Have used the axle mounted tow bar several times, they work very good. Have never been a fan of the bumper mounted tow bars, fear of the bumper getting pulled off, and losing the car. When my dad would pull his Model A with a tow bar, he would always put the Model A in 2nd or 3rd gear (never...

Don't know what type of plate that is... our collector plates are blue and do not have month or tags on them.

I am looking for feedback on what others may think they are worth. Not posting for sale yet.

This is one that the others here from Wisconsin will understand. The state of Wisconsin issues collector plates for vehicles 20 years and older, sequentially numbered. The collector plate number issued is for all your collector vehicles, they will add the letter "A" for a second vehicle, and...

I had the same problem when I drove my 1985 Ford Escort, 4 speed manual transmission. 1st was up and to the left, fourth was down and to the right. To get into reverse, which was right and dowj, you had to press a button to release the gate to shift into it. My AA has a gate release lever for...

Just remember the one obvious element, that is often overlooked. You still need to be able to stop. Adding all this power and speed, make sure your brakes can handle it.

I called the national office, thinking everyone's magazine would be screwed up. Turns out they get about 3 calls on this problem with each magazine mailing. Time to change printers?

Received my Model A News yesterday. Anyone else missing pages 9-16 and 65-74, but have two sets of pages 1-8 and 73-80?

Good question, I am sure they will insure anything, but you might have to pay extra for newer. I was asking myself the same question, while reading through their Drive publication. They were reviewing 2023 sports cars. Those are only 1 year old, and not antique.

You were told, just not directly.... I only noticed because the rate for Roadside Assistance dropped by $105. The renewal fee had an asterisk by it, and many years working in a print shop, just had to see what it referred to. The next line down said "*Thanks to a more streamlined emergency...

Got my renewal today for my Hagerty insurance and roadside assistance. I always talked highly of their roadside assistance program, as the one I was in, covered all my modern and antique vehicles, along with my travel trailer. They would even pick up my full-sized AA Truck, and flatbed it...

I had /have the same problem with mine - the blinkers work, but the pilot light does not. Checked voltages and wiring with the multi-tester, checked the bulb, all good. I ended up making a buzzer that buzzes when the blinkers are on. I ran a wire from each wire from the turn signal feed, through...

Stopped by the scrap yard to see their payout on steel, only 3 cents a pound.

Do I want to get "out" of the Model A Hobby? No, I enjoy driving my Model A's, and love to work on them - even when they frustrate you with a simple fix. As I said in original post, I no longer see a need to have all these Model A engines in storage, last count was 20. Would like to 'thin...

Between my dad and myself, we have collected a collection of Model A engines and blocks. These range from just the block, with all the internal components, to a complete engine, with the transmission still attached. As both my dad and I are both aging, and realizing that all these projects we...

This is what I use, a KwikLift. According to their website, due to the cost of steel, they have temporarily stopped production. If you look on Craigslist, they do pop up from time to time. You drive up the unit, like a ramp, and then use a hydraulic jack to lift the end up, and then extend the...
