I've sold my '30 A to a man in Canada. He's coming for the car Saturday. The car's engine has been replaced, and the number on the engine does not match the number on the title. Will this cause a problem at the border? Would a bill of sale listing the frame number and the engine number be...

I'm now processing the third weird offer to buy my car. As on the others, Vanessa Haynes from South Dakota wants to send me the money to pay the shipper, but she's willing to wait until her check clears my bank. What's the catch? I told her my car has the rare, optional, seven cylinder engine...

I have a coupe for sale on the MAFCA web site. A man named Felix Hood, with a UK (England) email address wants to buy it. Have any of you barners had any dealings with this person? Is he real? He doesn't come across as a car guy.

I just got an email from Marvelous Ben. He wants to buy my 30 Coupe, which I advertised on MAFCA. He says he can only pay via PayPal. Should I be worried?

A friend has the heads off of two Model A engines. One of the heads is a stock Model A head, the other is the optional 5.2 compression ratio police head with the block letter "B." He has purchased the new silicone style gaskets, and he notes the the instructions say to use a Model B style...

I'm about to install new window channels in my 30 coupe. I have new channels from Snyder's, but the originals had a rolled metal edge. These new ones do not. Are more authentic channels available? Also, Snyder's reccommends just gluing the channels in place with trim cement. Does this work...

My early 30 coupe does not have a pocket on the driver's side. All of the coupe interior pics I've seen show pockets on both sides. I really think my car was a Standard, though it now has cowl lights and dome light. Is it possible that the coupe came with only a pocket on the passenger door...

I'm having a problem getting the oil pan back on my B engine (31 rdstr). It seems that the counterweights are hitting the oil pump shield, which probably got deformed when the pump fell down while I was trying to put the pan on yesterday. My questions: what function does the shield serve? Would...

When the cold weather hit, my speedo started jumping, and it was noisy. I pulled the center cable, cleaned it, lubed it, put it back. speedo no longer jumps, but it's still noisy. So, I bought a new cable and installed it. Still noisy. Can it be the speedo itself? (early '30 oval with trip...

I just tore my B engine down for a little maintenance. The hardest part was removing all the cotter pins. Is there something better out there after nearly 80 years?

My friend's '28 roadster has a rear spare and a rumble seat. What it doesn't have is the brace or reinforcement that goes from the rear, curved floor piece up to the spare mount. I don't see that brace or reinforcement listed in the catalogs. If you've converted from a trunk to a rumble and have...

By request, I took my 31 roadster to a wedding yesterday to provide background for pictures. One lady asked me, "Is that an early Thunderbird?"

Is September 16th the right day for 2010? Thanks.

Can anyone tell me the difference between Model A and Model B (1932) king pins? My car has 1935 front brakes on Model A axle and spindles. Seems to work OK with Model A king pins, but I see there is a difference in part number between 1931 and 1932. Thanks for your help.
