I have original shocks that need to be rebuilt. Who does that these days? Thanks, Dave B

It helps to have the wires in the correct locations. Switched the wires on the solenoid and it works like it should! I guess if I take wires off I should take a picture first. Thanks for the help. Dave

I need to switch the battery wire and wire to starter that are on the solenoid. Thanks, for the picture. I'll let you know if the solves the problem.

Wiring made me think. Which wire attaches to which side on the solenoid? I may have that the wrong way. Dave

Working on an 8BA flathead. Car sat for years and now I'm working to get it running. Sent the distributor and coil out for repair. Rebuilt fuel pump and got it car to run. Battery voltage at coil. Starter decided to quit so I had it rebuilt except for starter drive and spring which appeared to...

I just replaced a shut off valve yesterday that had been on the car for 2 years and not had 5 gallons of gas through it. Took it apart to find an "O" ring was the sealing method. Not well built. Started using 100% gasoline in all my old cars. Noticed with first tank that the cars ran smoother...

Deluxe Stanchions.

Just checking to see if anyone might have a pair of 1930 Deluxe Roadster stanchions for sale. They seem to be unavailable.

Anyone know where to get top iron wood kit for a 1930 Standard Roadster? I've checked multiple vendors without ant success. Thanks

I'm new to this car. Trying to install top bows on Deluxe top roadster and need measurements. What is the distance at the top between stanchions. Need this to get front header bow in the correct position. Second and third bow line up on the bow itself. Thanks for the help.

OK. I have been able to adjust the door --- mostly. It still sticks. I have noted that I need shims for the striker. It seems that the latch may be what is sticking. I bought an aftermarket latch. Are they known to be a problem??

Thanks for the assist. I could reach the latch from inside the car. Small taps on the wheel broke it loose and door opened. My lucky day!!

While replacing door latch on the drivers door on a Victoria and adjusting mechanism on the body, the door is now stuck shut. Any suggestion?

I did have to remove exhaust manifold because there was no other way. Fortunately it had been off before I got the car and all the bolts came off without problems. The only issue with reassembly was getting the shifter set up. Car steers great now and will be a pleasure to drive!

All sounds pretty much straight forward. I currently have everything disconnected but it looks like I would have to remove the exhaust manifold. Waiting for help to arrive at this point and will proceed.

Is the steering box removal the same on a "56?

Looks like lots of useable information in the manual. Thanks

Just picked up a T85C -1A with R11 OD and I believe 2 T86 w/ R10 OD. Will be checking for length and shaft diameters. Should be interesting!

I have already adjusted the steering box per shop manual. Apparently the car is an early '56. The top looks like the left picture.
