    Sisters wedding

    Took my car to my sisters wedding. Just showing off. I'm the one kneeling on the left. Eli my brother-in-law is standing on the drivers side. It was a big hit. Took them through town and had everyone beeping. It was a blast.

    Front Wheel Wobble at Low Speed

    I had this same problem with my 30 coupe. Front end seemed tight like yours, but the steering was loose. Took the coloum out and adjusted the 2 tooth worm and it totally eliminated the problem. His should have the 7 tooth worm gear and isn't adjustable, but some new guts should fix it. Or just...

    3rd Brake light

    I did this to my coupe and couldn't be happier. Now a clear bright red light is visible. Easy to install too. Just a couple of minutes and a little dirt on you back from the shop floor and good to go. Highly recommend in today's world. Love it or hate it, things have changed and no one is...

    Gas pedal bracket

    I think everything is ok. Your spring is pushing it up. Once you put the floorboards in it should hold it down. Hopefully someone else can take a second look for ya.

    I changed out my tracks and riveted on new liners on all 4 wheels. Cleaned, painted, fitted and adjusted everything as you suggested. They work great with no squeal and no slop at all. Thanks dudes!

    Money is the big thing with us young people. I got lucky and met a guy who was going to a home and had to unload his car. A nice car, but not a fine points car... anyway, I was stoaked to get it. I've seen model A cars for 12 to 15 thousand bucks, and they were nice cars don't get me wrong...

    Brake help

    I took the restoration books very serousily. 51 7/16 long brake rods. Each one checked and rechecked. Thinking I nailed it, down the driveway I went. It wasn't bad stopping but I could tell it was a botch job on my part. Then Google took me to this fordbarn.

    Replacement kit it is then. Now if it would just warm up past 5 degrees I'll get the backing plates off and go for it.

    I'm in pa. Real close to where the groundhog sees his shadow every year. Everything else seems good. Good bushings and little wear on the rollers. I'll weld them up and grind them back.

    Thanks for the replies guys. I'm 28 and bought by coupe in October. I've wanted an A for a long time and just bought a house with a big garage. I also restore hit and miss engines as well so a garage was a must. Found the car in town and bought it. I'm doing this brake job right. There were...

    Brake help

    Hi everyone. I have torn my brakes down for repair on my '30 coupe and have some questions about the rollers. My roller track that sits behind the rollers looks worn, but I really don't know what a good one looks like. Can I file these flat and be okay or do they have to be replaced? Attached...
