Nice original 1927 Maine plates. $55 + postage.

OK, I've read Les' book and searched all the threads, and still don't understand how to raise the brush. I can get hold of it with my fingers and move it 1/8 inch or so horizontally, but can't get any vertical movement. I was reading about 8 amps during daytime at normal driving conditions...

I'm having a mind fart. Was the dash originally chrome or nickel?

I have what I believe are the original engine pans for my 31 roadster, but they haven't been on the car in years because both are missing their rear tabs. I've decide to try to weld them up and put them back on, but have no idea what the missing rear tabs look like. Does anyone have a good...

Were the amber over red tail lights specific to any particular Model A?

I'm redoing the seats in my '31 deluxe roadster. When I stripped off the 50-year-old cover on the rumble seat bottom I discovered that it had been put on over the original upholstry. The original is WELL worn, but still in one piece. I hoped that the original seat back upholstry was there too...

Any A events or car things in general happening in the Pittsburgh, Youngstown, Grove City area over Presidents Day weekend? I'll be stuck there for three days with nothing to do. Thanks for ideas.

I was looking at the '31 steel top pick-up posted for sale on the Swap Meet, and it does not appear to have an emergency brake lever. Shouldn't it be to the right of the shifter like in my '31 roadster, or were pick-ups different?

There was a post some time back discussing replating original instrument panels. There was a source that nickel plated and "butlerized." I've searched but can't find the thread. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Guys, I stumbled across this at a site you may not frequent. Check out www.northwestclassicautomall.com Select Cars and Trucks for Sale, then Latest Additions to NWCAM, and she should be at the top. The Plymouth there is neat too.

So there we were coming home from a local show on a glorious sunny afternoon. The the '31 dies. I have no electrical anything and discover the fuse is blown. I pull the dead fuse and set a new one in the cradle and it blows in my fingers. That was special. I removed the wires from the batt...

I want to pull the starter to repaint it and tidy up a bit. It looks straightforward, but I want to make sure that it won't take a PhD and a $200 speciality tool to get it back in. Can someone please confirm it is as straightforward as it appears? Thanks.

There were a couple carbs in a box of A parts I picked up. A Zenith 1, a Zenith 2, and one that, at least from the pictures in other threads, appears to be a Tillotson. What is the difference between the Zenith 1 and 2, and what did the 2 come on? Thanks. ken

I've just replaced the e-brake pads on my '31. One side is centered perfectly, but the other is off enough that even with the band fully retracted to the stop, the pad drags. How is that adjusted?
