    Prices are certainly down

    Although I have been aware of what has happened to the market, I am stunned by the extent of the drop. I currently have my '41 Mercury Sedan coupe on Hemmings make an offer site . I have it listed for $24,900. Currently pushing 1000 lookers, 13 watchers. Any and all comments welcome, critical or...

    Dumb Me!

    OK, update on my situation. MRI yesterday, results today show no bone fractures but considerable muscle damage. PT recommended which I start in a week. I still think there is nerve damage as well. We'll see how the PT works and go from there. I do appreciate all the concern. Correction: Visit...

    Why a Resistor?

    And mine too! I had to pull my "50 Chrysler with my Model A doodlebug out to the road, then coast the MOPAR down the hill I lived on to get it started. The A started with snow on top of the engine!

    Why a Resistor?

    Even though it is DC current through the coil, it is of an alternating nature, therefore impedance IS a factor. However, it seems that my thought is deviation from the original question. Sorry!

    Dumb Me!

    My internet has been down for a few days, so I am slow in posting a pic of my garage door, which does not do it justice, It needs a lot of work. And if you can believe it, while I was trapped I was formulating a plan to straighten out the door!

    Dumb Me!

    Well, for sure it is not the first dumb thing in my 85 years, but likely the worst. I usually think things through better knowing that I have ADD. My father used to shake his head at my unique approaches to problems and solutions. Thinking out of the box is my forte and also my distraction...

    Dumb Me!

    I have to relate something I did a few weeks back when I clearly wasn't thinking things through. I had my 1930 White one-ton front wheels on ramps and the rear axle on jack stands. I was in the process of installing the driveshaft I just built. The rear U joint was hung up on the pinion nut, so...

    Why a Resistor?

    I have witnessed the same thing, very little voltage reduction when resistor is hot. My car starts quite well, but I am inclined to bypass the resistor via the solenoid connection and diode route.

    How many of you do your own work?

    I do everything except for body painting (I'll to chassis), upholstery and heavy machining. I just finished building a driveshaft from scratch, as the U joints on it are unique and driveshaft shops have no way of fixturing it. This was for my 1930 White. Turned out very true. Previous owner bent...

    Thanksgiving

    I for one am grateful for the support through our common interest. It has been a real benefit to me in a practical sense and keeping me sharp mentally. Have a good one!

    SOLD notices ???? Don't see any/many

    I did the same thing! And I am enjoying the car a bunch. Even at today's values, I believe I paid about half of the cars worth.
