What is the correct tire size for a 1940-41 Ford Pickup? 6:00 x 16? 6.50 x 16? It is time to re-tire and want to know what the correct size should be. Thank you in advance.

"A" Carburetor Question: Bore size and center to center mounting bolt length? This is a related but non-related question: Visiting a friend with a 1912 Buick that needs a carburetor to get it running. It looks like the intake manifold will accept a Model A carburetor. He isn't a Model A guy...

I am out of town at a friend's house and he just purchased a 1929 roadster, engine number: 1176476 which is believe is about March of 1929. It is a nice and proper restoration but we have a few questions and my Judging Standards are at home. The car has typical 1929 doors with exterior...

I forgot what color the top and bottom inserts of a 1931 stainless radiator shell should be painted? Lower piece black and upper piece body color, right? My Judging Standards are currently buried due to an office move..... Thanks!!

Do you think this is Lombard or Andulusite Blue on this 1930/31 Standard Phaeton seen on MAFCA's "A of the Day"? I really like it-especially with the black wheels and tires. Understated elegance. Thanks.

I just ran across a real nice, stock 1932 Model B pickup chassis. Unfortunately, the body and bed were removed for a street rod years back. The chassis is complete with all the mechanicals as well as the hood, grill, fenders, etc. My questions is: Will a stock 1932 passenger car body fit on...

So here's the story: A friend of mine near Charlottesville, VA got a running, fully restored 1930 town sedan last summer. The car was delivered to him as a good running car. He parked the car and it has sat unused for the last seven months since being purchased. So, he tried to start it...

I was looking at this 1932 today and was wondering what year engine it has? Sorry, this is the only photos I have of it. Thanks in advance.

I know it's hard to determine paint color from photos, but what is the Ford factory color name for this shade of green? Thanks in advance. I appreciate it. Trying to settle an argument between friends....

I've been inspired to began work (again!) on my 1929 Sedan Delivery. It's so close to being finished. Although I have enjoyed driving it around in primer, it is really time to finish it once and for all. Searching this forum I came across photos of this beautiful example that is in the MAFFI...

I know this will sound like a weird question, but.... I just bought a 1931 Deluxe roadster. Like most deluxe roadsters it is painted Washington Blue with cream wheels and whitewalls. I really dislike colored wheels and/or whitewalls on Model As, so I am seriously debating about painting the...

This is probably a really stupid question. I was looking at photos of a 1935 engine compartment and I noticed a black rubber hose coming out of the top of firewall that is not connected (see close up photo). This car is supposedly a high point, restored car so I am assuming it is supposed to be...

I just noticed this on the RM Hershey Auction website. I believe this was that was owned by a collector in New Hampshire for awhile. I am trying to remember if this is the lowest serial number Model A in existence? Can someone refresh my memory? Thanks...

I have never been able to get the driver's side door to lock on my 1929 Tudor. Today, I took the upholstery panel out and loosened the "slide" lock so it moves back and forth, but that didn't lock the door. Upon looking inside, I don't understand how the slide lock engages with the door latch...

Just saw this on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1929-FORD-SEDAN-DELIVERY-BENCH-SEAT-MODEL-REAL-STEEL-/170961057020?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item27ce12b4fc#v4-42 I was wondering if anyone can tell if this is indeed a real sedan delivery from the photos shown or a converted Tudor? I have...

I was wondering if a 1936 "full" style metal spare tire cover assembly will fit onto a 1935 wire wheel? I like the look of the 1936 style better than the 1935. Thank you in advance.

I am considering buying this 1928 roadster. It is an original, all steel car, NOT one of the Shay reproductions. The car currently has a modern four cylinder (Pinto?) engine and transmission. The owner told me there was a conversion kit made awhile back to adapt this engine into a stock A. I...
