Thanks for answer. Every year we hold a Classic Car event here in Switzerland with about 500 vehicles. We want to reduce the organization effort with a SW thanks to which people can enter all their registration data themselves.
Hi Seth
Thank you for asking.
On the front backrest I found 3 screws. I haven't found the attachment on the rear backrest until now.
I hope I will be successful with my re-upholstering an send some pictures to this forum. Not befor January.

Hi all
I'm re-upholstering my Phaeton. I didn't find any instructions for dismantling the backrests.
Can someone explain to me how to dismantle the backrest?
best regards from Switzerland

I would say 250 to 300 miles per day. Last October, my wife and I we drove our Phaeton 1930 from Peking to Shanghai (ford.hubacher.org). Per day about 300 miles. Little bit too much. With stopping, talking to people, taking fotos and all other activities I think 200 miles are enough.

Hi Bigdave

Thank you very much for your input. That could really be a reason.
I will try to make test drive with very slow rpm and look what happens.
At the moment the conditions are not good for test driveing. We have temperatures blow 0 centigrade and some snow.
But better wether will come...
Hi Steve
Thanks, yes I did until now the same story as you some years ago. T took the inspection cover off, but I did not see the source of the leak. I am looking now since about 8 months and was not able to solve the mysterie. This year I was with my Ford on a Europe Trip for about 3000 miles...
Hello James
First, congratulation for your informative web site.
I try not to send the crankshaft to US because this is very expensive. Alone transportation and reimporting, customs and all is about 500 Dollars, without any work or material.
What I can not understand is why it does not leak if...
Hi friends
I will try to answer all mentioned points in one reply.
- fill tube and cap are clear. It even leaks without the cap.
- no pressure in the pan. Even a small plastic bag over the filler tube does only breath.
- oil level is half on the dip stick, not overfilled.
- we changed already...
Hello friends
My Model A, has a very good and strong motor. But on driving it leaks oil out of the flywheel housing cotterpin hole. If I let run the car in idle for about one hour there is no oil leaking out, but if I am driving it leaks about 0.15 quart per mile.
The motor was completely...
