    31 Roadster side curtains

    Recently purchased a 31 Roadster without side curtains. I have been able thru a friend to get samples to have them made. My question is this: how far dose the rod fit it the door and should it lock in place and not rotate. Mine stay about 3/4' above the door when inserted and can be rotated...

    Enclosed car trailer for Model A

    The trailer size needs to match the tow vehicle also. Make sure you have enough horsepower to pull a bigger and wider trailer. Lots of wind resistance on the higher trailers. Ask me how I know!

    3rd brush adjustment procedure

    I also have mine set at 3-5 amps. I don't drive at night, but do take long trips. I find this setting to perfect. I don't have to add water to the battery. I don't like to over charge, plus it can cook the water out of your battery.
