    Title Woes

    I live in Ohio. I bought my 29 roadster project with a title from a gentleman in New York state. He had never transferred the title to a New York one, so the title I got was from a western state, Kansas or Nebraska if my memory serves. The reason I didn't transfer the title was because the...

    '32 Grill Shell

    This is not a restoration question. Hope I don't get banned!:eek: I'm looking at mounting a reproduction 32 grill and shell on my 29 "A" pre-war banger hot rod project. I messaged the guy selling 32 shells on ebay because he said he would help anyone mounting one of his on an A Model. But I...

    Looking for information on mounting a roadster top

    I have been searching the site without luck. I would like to find simple instructions on how a top gets mounted to a 29 roadster. I have nothing on my project car. I believe I would need a wood kit to go around the back of the interior section behind the seat. I did find the Ford Wood site...

    WTB 28 29 Roadster Body

    Hi! Just sending out a feeler to see if anyone near me has a Model A roadster body. I bought a project last year with a good engine and frame, but a fiberglass body. I'm at the point now of investing in the interior and bodywork, and I don't want to spend $$ on glass. I'd really prefer...

    Yeah, I couldn't believe it. Over at the HAMB I'm still a grenade tester with more posts. :D

    Any of you flathead guys running the Speedway repro 97?

    I'm building a Model A four cylinder with some performance upgrades. The engine presently has a two barrel downdraft manifold with a Ford AAI carb that I rebuilt as best I could. I am having fits with the fuel system and I'm thinking about getting a new carb in the process of elimination...

    Judging Standards

    Does anyone ever see the irony in the fact that utilitarian vehicles built on an assembly line are now preened prima donna's that have every nut and bolt inspected for authenticity? I was sad to see my wife's Focus traded in. It's destined to be a collector's item. I can just imagine Focus clubs...

    Stone Guards

    I finally bought a chrome radiator shell. I know I'm the worst kind of Model A owner because I didn't wait to seek out an original nickle plated one.:( But, hey, it's my car. Now I'm thinking about putting on a stone guard, but I can't decide if that would make me more of a Model A dork...

    I was proofreading the grammar. If you want to edit for body parts and body functions, go for it!:D

    A slightly disassembled, or slightly assembled gearbox

    I had problems with my original steering which is documented here. I needed to steer my car, though, so I could work on other things. So it's still on the car and useful for test rides. I bought a column and box unseen with the intention of rebuilding it myself. It was in sad shape too. The...

    Apology

    Mike, I participated in the thread you are referring to. I thought everyone had their say. Like everything in life this will pass, and pass quickly, from everyone's consciousness. I teach writing. I've read thousands of papers by young people struggling to get their points across. Writing is...

    Lion Speed Head

    Hi Brent! I'm relatively new here, so I don't know much of the history. I honestly did think your first post on the subject was written with some sarcasm and inuendo. Maybe that's the culture of the site, so that's really something I can't make a judgement about. You did have a few...
