    fun day with un expected bonus

    My original radiator is not a honeycomb,but does have a few leaks and i bet it could use a good rodding. So for now the honeycomb will do the job, until I can repair and rod out the original. So while we have hijacked this thread is rodding just removing the tanks and running a rod through the...

    fun day with un expected bonus

    Well the Price was right and it seems to work well so far. I still have the original and maybe at a later date I'll pick your brain on the procedure of this "rodding out".

    fun day with un expected bonus

    I bought a radiator at the swap meet at the Dearborn MARC meet last week that’s “HoneyComb” like that. The guy said it was a 28. I like the look.

    Is there a better swage tool?

To get the old lugs out I was going to buy a $100 slugger bit (like an end mill kinda but with a hole trough the center.) For some reason I tried a Bi-Metal hole...

    Not model A related (entirely) Kindig-it-Design

    I like Bitchin' Rides too. I also watch a few that are mentioned in post #3. Right now I think my favorite is "Iron Resurrection". Joe Martin and his crew "appear" to have a passion for what they do and do it well.

    Thanks everyone I used this thread to get mine back in time. Thanks Tom Wesenberg for the picture that helped a lot. Thanks Y-Blockhead for the suggestion on the bent wrench. I will go get me a wrench to bend this weekend at the local "Dirt Mall" (Outdoor Flea Market).

    American Pickers Model A .

    I gotta say these guys irritate me! I hate the way they almost beg people to sell them an item that the person acts like they don't want to sell. They tell them I got to have it! They finally win them over and buy it. Then as they leave the drive they tell you how they're going to sell it for...
