    Wazzup with this serial number?

    "A" block, definitely not a restamp! I know small bore engines were prefixed AF or AAF, but I've never seen one start with an R. The small bores were used on both left and right drive vehicles, but to my limited knowledge the engine numbers themselves never reflected this. A and AA...

    Anyone with judging experience in Area 17: Tools? I have acquired a complete original late '31 manual for my 40B. The best one I have come across in several years. The last sentence, italicized, on p.17-4 states: "If the manual is complete, including the cover, and the pages can be opened...

    Comparison of Original and Halogen Bulbs

    In a recent thread LINK Mark Maron posted a picture of his new uber-spendy 6V halogen lamps from Classic Vintage Bulb. SteveB31 from Berts also posted a link to their 6V halogen. I put together three pictures: Here's what I see- 1) Neither halogen has the same filament shape or orientation...

    Non MARC/MAFCA Model A Clubs

    Does anyone know of any non MARC/MAFCA affiliated clubs that are specifically Model A? Some or at least one must exist somewhere. I'm curious after reading THIS PAGE, paragraph #2 It does not state the independents are strictly "A", but I'm just curious.

    Piston deck height

    Hey guys, I'm a Model A guy, and have a T question. New model A engines had an odd compression height on the pistons. When combined with the stock rod length, the pistons protruded 1/32" (0.0315") above the deck of a "perfect" engine. Did T's have the top edge of the pistons even with or...
