    Any old Ford employees here?

    I recently acquired an old DuKane movie projector and record player along with dozens of films and records from the '50s which were put out by Ford for use by their salesmen and mechanics. It appears to work but I don't know how to install the film and synchronize it with the record. Does anyone...

    Will a new carb improve my gas mileage?

    I recently purchased a '52 Vickie with the stock flathead V8. The car only gets 11 mpg on the highway at 65 mph. It has a 2 speed Fordomatic trans and 3.00 rear gears. The guy I bought it from told me that the carb has already been rebuilt several times and I should buy a new one. Will that...

    Just bought a '52 Vicky....

    Last weekend I flew down to Tampa from Louisville and bought a '52 Crestline Victoria from a 73 year old guy who has owned it since 2005 and drove it back up here. He rebuilt the flathead and a friend with a transmission shop rebuilt the Fordomatic. Then he started making a few changes and...

    How do I change the price in the title of my ad?

    I just reduced the price of my Model A from $19,500 to $16,500 but I don't know how to change the price in the title of the ad. Can someone please tell me how to do it or can a mod do it for me? Thanks....:confused:

    Engine still won't start....

    I removed the floorboard and checked the battery terminals and the positive one came off when I twisted it. I tightened it down really well and at least it will crank over now but it still won't start. My wife cranked it over while I removed the coil wire and held it next to the engine block and...

    Engine died and won't start....

    I thought I would take the Model A for a drive this afternoon but after driving up the street about 100 yards the engine died and wouldn't restart. It was on a hill so I coasted back into my driveway where it sits now. The engine cranks with plenty of juice but won't start. The gas tank is 3/4...

    1930 Model A Coupe with Rumble Seat - $19,500 or possible trade....

    1930 Model A Coupe with Rumble Seat - Possible Trade? This car runs as good as it looks. It has had a frame off restoration and is a lot of fun to drive. The kids (and those who are kids at heart) will enjoy riding in the rumble seat which is something you certainly can't do in a late model...

    Will driving at 55 mph for several miles cause a Model A to overheat?

    A couple of days ago I got on the interstate and cruised at 55 for about 10 miles and just before I got off the freeway the car overheated. I had to turn on the wiper so I could see out the windshield. Could this be caused by driving at 55 or could there be another reason for it? I just bought...

    Where EXACTLY is the serial number on the frame?

    I went to get plates for the Model A today and they wouldn't accept the number on the engine. They said it has to be on the body or the frame. After I got home I drove the left two wheels up on ramps and looked around on the left (driver's side) frame rail and couldn't find any numbers. I've...

    Any Model A owners near Louisville, KY?

    Greetings from the new guy. My name is Dave and I live just NE of Louisville, KY. Yesterday I traded my '37 Packard Touring Coupe for a 1930 Model A Coupe with rumble seat. The Model A has a frame off resto and is in very nice shape. I've never owned a car this old and don't know much about it...
