I already offer the service hear in Ontario. People usually don't like the cost associated with shipping. I still do it on the side.

I am in Ontario Canada and have the shoe arcing machine that grinds off material so that it conforms to the diameter of the drum. Measure the drum, set the dial to the diameter and run the shoe and linings across the machine and presto chango brakes that fit the drum.

An old time mechanic in Ontario told me back in the 80"s that Ford of Canada painted their engines grey. I have no way of knowing what shade of grey it might of been. Probably the same colour of grey the Model T engines were painted.

I do not know of any paint chips that are available for the Canadian colours. You may want to check with the Canadian Model A Foundation to find out what information they have. www.cmaff.com

The front bumper does look flat, maybe 28-29 bumper brackets are installed. Rear bumpers are from a 28-29. Something weird about the light switch/horn rod, it should be down more recessed into the steering wheel. If it was me, I'd be getting rid of that copper fuel line and getting a proper...

I guess I should have asked how far out the bottom does the horn rod stick out for the spring & spider to sit properly to engage the light switch.

Is there a way to determine the length of the horn rod to fit my car? It has the later style steering box with the letter F on the outer side.
