This was the second time I got hooked up in my door handle with this shirt. Scary as hell. I won't let this happen again. Many modern viewers might find it improbable when they see something like this in an old movie, but it happened to me. Watch out.

Hello. I recently had a discussion with a fellow who insisted that 1931 Ford Model A production went on until March 1932. The book by Winnwisser, The Legendary Model A Ford, says that production ended in December 1931 with roughly 12,000 units being produced that month and a handful of...

Can anyone give me a recommendation on a high quality tire gauge for my antiques and daily drivers? My old friend Hank Wozniak, deceased former Milk Truck Driver, gave me a real nice analog tire gauge back in the 80s. That one lasted for a good while but failed eventually. I bought...

According to reference materials I have, Ford Motor Company did not produce any car called a "Business Coupe" or a "Business Man's Coupe" during the 1937, 1938 and 1939 model years (I won a $50 bet over this issue). I know that there was a 1940 Business Coupe (with jump seats), which is...

Where can we get Early V-8 hardware and fasteners now that Roy N. is gone? RIP Roy. I need the hardware that holds the tail light stands to the rear fenders for 1937 Ford (L&R). The hardware that is on my car appears to be original (crudded over and rusted) and I have no confidence that...
