I’ve recently come across a number of old cast iron heads, some of which seem to be in pretty good shape. All are cast with the information below on top of the head - if pictures of both top and bottom help, I have them. I’m hoping to get a bit more knowledgeable on what this fellow has: 1)Harry...

I've been searching through past posts on handbrakes and have not seen too much in the way of schematics of the insides of a handbrake. I'm getting ready to take the innards out of my old handbrake and installing in a new one. If anyone has any diagrams it would be most appreciated.

Searching for the book: “Restoring the Model A and B Carburetor - the ‘Rex’ Reheis Way” by Gordon Biggar

Looking for a Model B oil filler tube/breather assembly.

I recently purchased a rebuilt engine and it came with a Winfield 7:1 head and was hoping someone could help me identify if this is an original or a remake. Note the 1-12 above the Winfield name and the "PAT PEND" below the name. I'll be driving this on a B Diamond block with a Stipe 305...

Looking a Model B Distributor.

Recently purchased a HF engine stand, now looking for an adapter for a Model A/B engine.

OK, sorry if this seems a bit gruff and I really don't know if there is a place to post thieves that misrepresent themselves when selling items. Beware of purchasing anything from "mar4i7". He sold me a Zenith B Carb for $150 and it appears he took the money and ran. Seemed legit with initial...

I'm sure many of you have heard about Jim (JR) Bullock's passing. Trying to get the word out that Jim's son-in-law has taken over the business. So, if you are looking for a Zenith, Tillotson, or Marvel Schebler carburetor -- contact Gary Johnspon at 903-490-3725. Gary also sells his...

Searching for a Zenith Model B Carburetor. Can be user ready or in need of an overhaul.

I'm sure someone has had this problem. My steering wheel suddenly has a lot of up and down/left to right wobble. My though was that the felt liner in the upper bushing either wore out or ended up falling inside of the steering assembly. The bushing is a year old from when I rebuilt the steering...

I'm beginning to notice excessive rattling with the windshield in my '28 Tudor. It's definitely occurring between the glass and the windshield frame. Does anyone have any quick fixes? If not, references for working in this area that includes removing the frame from the hinge, glass from the...

Interesting situation. I had overheating issues which I'm sure led to a blown head gasket. Did some surgery: installed a new HC head with graphite head gasket, and a new heavy duty radiator. Since she was apart, I also replaced the chipped macerated timing gear with an aluminum timing gear...

Has anyone ever dropped their oil pan and found the oil pump stuck? I removed the screw in the block where a bolt can be placed to keep the oil pump in place, but this had no affect. I'd like to inspect the oil pump. Removed the valve cover - no oil in the valve chamber, and I've always been...

Should anyone looking to lighten your inventory, I'm in the market for a new or like-new high compression head and 3-4 core radiator for my 1928 Tudor. Please send pictures and asking price. Mike

Just recently rebuilt my 7 tooth steering system for my 28 Model A. Installed a new sector shaft and worm as a part of the rebuild. My pitman arm fit fine on my old sector shaft, but upon installation I'm finding it doesn't want to fit on the new sector shaft. I tried opening with a large...

Hi all, I have been having a heck of a rattle from my steering column and some in my club think its coming from the control arms. I've pulled my horn rod and steering wheel and per the Les Andrews book, tried to sheer the pins with a 3/16" socket attached to a 6" extension. Try as I might...

I'm sure this query will be somewhat repetitive from others, but here goes. First background: I started the TLC of my father-in-law's Model A last year. First time out after changing out filters in bowl and filling up a dry gas tank I spewed a huge amount of rusty water. Got her home and shoved...

Working on my overheating cooling system (currently working through a thorough degrease and rust flush) I noted that the radiator baffle was missing. I looked through every Model A part house I was aware of and couldn't find any. Does anyone have a source, or does this have to be fabricated...

I've been working on my radiator due to some overheating problems and noticed that the radiator baffle is missing. Searching the parts houses that I know of and no one seems to have them. Is this something that needs to be fabricated? If so, does anyone have the schematics and directions on...
