I was looking at an early advertisement for E. A. Laboratories horns, specifically the Mile Away and 10 A models and it said they were wound for both 6 and 12 volts. There was only one item number for each so does this mean that that model horn could handle both 6 and 12 volt applications? It...

I'm trying to determine what I've got here. 13 inches high with a 4 inch opening at the front. The ID tag is on the projector but has been worn unreadable....

I know, an odd question but what have you found for exhausts that actually does what it should? My question come from a miserable time I had with Rustoleum High Heat Black that I used to paint my outdoor grill. Sanded the grill and painted as instructed on the can (grill is an old Ducane all...

I have an original Stanco quail cap and base which are not attached together. Looking at the underside of the quail cap there is a recessed hole in the center which appears to be threaded. The hole is about 1/2 inch wide. The base has the hinged piece attached, what is missing is the thin...

I was investigating this product and it appears to be easy to use and produces great results. It has the flexibility to follow curves and adhere well. Has anyone used this product successfully? Also, what is required for the painted surface of the car prior to painting the strip? My thoughts...

I recently replaced my battery and connected my ring terminals with harness for charging. Hooked up to the Deltan charger and left it on overnight. You would imagine my surprise in the morning when I found that the charger was blinking red because I had hooked up my ring harness...

I've had and used my 6 and 12 volt Battery Tenders for years and have had no problems with them. I recently saw one of these units in the Snyder's catalog which seems to bring the product to a new level. They claim to charge and maintain both 6 & 12 volt batteries with features the prevent...

I'm working with an original rear steel drum. I found it to be 3 inches deep where the hub bolt bottoms are flush with the inside of the drum. The kind people on the site have advised me that after I cut through the swedge part of the bolt I may still need to tap it out with a hammer and doing...

I'm trying to get the snap ring out of a rear hub to pull the bearing. There has got to be an easier way! Please advise.....

I'm going to remove two bad hub bolts from a rear drum and I've read most of the posts regarding the topic. A couple of questions regarding the tools. It appears that a 9/16 hole saw will do the job of cutting out the swedged part of the bolt to free it from the drum. There are many of these...

There are at least three types that I know of, the home made version in Les's book, the type sold by Bratton which kind of resembles the home made type and the one sold by Snyder's which is totally different. I've got a 1930 coupe and I'm trying to determine which type would best suit my needs...

I'm going to replace my old steel brake drums with new cast iron and if possible would like to order what is needed and have the work done locally to avoid unnecessary shipping charges or I could send my hubs to Snyder's or Bratton's and have them do the work. They are both not too far from my...

So I pull the rear wheel on the passenger side of my 1930 coupe and when I try to put it back I find 2 hub bolts can no longer be tightened and I know it's not the lug nuts because I used those two on another wheel and they snugged up nicely. Never had this problem happen before. Is the only...

So I dug through my collection of odd's and end's and found this. It's 15/16 outer diameter, 7/8 inner diameter and 1/16 wide. Am I in luck?

I need an appraiser familiar with pre-war Chrysler cars for this location. Recommendations?

So my garage is full of things that get used only once like the generator for Sandy. Yes I'm in New Jersey and hope I never have to crank that thing up again but relying on JCP&L is a crap shoot at best. Anyway, I managed to put a small chip (1/4 inch) on the outside bead of my fender moving...

My coupe has a set of shocks rebuilt by Robert Paul several years ago and the past threads say that he fills his shocks with glycerin. OK, what type, I went on line and found several kinds each with different additives for different purposes. What type or brand would be compatible with what he...

Recently there was a post regarding Model A parts being sold to nefarious individuals who would then claim the part arrived damaged and return a damaged substitute part to the seller for a refund. I recently sold a baseball bobble-head (don't laugh) to someone who then claimed it arrived to...

OK, I had to bring this up because there are many of us who feel that buying parts for our Model A's is sooooooo expensive. Then we go off to the auto parts store or dealership and pay $20.00 for a paper gasket. I think repro Model A parts are dirt cheap compared to what we have to pay for...
