I was able to save the USA made tube that was installed in the 1980 by cutting the valve stem off and installing a metal valve stem

I was able to return them for a refund. I was going to order one from Snyder’s but they don’t tell you in advance what the shipping would be.

Has anyone here used these tires and if so what was your take on them?

Update: the tubes didn’t fit. The valve stem were to fat and would not fit through the hole in the rim.

I have ordered them and will report back once I try them out, plus free shipping!

I saw these on amazon and was wondering if this size would work on 1931 models A 19 inch wheels.

I am looking to buy new 19 inch inner tubes for my 1931 roadster. Has anyone purchased them through amazon? If so which did you buy. I saw some that were for a motorcycle 19x5.0 but it stated it was for 20 inch wheels. Thanks for any guidance

I have what I believe is an H&H motor in my 1931 roadster that has been making quite a bit of noise. I’m planning on pulling the motor and take it a part to see if I’m capable of doing a refresh on the motor. I do know it has inserts and if they need to be replaced how do I find out what kind...

I have a 31 deluxe roadster that we just drove in a parade and it started acting up and wouldn’t idle and making strange sounds like either the throw out bearing or alternator bearing is going out and also started a knocking sound. I don’t know much about this motor, who built it etc. other than...

If there is no damage to the crank can the insert bearings just be replaced?

I have a motor that I don’t know who built it but it is inserted and this last weekend we did a parade and somewhere in the motor or trans noise started and a slight knock. The motor would not idle and either the alternator bearings or throw out bearing is going out. I am planning in the near...

Even though I don’t understand most of everything of what is written, it is very exciting to see this coming together. I know I will need at least one motor. Can’t wait. Thanks Terry.

When my wife and I got married we used her 31 roadster as the wedding car and I found some nice just married decorations at party city. I found “just married magnet letters and just married flags that attache to roll up windows” I was able to attach the flags to our wing window glass.

I have always done my own body and paint work. I do it to satisfy myself. I still use lacquer as it is very forgiving and easy to touch up. I did this 30 roadster about four years ago and all the materials to do the bodywork and paint work came in around $900 dollars. I was going to post the...

In all those years in storage, how did they keep it dust free. It looks like it was stored n a regular garage. Did they never crank the motor to keep it lubed? Is it the original oil in the crank case?

I live in Astoria Oregon but moving to kalispell Montana next month.

31 coupe, 31 roadster, 30 roadster and a 31 Chrysler coupe. I am planing on selling the 30 roadster

This is why I am always contemplating going with a modern motor in my model A's instead of getting the original motors rebuilt. Or may be wait till Tod gets his new model A motors done.

Love the project. If it were me I would fix as much of the rot as I could and assemble the body with scars and all and enjoy driving it. Or you could look for replacement panels at your local swap meet. Either way I believe this is a great project to learn on. Enjoy

I added the electric shutoff to my wife's 31 roadster and added a push pull on and off switch that I mounted to one of the dash rail screws. You can't even tell it is there and my wife loves the convince
