Heater manifolds are much less likely to "droop" than stock, non-heater manifolds. All the heater manifolds I have are straight as an arrow across all the exhaust ports.

There was a lot of talk at the GFV Civil War Weekend that there are new people in charge, and that this year's event may have been the last.

I couldn't resist it.....

This is a common complaint of new owners of WW2 and early civilian Jeeps,also. The seats are not adjustable, and the steering wheel is close to the seat. Guys end up selling a vehicle they really wanted before they found out it was just too uncomfortable for them.

If you had collected WW1 and WW2 uniforms and militaria like I did for many years, you would have soon noticed how small men were then-the vast majority of uniforms that were actually worn seem to be size 36 and 38-anything larger than a size 42 is rare. Size 42 was also the largest US...

This is the most important thing! I've changed a whole bunch of tires, on everything from motorcycles to farm tractors, and I feel that Model A tires were among the easiest ones I've done.

You use another wrench to turn the one that's in the diff plug.

I was at a swap meet a few years back, where a guy was selling bags of random Model A nuts and bolts for a few bucks-very, very useful to have. Using new lock washers is good, but does anyone make the coined-edge washers like the originals? a small detail, but very noticeable.

You really NEED the original-type wheel puller when removing the rear wheels. It screws onto the fine threads of the outer surface of the hub, and the center bolt pushes against the axle. With anything else, you run the risk of ruining your wheels. Remember,these wheels are mostly almost 100...

So-are you going to get that T out from under the collapsed barn?

I'll be sending my tank to Brent for that treatment sooner or later, when I get around to pulling it out of my truck. It's a late '31 tank, and that horizontal outlet fills up right away with sediment and rust. I'm going to spend the money and have it done right, once and for all.

I also vote for this-Takes all the end play out of the pump, and is hidden by the fan. Give this a try before you do anything else.

That's how my mother remembered a huckster that was in our small town back in the '30s and '40s-the body was green, like this one.

I've got a pole barn with shelves groaning under the weight of Model A, T, Jeep, and motorcycle parts. I know what will happen to that stuff when I'm gone-my son will have an auction, and a bunch of old guys just like me will move selected bits to their garages and barns, to be sold at another...

Yabba Dabba Dooo!

Radiator shops that can fix Model A radiators are a vanishing breed,too.

"Plow King"... I must be the only one here that remembers that old episode of "The Simpsons"

You never know how much you can get on a trailer until you try...

call this guy-Bob Whitaker-he deals in mainly later licence plates, but he knows the number for several other Michigan-based licence plate dealers. http://whits-brits.com

The instructions from the Michigan Secretary of State specify that a value must be assigned by either one of the online services like NADA, or a "registered Dealer"
