Keep us posted, the things that were mentioned here are the things I would have tried myself, but it will be great to hear what you find when you’ve had the chance to dig in.

I was with a friend who found a set of 4 tires, still had the nubs on the tread, with the tubes, $500….

Travel safe and enjoy the ride!

Brent, were you able to drive the car without the venturi installed? Or did it just idle?

Who is going to save us from the FCC bots? I was censored for the word d o c u ment. When I looked, that word appears numerous times on the FCC’s website so obviously it is not a word worth censoring on their site. Go figure. I also applaud the job Ryan does with this forum. Great place for us...

Re: Judging standard history…. Ayers1, that is what I am going to do this winter. I took a quick look through and there are some things that are definitely the same now as was in 1974. Going to be a fun project.

Re: Judging standard history…. Bogiediver, I did notice, first time for me. Not sure what was the issue was with the word do***ent….

Re: Judging standard history…. Here’s a picture of the cover….

Judging standard history…. My car has been in the family since the early 1970’s. In going through the filing cabinets at my father-in-law’s house helping to sort things out for him, the family has at times stumbled into file folders marked Model A. One of the things just unearthed was a MARC /...

Sorry to hear about your accident, hopefully you came out of it OK. Snyders has them listed in stock in stainless and chrome.

Anybody selling a slant pole ignition coil?

As far as I know the original factory Ford Model A 7-tooth steering boxes universally used a splined upper steering shaft and a corresponding splined steering wheel. Not sure if the right hand version had a key. The tapered / keyed shaft was not introduced on LHD until the 2 tooth was...

The price of the house in the Shaker neighborhood seemed right…. According to Mr Google….

jg61hawk, I completely agree with you on this. I have tried the Nu-rex wrench in my garage, ran the motor for a bit and then checked the timing with a light and one of the Nu-Rex indicators that bolts to the front of the engine. The timing went from about 5 degrees advanced with the timing lever...

Thanks Marshall. Have you ever heard of using the John Deere corn head grease in the steering box? Lots of folks here are using it in the universal joint area. I have some and it is way thinner than chassis grease but much thicker than the 600W I have from one of the parts suppliers. I like your...

As always, awesome tips on the clip. Hopefully this is my last go at installing the clip, but we shall see. This morning I put the box in the car and filled it with 600w oil. Of all places the gasket on the side cover is leaking. I am in the process of removing the cover, cleaning things up so I...

I’ve had a 7 tooth steering box, all rebuilt and painted, sitting on my workbench for months. I have been having so much fun driving my car that I have not wanted to take it off the road to get it done. Previously I rebuilt the front the front end, king pins, spring perches, bearings, so the...

The guy at Westach who makes a replacement 20-0-20 ammeter 3D prints the housing that is behind the instrument panel. Works great and looking at the dash from inside the car you would never know.

Mt Washington is a huge ice climbing destination and many go there to train for higher mountains out west or in Europe or Nepal. Big number of the deaths are in Huntington and Tuckerman Ravines where the ice climbing takes place. I climbed there when I was in my 20’s.

I have one in my car and at different engine speeds it matches the current with my digital multimeter within 1/2 amp which is pretty good. I am very happy with it and the judges at a MARC touring class event did not notice anything was different. The Westach folks were great to work with as...
