So sorry to hear of your loss. Our prayers are with you and your family.

Could it be Buddy Epsen in the drivers seat in the first photo?

Don't mean to hijack and know this not an "A" but, thoughtful idea back in the day.

I am looking for a copy of the Model A Service Bulletins. I would prefer the copy that was in the blue binder. Mitch

Wonderful news Mike...so very happy for you and you daughter! My grand daughter makes my days so much brighter. Mitch

Our prayers are with your daughter and your family.

Thanks. Marco's site has excellent information; been there several times. I know according to his site the color is Stone Brown but it also looks very similar to Manila Brown so, I thought I'd get some opinions from you all.

Looking for some help on the color of my roadster. I don't believe the color combo to be correct. I have been working (more like tinkering) on the mechanicals as first priority and may decide at some time in the future to work on restoration. But, right now she's a pretty good looking car; a...

I had the same thing happen to me today. Took my Roadster out for a quick trip this afternoon and a couple miles into it and she started choking, bucking and backfiring. I pulled over and she idled just fine but, acceleration was out of the question. It sounded like the fuel was boiling in...

My '30 Deluxe Roadster is this same brown color. Does anyone know if this is a correct color? If so, what would the correct trim color and wheel color be? BTW-I haven't purchased my restoration standards yet...soon.

Thanks for all the great responses. For Mike V and Hoop; responses have been especially helpfull for Florida requirements. I sent a description of my situation to the DMV and recieved the following information. Some my have a better understanding but, it is clear as mud to me right now...

Too late to look at what I should have done...just never thought that I would have this much trouble getting a title. Evidently I am misinterpreting the Florida DMV rules that state that a if the motor vehicle was not required to be titled then proof of ownership is a dealers bill of sale or...

Tried to title my 30 Roadster and was told by the Florida DMV that they would not accept a Bill of Sale. According to them the car had to be titled by the seller and then transferred to me or I had to get a judge to issue a declaration of judgement releasing the car to me. This is the first...

I second that! As a "newbie" to the "A" I still read the catalog(s), they really do help answering a lot of questions. My wife thinks I'm nuts reading a parts catalog...but it is informative and makes for a great wishlist, just like the old days of the Sears catalogs and checking off what you...

That's what I thought from the wiring diagram but, it definetly has a third wire...and it is hot. I was checking the tail light area and only had one wire running to the tail light. There was electrical tape wrapped around the end of the cloth harness and when I removed it there were three wires...

I agree, I would rather have a separate harness and lights if I were to add turn signals too. Right now I want to stay as original as I can. I still need to trace that wire and find out why it is hot regardless. On another note; I don't seem to be having a charging problem (I just got her...

Should have mentioned what I'm working on. It's a 30 Roadster and yes it is mounted on the crossmember.Thanks for the info. I'll retrace and recheck my voltage from the battery to switch and then to the light. How about the third wire I mentioned? Hate to be a bother, I'm not bad at the...

Hate to beat a dead horse but, I need some advice. While working on getting the brake light to work I have discovered that in the harness (cloth covered) at the tail light there are three wires. One seems to be green, one black and the other I would guess to be yellow. I have looked at the...

Gulf Coast, Destin area. You?

Since last post I have run through the wiring and ignition (easy to do, wow! got to love the simplicity of it) and lo and behold, I was able to get power to the headlights, tail lights and distributor, all very good news. I have been "tinkering" with the A when I could make time. Anyway, long...
