    Help with stuck U joint

    I'm trying to remove an engine out of a 24 T chassis. I have it free everywhere except the u joint is stuck in the back of the transmission. There doesn't seem to be any place to apply heat and soaking in penetrant hasn't helped. Motor is stuck so I can't rotate. Any advice appreciated. Steve

Looked like a 357 shot through the door with jagged edges but not exiting the outer skin. At a Model A event with my club recently I had the opportunity to...

    Subrails and cross chanels

    I'm new here and starting work on a 31 roadster. The back half of my subrails and all 3 cross channels are junk and need to be replaced before I can start putting the body together. In looking at the ads for these from most of the suppliers, I notice that some are trim to fit, and some seem to...
