    Replace motor mounts

    I want to replace the motor mounts for a 1929 Coupe. The car is clean and runs fine, but needs them replaced. What is the estimated time to do the job? How about the time to replace the clutch and resurface the flywheel? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    1929 Special Coupe - what goes here?

    The picture is of a 1929 Model A Special Coupe trunk area. I have circled the area that I cannot figure out what is mounted there. I do not believe the frame has been modified and I think it is an original part of the car. Any help to explain what is mounted here would be a big help. Thanks

    Tillotson air balanced 1928-34 carb

    This is a new carb and can’t start. Good fuel getting to the inlet of carb, and the gas flows thru valve great but wont start unless I use starter fluid, then runs and stops. New carb, wouldn’t think I’d have to set the float, but out of ideas. Timing is good and fuel is good. Help. Thanks
