I only use mine for people when I am in a parade at very slow speeds. Jack

Just finished looking at the pictures of the entire lineup of all the cars coming to my neck of the woods, and they are awesome. There were some '31 model A's that I wouldn't mind putting in my garage, including a Murray Town Sedan, green on green, '31 Roadster, and a '31 RPU. These appeared...

You might try giving Bert's in CO a shout. Jack

Nealy closing it, as you stated, is very subjective with each carb. On some it might be 1/8, 1/4,just depends. The way I do mine is by "ear." I've had both Zenith and Tilly. I have three spare Tilly carbs and two spare Zeniths and none are alike. Try the ear method and when you find what seems...

These are nice pics, thanks for sharing! Jack

Personally, I prefer to drive mine anywhere and everywhere, but if you get your enjoyment out of hauling yours around in a trailer from show to show, who am I to judge you. To each his own. Jack

I always try to catch Wayne Carini when I can, but sometimes he misses the mark on setting values on the cars he brings to auction. In the past he had a RPU that he set a reserve of 30K on and he seemed genuinely surprised that it didn't sell. He is a very talented restorer and seems to have...

It's only called rust if you are trying to buy it, and it's called patina if you are trying to sell, lol. Jack

Neat stuff, however, as a complete coward, I always remove the chocks BEFORE I fire up the engine, lol. Jack

For someone not electrically inclined, I would also suggest the Logo-Lite system. It is so easy that even I can do it------and I am the worst person in this forum to have as a helper in all matters of an electrical nature. Just make sure you have a few spare one amp fuses on hand. Never...

It's a Northern Electric model, Pat. 1915-1920 in perfect working condition and completely restored by a retired ATT employee I bought it from a phone store in Cincinnati 20 years ago. I think I paid 250 bucks for it back then. What sets it apart from the tacky reproductions is that it has a...

Orlando's chapter of MAFCA was in full force in the Veteran's day parade yesterday and was televised on local (ch. 13). There were about 10 or 15 cars, all pristine and all appeared to have working horns! Jack

This one is for Rusty. If the image doesn't show it's because of computer problems. Jack

Most folks I know go out of their way to put chemicals in their tanks just to offset the harm that crap does to their car's performance. JMHO. Jack

Yeah, kinda rare on a coupe-----but can come in handy on a tour! The old dual mounts really shine best on a fordor, JMHO. :) Jack

Fifty years ago when I got my first A, my dad bought me a set of tires and correct wheels for my birthday. I painted the wheels bright red, lol. When I put the front set on, I had a picture taken with two of the new tires/wheels. The picture is in my forum album. My taste has changed just a...

I knew I could count on you guys for diversity! Jack :)

I'm kicking the tires on a '30 Tudor that I will probably buy. The car is currently black with "fire engine wheels" which I will definitely change for a more subdued color. I'm considering Tacoma Cream or Black. I'm currently leaning towards black, and the bald tires need to be changed out as...

Margaret Dunning, the 102 year old lady who is featured on You Tube and other venues who has been seen sporting around coast to coast in her antique Packard has just been awarded a full scholarship to college where she will seek a degree in Business. I wouldn't be surprised if she winds up as...

Mitch, these are great pictures! Jack
