My father left a suitcase at our family cottage marked "Model A Ford Parts & Tools". Along with a bunch of Front Brake actuator parts, these tools were in the case. I'm only "Les Andrews Handbook" tough when it comes to mechanics so I'm not sure what all these tools are. My sense would be that...
So I am getting ready for my first parade this Saturday. Have the kids riding with me in the '29 Tudor. I'm a little nervous about clutching and braking uphill and downhill at 2-5mph for 1.5 miles. I have had the car for a year but have never driven it like this. Any advice from the seasoned...
So I changed the oil and took her out for the first ride of the season. No issues, ran great, beautiful day. Only went 14 miles. When I got back I noticed a some oil underneath. It did not leak much, and it's much darker than the new oil thats in it. Oil level is right up there. Is this ******...
Looking for some recommendations on the best LED turn signal/brake light system to put on my 29 Tudor. I will not be using it as a daily driver, but plan on using it frequently. I would like a complete system that works off the +Gnd 6V if possible.
Thanks to all and God Bless America!!
What the heck does "Btt" mean. I see it a lot in The Swap Meet and a few times in some threads. I feel like a fool, but just can't figure out what it means and I lost my acronym dictionary.
So I have a couple of studs I need to replace on the right rear hub. Thanks to all your help I finally got the hub off and then stood there scratchin, "now what?"
Can any good mechanic with a press get the old studs out and press in the new ones? I thought I saw mention somewhere in the Barn...
Does anyone have a step-by-step on rear hub removal? Never done it before and I need to replace a stud. I have the hub remover and loosened the brake adjuster but the linings seem to be hanging up and I dont want to force anything. You folks have been a tremendous help throughout.
I was just reading a thread from Banky, who is kinda new like me.
I would love to hear about some technique on downshifting for next spring (she's hibernating) when I take the 29 Tudor back out.
I tried 2ble clutching to downshift a couple times this summer, but my teeth made just as much...
Hoping for some help here. Everything is coming along nicely with the interior on my 29 Tudor. I begin to put the rear window riser cranks in and can't figure out how to get the pin into the handle with the escution on. I have put some mechanical pressure on the escution but cant get it deep...
Does anyone know of a good tutorial that shows how to upholster the rear seat backrest in a 29 Tudor? I have done all the rest of the upholstery and its coming along rather nicely but the backrest is a little baffling. The instructions supplied by Lebaron Bonney are pretty vague.
Mine are a little loose. I'm a novice mechanic but would like to tackle this one myself. Any tips, instructions, videos, warnings, experience, first aid advice, Hail Mary's or cash donations? Cover me! I'm goin' in!
OK. Putting the new top on the 29 Tudor. I have just about everything prepped. I ordered the rain gutters from Snyders. Following directions, I put wax paper between the base and the gutter and snapped it together in order to bend it to the contour on the back. Slowly got a good match on the...
After spending some time here in the barn, it seems that electrical problems are pretty common so here is mine. Its a '29 Tudor.
Can't get the lights or the horn to work. With the engine running, removing the lighting switch from the column and touching the body of the switch to ground, the...
Any tips on removing door hinge pins on a 29 Tudor so I can put the side views in? It was finish painted and I dont want to just start hammering on the bottom in fear of chipping the surrounding paint. Please tell me I dont need some special tool! Thanks all!
OK..I would love to put this one to bed. I have done internet search after search trying to find STEP BY STEP directions on polarizing the gen on my 29 Tudor Sedan. I think I need pictures because I'm not confident of which terminals are which from the text I'm reading. Also can't tell if the...
