I have the Black & Decker ones. They are on a timer tho. I have heard too many horror stories including one local one where a tender left on 24/7 was the cause of a garage fire.

Good one ModelA29.....I think they will make a TV show to get more money, instead of "The Curse of Oak Island" it will become 'The Curse of Nikumaroro Island"

I am a member of the Model A Drivers Club of East Central Ohio. Even tho I cannot attend meetings most of the time, I joined just to make new friends & have some help in case of issues with my car. I feel it is a invaluable resource since not everyone knows about the nuances of the Model A these...

Yeah, I have Hagerty, Cherished Value is the way to go. Still can't figure out why the fire dept guys didn't want to help you right the car to eliminate a fire hazard since those guys are all about safety.....?

My 6V came from Rural King. 5 years old and still going strong......Battery tender in the winter months.

You got that right Ronn, I threw all those 'safety' spouts away and got the normal spout kits off Ebay with the little snap vents included. A battery powered pump that attaches to the cans makes filling my car a breeze. No runs, no drips, no errors......

Today I uncovered my A from putting it away in Oct for a long winter nap. All I did was have a battery tender (on a timer) and StayBil in the gas tank. Turned over once and fired right up, ran like a champ. Can't wait to go cruising!

BTW I have a tow bar that attaches to the bumper brackets I'll sell cheap if anyone is interested. Don't use it on a car without an engine tho, like mentioned above, it won't self-steer.

The link worked for me, not sure what the issue is. Sheryl Christie Car Collection, looks like she's in AZ.

Fitz, my original gloves have a "Grinnell Make" trademark on the wrist button if that helps any.

I happen to have an original pair that came with my Phaeton when my Dad bought it in '64... No not For Sale!

I've always had good luck with California Car Covers. If it's open transport make sure the cover is tight & secure all over so it does not flap and cause wear marks on your paint.

Regardless of what tenders everyone uses, do have them on timers or are they on 24/7? I have heard horror stories and also local resident had one catch fire and burn up two Challengers plus his garage. (Fire Chief who lives across the road confirmed that one btw.)

That answers that Don, Thanks.. Mosser was pretty evasive on the question so maybe they had issues with them. I know of no one else unless there is a private individual out there who would want to take on the job.

Update on Mosser Glass gearshift knobs. I inquired since we are a dealer. One person said they would have someone contact me. No one did. I had an employee pick up one of our orders and she inquired at the plant. The lady had no idea about any knobs. I emailed again and the second time they said...

"There are 2 oiling holes on the top of the throttle assembly (which is bolted to the back of the engine block), one on each side of the engine, that need to be oiled every time you change the engine oil. They are often overlooked." Wow Jim, I was not aware of those. Mine are cruded up so...

My car has always been that way, I pull the choke once and release quickly while cranking. Starts the same way cold or hot, spark fully retarded, gas lever all the way up. GAV set about 6-8 o'clock. After warm up GAV goes to about 10 o'clock. Same way starting, if I don't pull choke once and...

I agree with P.S., a club is excellent way to reach potential buyers. My Dad willed my A to me, and luckily my son wants it when I'm done...

There's a rod shop about 45 minutes away I have used many times for my Olds. He is in his 40's but knows about many different makes of cars. His shop is clean and he does top-quality work. I asked him if he could work on my Model A if I had the need and his eyes lit up and said "Bring it to me...

I fill mine up with non-ethanol and put a few glugs of either Sta-Bil, MMO, or Seafoam, whatever I have on the shelf at the time...I also take the carb off and spray it out with carb cleaner. All have worked great for me.....
