggs. The bows are more narrow in the front and get wider as you move towards the back.

The second route is the one I would take in one of my A's. I live aprox. 7 miles from Puyallup...I'll see you there.

Welcome to the barn. Awesome Hemi! The hinge attaches to the wood header above the windshield, Assuming the wood header is still there.

A beautiful Phantom I. I've always loved the Rolls.

I recently viewed a rerun of The Real McCoys and saw the '31 Pheaton (Cal. lic. number LBV 179) used in the series, and am wondering if anyone might know what became of the car?:confused:

I have two A's and a '41 Fordor. The '41 has a factory two-speed rear end, and is a comfort to drive. It would be difficult to choose. Sort of like having to choose which child you would keep.

Re: "What is the most improper way you've used your vintage car?" -Petrolicious I let a Navy and an Air Force veteran ride in the '29 Coupe. Oh how I abused that sweet ride. lol

Re: Manufacturing Mistakes After a career in Engineering, I'm of the opinion that if you want to see something get fouled up, get humans involved with it.

I coach football from July through Nov. and am remodeling a rental house to sell this spring. Been busy as hell.
