    Coker Tires

    Back in the 40's, Down in Ft Worth, when a tire tread got worn to about a 16th left, the local gas station would regroove the tread with a heated hand held regrooving iron. Was about 18 when I watched this.

    Fuel problem on my '40

    My humble opinion: Your power valve took a dump. If you order one, be sure it fits your 3 bolt carburetor.

    Strange Noise

    Trying to chase down an under hood slapping metal sound while driving my '40. Months ago started with a ticking sound. Now it's loud slapping metal when accelerating up a grade. Tempo slows near the top in tune with slowing engine rpm's. Is this something I could expect from a leaking exhaust...
