    "New" option for turn signals

    I have never installed electronic turn signals on my Model A. For the last 48 years of ownership, I have just waved my arm out the window to my bewildered fellow motorists signaling my turns, sometimes only to get a return "wave" back! I never had the desire to install another taillight...

    Top Prop Lock Washer

    I have a '31 Cabriolet and was never sure how to properly install those lock washers. They just didn't make any sense to me how they would lock the nut---when the tab is folded unto the nut both the washer and nut just spin as a unit until they both fall off!! :confused: My solution, omitted...

    Tractor Supply Coil

    Exactly right Purdy! :D While you're at it get yourself some W-18 plugs, open up the gap some, use the "B" distributor cam for more dwell and the flamethrower 40KV coil for some added spark, not to mention some real snappy starting----works well for me! :cool: Thanks Purdy!

    '31 Cabriolet door garnish question

    Don't know if the Canadian cabbies were different, but here's a couple of pictures that I got from Norm L. for a 68B, USA version. My '31 68B cabbie has those garnish pieces faux wood painted the same as the dash, unlike Norm's pictured here. Don't know which way is more correct.

    How to Start the Model "A" shown in 45 seconds

    Really dumb way to hand crank!! A backfire would have planted his face into his motometer permanently! Always one handed pulling up and not wrapping your thumb around the crank.

    Late 1931 Ford A Model Coupe Dash

    When I ordered a dash lamp assembly for my early 1931 68B Cabriolet there were two styles available, and of course, I ordered the wrong one! Rather than return it I simply shortened the bracket to fit. :rolleyes: Measure the distance between the holes and ask someone at Snyders which one fits...

    Lighting for speedometer and gas gauge

    CarlG--if you're running 12V this is the ticket ($6.95): https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...fit/3698/8009/ I have one in my dash rail and is a PERFECT FIT and am very happy with it. I also put them in the cowl lamps and tail light...

    Lighting for speedometer and gas gauge

    No bad ground or bad connection---the incandescent 12V bulb that I originally had in there burned bright and HOT (for the last 40 years). 12V LED bulb now burns bright and COOL! :cool: 24V bulb :p

    Lighting for speedometer and gas gauge

    I am running 12V and I tried the 24V bulb you suggested some time ago. Total waste of time as that bulb barely made the filament even glow! Instead, I replaced it with a 12V LED bulb which works great with no heat.:cool:

    Reducing Fumes and Noise

    Anybody know of a Fumaze type setup made for a Model B? As you may know, the Model B oil fill tube is much larger in diameter than the Model A.

    Torque on a vintage Cragar OHV head

    Any suggestions for torque on an original cast iron Cragar OHV head that has been in place on a B block for over 50 years and never been torqued??? There is a little seepage through the head gasket at the rear of the engine and am getting a little oil in the coolant (but not vice versa).

    12 VDC Wiring

    Hey Purdy, which modern starter drive do you run/suggest? I'm running 12V on an original 6V starter and my bendix jingles a bit occasionally :rolleyes:.

    Model A Brake Lights

    For years (40+) I ran an original single tail light with original lens (yellow on top). I run a 12 volt system. Last year, I decided to get the reproduction red lens with STOP etched into the top section. Then more recently, I decided to switch to LEDs for all lights except headlamps. I...
