These items showed up in the local recycle center. Did not want to see them sold for iron price. The basic list is: Oil Pan Rear main bottom bearing half Intake Manifold Flywheel Housing Front crankshaft pully Front timing cover ( I think) Oil Breather pipe A box of assorted Model A nuts...

I obtained a Laskey trunk for a real bargain, I think! I have attached some pictures! It is missing a center latch. It was manufactured in Newark, N J but the years considering cars it would fit, appear to end in maybe 1932. I have looked at a lot of vintage auto pictures and have not seen this...

Someone locally donated to me two Ward Riverside 4.75-500x19 tires! They look to good to be from the 50's and 60's! Does anyone know if Coker (or someone else) did a tire mold using Wards Riverside on tires they sold in the past?

I have not done a lot of driving of my Model A since purchased. But with that said, I would drive it to town, got new tires, drove it to the Pizza place, entered a local vintage car show and just enjoyed the car as it was safe enough to drive to town. The engine always seemed to be lugging...

Death wobble on my Model A is started by applying the brakes. One front wheel seems to brake in spurts. I have to replace the steering sector bearing at a minimum, also, but at this time, I am concentrating on front brakes that start the death wobble and there really is no sense putting it back...

Was going through a junk box, dug out several ignition coils, and did some primary resistance checks. Two were Delco and one, an original 6 volt ford Coil off a model A. The resistance measurement of the Delco's was 1.35 ohms (externally marked as 12 volt coils) the Ford Coil measures 1.4 ohms...

The headlights on my original 6 volt Model A were just not very good. The reflectors had been messed with and would need re-silvering or replacement, whoever had the car before me did a wiring loom upgrade, that looks original, everything worked right, just very dim beam headlights. I started...

When I had first purchased my 1930 model A, I was having some charging, wiring and ammeter issues, and had to get a handle on actual current drains of my Model A Ford. I venture there is a place I could have gotten all this, and some I found on the web, and the rest is just capturing the current...

I recently got an E. A. Labs wiper motor that appears to fit a Model A Ford, similar to how the Trico motor fit on the outside of a sedan, under the visor. I have taken it apart and cleaned it and rewired it and have it pretty well cleaned up! What is missing is the Wiper arm, parts, the nut...

My Dads 1929 Model A, the years I remember this car are around 1946 to 1949. My dad, a mechanic had owned this Model A Ford since about 1935! The car was the 4 door DeLuxe with 2 wheel wells! (that he never put spare tires in.) and it had a full box trunk on the back that he used to carry water...

I replaced my 3 Brush Gen with an alternator and made the parts for mounting the Alternator to the original place the generator was mounted, I cannot show the two pieces of drilled flat stock as I already have the Alternator mounted, Basically two pieces of Flat Stock 1 inch wide, 2 and 1/2...

My "Recently purchased" 1930 Model A has a strange issue at the head gasket! I noted recently that an oily substance appears to be leaking from the head gasket (on the drivers side at the front to the middle of the head), after running hard for about 45 min. I have checked the torque on the head...

My current swan pot metal cap has basically disintegrated. In looking around, it appears any and all of the aftermarket caps, other than the twist-on's with no Temperature indication, are all in need of being ground down to fit. I venture that is what was done to the cap on my radiator. Yet...
