    Speedo Issue

    Hoping someone here has some experience with "oval" speedometers. MPH works great but the mileage and trip numbers will not turn at all while driving. Took the speedo out and turned with a drill. MPH works great but no mileage or trip rotation so I know it's not the cable. I can pull the trip...

    Mystery Holes in Dash

    Trying to find out what goes in two holes on my dash on drivers side. They look stamped out like they came that way from the factory. Have looked at a lot of 29 Tudor pictures and none of them have the holes in the dash. I was told when I got this car from a guy who had it since late 1960's that...

    What's in your toolbox?

    Almost finished with my Model A restore and I look forward to driving it quite a bit this fall. These will be mostly short trips back and forth to work and church until I gain more confidence. Hopefully by next spring I will be taking her on longer trips on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Here is a...

    Ammeter Wired Correctly?

    Trying to figure out if I have the ammeter wired correctly. The ammeter has no markings as to + or -. Dad and I believe the alternator is charging correctly but the ammeter always reads a little below 0 no matter which way we wire it. The ammeter is new as is the wiring harness. This is a 6 volt...

    The Brake Debate

    While researching the best practice to adjusting the brakes on my 29 A, I began to research and found there are two ways to do it. Both methods use the brake adjusting tool (piece of wood with three steps cut out that is placed between the seat and brake pedal). Method 1 shows adjusting the...
