Thanks for all the help! Yes I am using all of the original parts that came off the car. I'll get someone to help me over the next few nights to get it straight. Got to get this baby on the road. This is my first model a and I only drove it twice before I tore her down! Thanks again!

Hello, I'm putting my 29 roadster back together after disassembling it. My problem is that the rumble lid don't line up very well. As seen by the pictures it is racked in every direction. When I took it apart it was never this bad. I did remove the quarters from the sub rails to fix them but...

Took me most of the day but got them tight and smooth as can be! Figured out the repro triangle pieces were just slightly to long. After a little shaping everything fell right into place! Thanks!

Just checked there up to $30 now!

Hello! I am attempting to put my 29 Roadster back together finally after two years of work. I don't like how the bumper lines up with the rear quarters on the back. I am trying to save what once was a disaster so I do have reproduction sub rails, rear wheel wells, and the triangular pieces in...

That helps a lot but I also need a photo of how the material tacks/attaches to the wood on top. Thanks!

Hi everyone! I had my upholstery guy to look at my 29 roadster this morning and in the two years since I took out my seat springs I have kind of forgotten exactly how the back of the front seat attaches to the car on the back. If I remember correctly when I took out the upholstery (or what was...

I used this type of primer on a tractor I restored a couple of years ago and on the frame of my model a that I am currently retoring. It throws on a very heavy coat. It is great if you have large amounts of pitting and small dents and dings to fill. If you are going to use it where you have very...

Does anyone run the six bladed plastic fans that you see in the catalogs? Are they any better or not for the driver cars?
