Has any Fordor body owners had experience with body wood supplied by Classic Wood in NC?

Thank you. Were you satisfied with their product? Do you know of anyone who has bought the fordor kit?

Can anyone recomend a good body wood supplier for Model A Fordor Sedans? I have a 60-C Briggs Steelback. I have heard that wood kits for different suppliers do not fit and drilled holes do not match up with origianl patterns. These kits are very expensive and I don't want one that does not fit...

Thanks Guys

Which side do rear brake levers (that attach to brake rods) that slip on break actuators goes toward the backing plate and hub - flat or beveled side? Same question on emergency brake levers.

Turned out to be carb. Installed another cab. after checking compression on each cylinder and ran good. Plenty of power. Old carb was wrapped and sucking air. Thanks for everyone's help.

Thanks guys. Found that the spark is not strong as it should be. Installed coil, points, and condenser but still not as strong as my other car that runs correctly. Any other idea of what could cause weak firing? car runs, idles rough and has low power. backfires out the carb. when accelerated...

My engine was rebuilt by a local shop. They did not por rods and mains. When started up engine has a knock like a rod or main for about 5 seconds then runs smooth. Oil seems not to stay in journal over night. Some say to let it go and some say send to James Rogers in NC and have him rebuild.

I recently had my model A engine rebuilt. The first time it starts each day, there is a knock that sounds like a piston slab. Very noticeable. It only last for a few seconds then goes away. Sound like the front part of the engine. I thought it might be from chocking the carb. too much but...

how long should the screw be? The condenser came with a copper screw.

Than makes more sense. Thank you

thank you. If I understand, it goes between the condenser tip and bar on the passenger side of the car and the copper screw goes in the drivers side of the car though the bar into the condenser,

Is there a fiber spacer that goes between the condenser and the lower distributor plate. The condenser grounds to the distributor on the side and there is a brass or copper screw that screws in the condenser on the other side of the distributor. I was told there had to be a fiber insulator...

What about the outside rubber extensions?do they go toward the frame ?
