    Spray Paint

    Thanks to all. I don't have a real good place on the car where I can take an actual chip or sample from and give it to the paint guys. I think best bet is to ask for it by name, as the only green listed for a '29 coupe body is Vagabond Green. The color appears everywhere, door inners, trunk...

    Spray Paint

    I thought I saw somewhere a place where you could buy ford colors in a rattle can. Went through Synder's and Mac's but didn't see it. Anyone know where to buy it ? Also where to find a good color chip guide so as to get the right color for my 1929 coupe. It's a dark green. Thanks !

    Body Conversion Question

    Thanks all. I think ronn is probably right. Looks like I may be stuck with the coupe. Thought of making a "coupester" but again the issues are overwhelming. Different doors, "B" pillar rework, etc, etc. Thanks again

    Body Conversion Question

    I have a 1929 Coupe that I am thinking of converting to a Victoria, Phantom or Roadster with a body swap. If I do find a body for a reasonable price, could I use my existing cowl, gas tank, windshield assembly and just attach the balance of the body? If so, does anyone know of one for sale ...

    Replacing Water Pump

    Wow super comments guys. Thank you all for the time explaining the process. Cant wait to get started. FYI- Here in Michigan, I would not dream of not using antifreeze. I would be up all night knowing it's -20F out there.

    Replacing Water Pump

    Thanks guys for the input. Question- Do I just add these products to the current antifreeze solution ? Or should I drain and fill with water, then add the cleaners ? Also if the car has "studs" not bolts, will I have to remove the rad ? Hard job ? Also "studs" in a car that old sounds like...

    Replacing Water Pump

    Wow , What a long, cold, hard winter. Time to start working on the old 1929 "A" again. First up is a new water pump. Bought the Leakless A-8503-A from Synder's and I have a few questions. I think the radiator is gunked up pretty good so I'll want to clean it out before I install the new...

    so this just happened....

    I read all the responses because I too have to rebuild my ******. Reading all the parts that need to be replaced scares the bejeezers out of me. Would it be cheaper just to buy a rebuilt ****** ? Where is the best place to shop ?

    Windshield teardown

    Well, winter is here and its time to start a few restoration projects. First I'm going to attack the windshield. I did manage to get it off my 1929 coupe but I'm having a very hard time getting the old glass out. I cant even get the frame apart, as the horizontal screws at the top (2 per...

    2nd Gear Whine

    Yeah the noise is a cross between a whine and a rattle, real bad during deceleration. 5X greater than the first gear whine. I'll try the 50/50 mixe solution. Thanks !!

    Old Gas

    I think most people way over state the "expiration" date of gas. I have a friend who thinks gas "goes bad" in weeks. I think he's nuts. My gas "winters" in all my equipment just fine with no issues in the spring w/o any additives in the fall. I;ve heard that the government has stock piles...

    2nd Gear Whine

    Looking for some hints as to why my 29 Coupe has a bad 2nd gear whine. First gear is a little noisy and third gear settles right down with very little noise if any at all. 2nd gear is worse when you back off the gas. I'm thinking its just a bad gear in the trans. but I'd like to rule out any...
