    1931 Pickup Engine Knock

    I bought this 1931 and brought it back to La Vergne, Tennessee from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It had blown exhaust manifold gaskets when I got it. I replaced with copper gaskets and no further issues there. However there is a knock. The person I got the truck from never mentioned any engine...

    Where does your 53 Ford run?

    I have a 1953 Ford Customline flathead V8 with a Fordomatic trans and from what I can tell is an original car. The temperature gauge lacks on the details. The picture I'm including is of the tempt while driving in a little less than a 100° day. At a red light the temp would quickly rise to H. If...

    1925 alignment issues

    A friend of mine has this 1925 Ford Model T truck. He lives a couple of hours from me and while visiting yesterday I noticed his hood was not lining up very well. He said he bought the hood and grill shell from Snyder's many years ago. Now I would just chalk it to poor manufacturing but was...

    Most accurate tempt prob location?

    I see there are 3 options for a location for the sensor prob for the coolant tempt. I assume the one that goes where the top radiator hose goes would be the most accurate. My assumption being the coolant flows from the bottom out the top of the motor. What has been your experience? Reason for...

    Vibration After New Motor

    I bought an Antique Engine Builders touring motor from a friend of mine. He bought the engine new and after about 800 miles he decided he wanted a V8. So I jumped at the deal and put the motor in my 31 Tudor. Now I rode with him in his coupe while the motor was in his car and it ran very smooth...

    Chasing the knock.

    I just purchased my 2nd Model A title says 1932 but it's a 1931 to me. Any way, it has a knock. It has been sitting in an 80 year old man's house for sometime. I had a previous problem of it not running well after a carb rebuild but it was solved with another carb. The car starts good, runs...

    Won't run without choke (solved)

    I just picked up a 1931 sedan Saturday. The carburetor was pouring gas from what seemed every seal. I just rebuilt the carb and no leaks. However the car will not run unless I keep the choke pulled slightly. Only thing odd on the rebuild was I had to use to washers under the float to get it to...

    Grinding into 1st

    Whenever I'm driving my 1930 coupe about every time I try to go into first it grinds until the gears slow down enough for it to go into gear. Mind you this is at a dead stop. I've tried while waiting on a traffic light to grind it into first then put back into neutral just to see if it will go...

    Hotrod Regrets

    Anyone ever take a bone stock Model A and hotrod it and then regret they ever changed the car (or truck)? I have a stock 1930 Coupe and am always fighting myself on making changes. You know 16" wheels, juice brakes, drop axle, etc. I just drove the car again to Nashville, TN (close to an hour...

    Tire reviews

    I've looked on the Internet and here on Ford Barn without much to go off of. I'm in the market for new tires and I could not find any reviews for Model A tires or explanation of the the different materials they are made from. So I figured no better place to start one than here. I want to hear...

    Leaking oil from bellhousing

    I'm leaking oil and it's running from the hole at the bottom of the bellhousing. It only leaks while it is running but is what I would consider a serious leak. The oil in the picture is after I drove the car about 10 minutes and stopped. The car had been sitting for less than 5 minutes and made...
