Oh, that is an easy question: ......because you can so easily haul your cow in the front seat: .....and a Model A can also be easily used to power your sheep shearing sheers (and a Model A even comes with an oiler to keep the sheers running smoothly): ....and its low gearing is...

I'm 6'4" with size 13 shoes and fit the best in my 1930 Cabriolet with its adjustable seat slid as far as possible to the rear (which gives me more room to slide my feet in and out of the car). I also fit well in a 1930/1931 Tudor which is easy to get in and out of with its slightly larger...

Yeah, but the day that your check gets stolen out of the mail (which happens quite frequently here in the D.C. area) and then your bank account gets emptied, that small credit card fee will look like a bargain.....just saying. Plus, when paying with your credit card, you will also get hotel...

Shell out some more money and get a thermal imaging camera. That will visually show you where the high and where the low temperatures are located on whatever you point it. It is also great for showing where you need more insulation on your house walls, around your car body, on the radiator...

Those would make great fireplace frames to outline the fireplace opening in your home......like this one: Brad in Maryland .

Have you checked the polarity of your coil? I had a similar problem where it ran fine on flat roads, but up a hill or at full speed, it seemed to choke out. It turned out that I had installed the wires on the coil backwards. Once I switched them around, the problem was gone. Viel Spaß, Brad...
