    Bugatti

    Interesting. The super-charged straight 8 was a piece of jewelry. I don't know I would put a Model A engine in a Bugatti, but at least they're able to continue driving and enjoying the car.

    Frame spread with F150 ****** in stock A Frame

    Re: Frame spread with F150 ****** in stock A Frame I was happy to find Alexiskai's Youtube video. I went to making my own based off his design since the supplies were all out of stock to buy one off the shelf. Tool worked fine, engine dropped right into place.

    Roadster interior door panel removal?

    Okay, so if I understand correctly, I need to slide the panel tool between the clips and the door and the clips will/should pop out of the door frame then? I have some plastic door panel tools that maybe will work before purchasing more tools. If not, I will purchase one of those tools...

    Roadster interior door panel removal?

    Like the title, any tips or tricks on removing the interior door panels? My panels are in excellent condition so I don't want to damage them. I need to install the button fasteners for side curtains. Nothing positive popped up in the Barn search or on Youtube. TIA

    This May Be The Last Project

    That Auburn is gorgeous. The Roadster is coming along great, I too will be in that position as mine was painted long ago without primer, so the paint is lifting off the body. Truly inspirational, thanks for sharing.

    Model A on the DYNO!!

    It certainly didn't sound stock, but sounded great! I too noticed the extra shift, I don't remember him changing the transmission but might have missed it. Fun video

    Our fellow German Model A friend sold his car.

    I enjoyed Adrian's Youtube channel. Thanks Paul for the update from him. As a young man it is completely understandable to me that life will send you in a different direction as we travel this road called life.

    This is a great loss to our hobby. As hard a decision as it must have been, good for you both for focusing on what is most important for you Jeff and Debbie. Thank you.
