I put a new tractor 6V battery from Fleet Farm and a Fun Projects voltage regulator 14 years ago last spring. Both are still going strong. I know they had quit building the FP regulator, I haven't kept up, are they back on the market yet? I don't use a battery maintainer, just jump in and start...

Check out this AA pickup on facebook marketplace. Ive not seen something like this before. https://www.facebook.com/share/iJXXPBn19wrr7d8h/

Took my 15 year old with her learner's permit out last night for some "stick shift" lessons. She did really well, went to a restaurant a few miles away and had dinner, it was dark when we were done so I drove home. Took her about three stop/go times to start getting the feel for the clutch...

I ran across this AD on Craigslist. Not sure what the purpose is? Ha! :p https://stcloud.craigslist.org/cto/d/alexandria-28-ford-roadster-pick-up/7246916547.html

Could maybe mount on the front...

The question comes up so often about running 12 volt devices on a 6 volt positive ground car. If you do ebay here is a very good little device that I use often. They work very well and are very durable. The pc board is epoxied so vibration does not bother. Will put out a solid clean 10 amps...

This is just as I was getting ready to take my wife and girl's out for Mother's Day today. Thought it a nice pic...

This is an interesting old car on an auction here in MN. It is a 1914 Dodge, first year they were built. Serial number 5. So, there can't be more than 4 earlier than this one...

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/cto/4417040630.html Seems high to me but I've not seen a 400A sell before. Nice looking car in the pics anyway. Thought some might be interested in seeing it as not too many 400A out there.

I always keep an eye on model A prices on Craigs list, want ads, etc. I have noticed the prices being asked have risen by maybe even +30% in the last couple years. Is it just our area or have the rest of you noticed the same? 2-3 years ago it was common to see real nice ones, older restos for...

Anyone see the 1927 Model A pickup on ebay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1927-Ford-model-pickup-original-TITLE-RARE-/200843781105?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item2ec338e3f1

I enjoyed this pic and, actually, may not be too far from the truth!

Did anyone go to the Widmer auction in Cologne, MN last weekend? I was there for a while. They had a 29 Phaeton that as far as I could tell was perfect, a right hand drive, and it sold for $11,000. Seemed really cheap to me. I didn't think it would go cheap so wasn't prepared to buy it. A Hudson...

Been a while since I've seen a Vicky for sale, just thought I'd post it here in case anyone is interested. No, I am not involved in any way, just saw it and thought it was interesting. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/cto/3180309740.html

Check out this auction. Early Ford parts is being liquidated. Looks like someone will make a haul here. I would love to go through it myself... http://www.aumannauctions.com/index.php?subp=1&sct=2&pg=ap&pid=28089&ap_sub=fp

I've been looking at the high speed differential gears that Mac's (and others) sells. It says they increase top end by +5 mph. That would be really nice, but how much does it affect 1 st gear? 1st gear is plenty fast stock already, so is reverse. Does anyone have it in theirs? How big of a job...

When I got my car, the transmission had a real gooey oil in it, it shifted pretty good. This spring I changed out the oil with 600W from Mac's. It made a big difference on shifting, and not for the better! I had to really be careful as it was VERY easy to "grind a pound" and the gears had a...

This looks like a fun one.... don't see many 33s that aren't restored or rodded. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&item=261003179418&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D5%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D7796442725438113302&cmd=ViewItem Sorry, called it...

Just replaced the interior on my Briggs Fordor Blindback. I was sweating bullets... I have about a 2.5hr drive (1 way)to a good upholstery store and the color and type I found, they only had 3 yds of. I bought it anyway, hoping I could cut enough corners to make it fit, and it worked! I replaced...
