    I dont really remember this, but if you do a search for "huckster" you can find plenty of pics for your memories. Good Luck

    Battlefield Model A Parts in MO

    I bought some stuff from him at Asheville a few years back, seemed like a decent enough guy. Never did any mail order stuff though. Good Luck

    Another Scammer

    They can at least use the address to case your place. Having been the recent victim of a stolen 55 Chevy, these cocksuckers are getting brave. I know personally, several people who have lost property to thieves in the last 6 months or so. Most coming into your yard and taking stuff in the...

    Hendersonville, North Carolina

    Sky Top and Granddads, both apple orchards have cider, doughnuts etc. Carl Sandburgs house just down the road in Flat Rock. Irish pub on the main drag called Hannah Flannigan's has excellent corned beef and cabbage. They used to have all you can eat crab legs, not sure if they still do that...

    Adjustable Tappets

    I couldn't get two normal wrenches to fit in there. I found some of the thin wrenches used for changing the grinding wheel on some of my 4" grinders worked good. Good luck.

    Toyota chassis

    Ive seen several nice Model A's gutted to build a hot rod. Find somebody doing that and you could likely get the whole running gear for a good price, they typically just want the body and the title. Good Luck

    swap car show at Fletcher, NC

    I didnt make it this year, either. They were predicting 90% chance of rain the day before, and I had an opportunity to work overtime, so stayed home and made money instead of spending it to buy more stuff I dont use. :) I'm sure I'm not the only one the weatherman scared away. As it turned out...

    Fan belt without notches on the underside...

    X2. If anybody else reading the thread wants this size belt WITH the notches, ask for a BX-41. They tend to run cooler and last longer when wrapped around a tight radius, at least that the is the theory behind the notches. YMMV. Good Luck!

    Mechanic

    I think at one point or another, we have all tried to wean the car off that nasty old gas, only to find it won't cooperate. :) Better luck tomorrow!

    New parts @#$%^&*!!!

    Maybe the picture doesn't do it justice, but it looks like it's touching to me, just a little bit, at the very corner of the washer. That was the idea of the conical washer, so it could **** and take care of that misalignment. I believe you could spend a few minutes with a die grinder and a...

    Leaking head gasket

    I'm not a fan of backing the nuts off before re torque, but if you do choose to do it that way, go half way, say 30lbs, in Sequence, and then on to 55, in the correct order. Like was stated, you may have drive it and do this a few times before it ever takes a set. Good luck!

    What Are Your Thoughts On Using a Honeycomb Radiator?

    It's always interesting to me to see what people did to get by, when money was short and times were hard. I'd run it, if it was in good shape. Good luck!

    I cant answer the "where did it go", but I just always use the reply, and not the quick reply, and it seems to work ok. I had trouble with the quick reply, too, so that's why I dont use it. Good Luck.

    1928 Bill of Sale from NJ and converting it to a new title- NJ DMV advice needed

    Re: 1928 Bill of Sale from NJ and converting it to a new title- NJ DMV advise needed I dont have any experience in your state, so just consider this a bump to the top. Best thing I can say is just call the DMV from a pay phone, :rolleyes: and ask some questions. Good Luck

    Never too late

    I hope you make it to a 100, and beyond.:) Thanks for your service to our country, not so many left from your generation. I guess I am in a club too of sorts...I can say I have bought parts from the " longest term member of MARC". :D.

    Never too late

    I dont really figure I'll make it to 90, but if I do I hope I still feel like buying another Model A. Nice story, thanks for sharing.

    paint $$

    Best paint job post I've seen in a long time. Really brings the amount of work involved into perspective for those that dont know. I was going to suggest learning to live with a not-so-good paint job, but i like the detailer suggestion.Good Luck!

    I could not sit idle, have a new project

    I think you'd have a lot of fun taking the speedster down to Mason's in November. You and Cotton could set up together. Nice work:)
