12 years or so ago, I rebuilt the motor on my 29 AA. I decided to buy a 'Leakless' water pump for whatever it was going for back then. Well, my leakless pump is now leaking around where the packing nut is... What should I do? Mark in Fairbanks Alaska

I just purchased a good 'Field Find' 1934 Ford BB truck and I was wondering what specific parts I have on hand, or can order, from the Model AA portions of catalogs, that I can use. I find that parts for the 4 banger engine are not available for instance. Are the rear hub seals the same on a...
