    Warford in the Way of Removing Hogshead.

    I lost reverse on my 1914 runabout. I adjusted all I could but still no joy. Band replacement is in order. I have the Hogshead ready to come out but the Warford Transmission prevents me from getting it out. If I could drop the rear end and let it slide back about an inch I believe I could...

    Carburetor or Fuel Pump Issue

    My 46' Super De Luxe fires off in less that one revolution when I hit the starter button.......usually. If she sits for 4 or 5 days I have to put a little gas in the carburetor to get it to start. Sometimes I can see the low fuel level in the sediment bowl. If I drive around and shut the warm...

    '46 Convertible Top Pump

    I'm installing the convertible top pump in my '46 Super Deluxe. It was not installed when I bought the car so i'm not sure about the correct way that it's supposed to go. Is the valve/switch upside down? The wires and actuating rod don't seem to line up. How about the pump? Does the...

    Open Cars with Tops Down

    Many people I talk to with open cars are reluctant to put the top down. Several of them say that running with it down will lead to ill fitting tops and cracks in the material. Is this something particular to the short grain type vinyl tops? What's the consensus open car drivers?
