Would someone be able to post a similar picture of the back end of a good splash apron? I need to repair this area and don’t have a good example of what it should look like (cutouts, bolt holes, etc.). TIA!

Does anyone have a reliable source for the rubber shock link balls used with the 34/35 same-side dog bone shock links? When I look online, it says the part number is B-18060, but when I ordered that part number from a supplier, they sent me the smaller A-18060 balls used on the model As with the...

I need to replace the front cowl supports on my 31 pickup cab. Both sides are completely gone. I know that front support dips down a bit, but I don’t know how much. With the cab sitting on the wood blocks, are there any landmarks that I can measure from to know where the bottom foot needs to be...

I just finished disassembling, cleaning, greasing and reassembling my entire front end from spindles to steering box, including new rubber seals on the tie rods and adjusting the steering box on the bench. When I was done, I was just surprised at how tight the steering was with the front wheels...

Reaching out to the guys who rebuild speedometers. I have this busted oval Waltham speedometer that I’m looking to trade for a working odometer cluster from a round Waltham (or at least as many good wheels and gear discs as possible). The frame is broken, but it looks like most of the internal...

Nice 28/29 bumper and brackets

I’m looking for an odometer cluster or a few individual odometer wheels for a round Waltham speedometer that I’m rebuilding. Or even a whole speedometer that’s in bad shape as long as I can salvage the odometer. TIA!

I’m rebuilding a ‘31 pickup that I purchased with no bed. I don’t want to spend a lot of money on an original roached bed that will need a lot of work, so I was thinking about doing something unique, budget friendly and appropriate for the time period. I thought about doing a mini version of an...

I’m trying to assemble the anti-rattle springs on my brake rods and I’m finding that there’s not enough room to install the smaller spring on the e-brake rods because the balls seem too close together as compared to the picture in the Les Andrew’s book. The smaller spring interferes with the...

Does anyone know the thickness, width and length dimensions on the 28-31 floorboard irons? Thanks!

Looking for either Waltham odometer wheels or a really rough/cheap core that I can pull odometer wheels from. I’m rebuilding an otherwise good speedo that has a damaged odometer. Thanks!

Looking for decent gas gauge that I can refurbish along with the tools if possible. Also looking for a round speedometer that I can refurbish. TIA!

Can anyone help identify the year for these shocks? I’m guessing mid 30’s. They have oil in them and the movement seems pretty good despite the heavy rust. I was hoping to clean them up and use them on my 31 pickup, but the arms seem too short for the back, and up front, the arms line up well...

I ordered the 6 pc brake rod set from Snyders for my 31 pickup. On each of the 4 long rods for the service brakes, the knob that engages the anti-rattle springs is about 17-1/2” from the clevis eye. The rear rods went in without a problem. On the front, however, the bracket that holds the...

I just wanted to share a quick story about my recent experience as I was getting ready to remove the rear end from my 31 pickup. In preparation, I read a lot of the posts and articles about being careful with the springs, so my plan was to remove the u bolts, drop the rear and immediately put...

I’m keeping my eyes open for a set of seat springs for a 31 pickup I’m rebuilding as a driver. If I can’t find a used set of springs, I’ll go the plywood/thick foam route, but I do have a couple questions. Are the bottom seat springs the same for all Model A cars and trucks? Are there any bench...

I'm working on a '31 pickup project that I bought with an assembled radiator and shell. I recently removed the radiator to rod it out and repair some leaks. When I was done and ready to put the shell back on, I noticed that the shell was badly racked. I started thinking that it might have...

I have a decent 28/29 front bumper that I’d like to trade for a comparable 30/31 bumper in the NJ, NY, CT, PA area.

I’m currently trying to salvage the radiator on my 31 pickup project, just hoping to get a couple more years out of it while I work on the rest of the truck. Being on a tight budget, I’m doing the repairs myself, so I’ve been reading a lot of the posts related to radiators. I’ve seen a few...
