Thanks. I should be able to figure it out from here.

I got this 1930 Model A Truck as a basket case at an estate auction. I'm working on putting in together and I'm running into some mysterious pieces. I have these 2 pieces of wood that seem to be part of the assembly of this truck, but I can't figure out where they go. These pictures are of...

I recently acquired a 30 Model A pick-up from a estate auction. It's a bit of a basket case, and the person who started on it passed away a few years ago. I have a lot of parts that I'm not sure how it all goes together. I'm trying to figure out how the cab mounts to the chassis. I have a...

Thanks for all the help so far (I'm sure I'll need more in the future). It turns out I got a 30-31 truck (no title). That solves a lot of problems for me as far as what I need. I have a friend in the Missouri Valley Model A Club, which is a chapter of the Model "A" Restorer's Club. I'm...

I just acquired a 29 Model A pick-up from a estate auction. I'm sure I'll have a million questions in the near future, so here's a start. It needs front fenders. Will a model A car front fender bolt up to a pick-up? I heard they were larger to accommodate bigger wheels, but I'm not sure...

Thanks, Chuck Dempsey. That video was very helpful.

I'm working on all the wood for the interior on my 30 Model A. I'm not sure what to do with this piece I have pictured. I don't even know what to call it. It looks like it used to have maybe leather in it or something similar to staple to, but I'm not sure. What do you guys usually do with...

John, I think that might be the answer. If I an get that bottom part bent up to a 45 degree angle, it might fit into the groove of the regulator.

Here are some pictures that I hope will explain what I'm talking about. The black metal part is the glass channel and the shiny metal part is the window regulator. The wheel of the regulator is not a very good fit in the channel. Is this normal?

I recently got a 30 Model A tudor sedan that was somewhat incomplete. Some of the things I had to get were regulators and glass retaining channels. It seems like there is a lot of play when putting the channel on the regulator. It doesn't need to be slid on from the end, it will just go on...
