I'm getting ready to install my new rebuilt engine with rebuilt transmission attached. I have also assembled the pedals onto the bell housing. Will this be a problem as I swing the combo back into place? Will I have to take the pedals off?

Many years ago my '30 Tudor threw a fan blade. So, I am sensitive to this subject! I recently bought a nice '30 coupe and I was expecting to need to change my fan to a cast aluminum one, but I see it is apparently cast steel (confirmed with a magnet), not the old stamped/folded version. It...

I have a pair of running boards from my '48 F-1. They are the desirable early style that goes across to the frame. They are sand blasted and ready for substantial weld repair on the corrugated step areas. I ended up selling the truck and put on fiberglass ones because the welding work wasn't...

I'm starting to examine details on a '30 coupe I bought recently. I just noticed that the generator has two wires coming out of the hole where the one connection for the cutout normally is. One is connected to the cutout, the other is grounded to the case. My guess is that the extra wire is for...

I have just acquired some Champion No. 20 spark plugs. Without an extremely close examination they appear to be suitable for a Model A. They are two-piece, but do not have a copper top. Can anyone offer some insight?

I believe I have a tool for removing big truck rear brake drums mounted on tapered shafts with keys (same design as cars but different dimensions). It is not the KR Wilson tool design, but rather is the widely-used design that is a semicircular forging that slips over the hub, sliding over/into...

OK, I know I'm probably pouring gasoline on a fire, but I'm interested in your collective thoughts. I'm planning to take my engine to Schwalm's for a rebuild later this year. Should I do a counterweighted crank? What are the pro's and con's? Experiences?

This is an original Ford binder for service bulletins - Ford and Mercury V-8 and Lincoln V12. It has all 20 dividers. Sorry, no service bulletins themselves - but they are available from other sources. This binder is in amazing condition. The dividers are crisp and clean with pristine tabs. The...

I'm getting ready to pull my engine and I want to be sure that I have my engine stand properly set up. What do folks use as an adapter to hold the engine on the stand. Must be able to pull head and pan while it's on the stand. Pictures would be great!! Thanks!!

Here's a picture of me with my '30 Tudor in Dam Neck, VA in 1958. I drove the car down from MA and then back when I finished school. Lots of stories to tell!!

Help!! Somewhere recently while perusing one or another of my Model A reference books I came across a very nice table of finishes for all kinds of parts - both painted and I think hardware also. Foolishly I didn't mark it for future reference! And now I need to find it! I've tried looking...

I've been collecting the necessary parts to put a set of shocks on my '30 coupe. I just bought a pair of rear arms on eBay and they arrived today. They appear to be made out of bronze!! No numbers/letters, but apparently conforming in all other regards. Center part. The Judging Standards...
