Never again!!!!!!!!!!!

[31 Model A]

Ever ever again, for any reason other than an emergency and that will have to be life threatening, while I have Sarah or any other A as long as I have an A with a rumble seat, remove it and then return it. NEVER again. Those of you that take your rumble out, wham bam thanka mam style, ZIP two screws out and WaaaLAA!!!!! Not with Sarah!!!!!!! and that's all I'm going to say about that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

W O W!! Slow down!!! Is Sarah a person or a 'car'??

Personally I view a rumble seat just like a loaded gun. Handled with precautionary measures and they are safe and can be enjoyed. Be foolish with your actions ...and they are dangerous!

( That's all I'm gonna say about that!! )

31 Model A's post is very hard to understand. I am not quite sure what he is trying to get at. If he is sold on rumble seats, no problem. Not very good English.

I had a hard time figuring out exactly what his rant was all about.
• Taking the cushion out to make room for cargo?
• Converting it back to a trunk?

or what????

(And that's all I'm going to say about that!)

I don't take the rumble seat out. Have no reason to. So there has not an issue, and, thats all I'm going say about that.

I'm relieved. I'm not frustrated, but I must admit I'm confused.

he means to R&I the rumble seat
he met his match with this woman
she kicked his ass

I never take out the rumble seat. Er.... wait, I have a Tudor. Well then, never for me either!

[31 Model A]

I took the rumble out, and to leave it out and use it as a trunk, second to fix the handle lock since it had no key. When I took it out, the previous owner did not use the D nuts and screws to secure the bottom part of the backrest. It was two wood screws and a washers drill into the lid frame. No problem, I was leaving the seat out anyway. Took the handle off and took it to a locksmith where he cut a new key to fit the original tumblers. Picked it up today, worked fine until I went to lock the lid down. The latch coming out of the cylinder is not slotting itself when I go to lock it. The slotted circle inside the lid is too far away for the latch to fit down inside. OK, so the rumble can't be locked, so I decided to put the rumble back................sure!!!! Back went in OK but getting it bolted down at that angle by someone not so agile anymore is another thing. I did order and get the proper D bolts but finding the hole at my age, is a different matter.......to make a story even longer, the rumble is back in, secured, seat in place and secured and the handle is back as it was.......................

I was fighting cramps both in my fingers and brain when I posted this thread, sorry for the confusion. It was meant to relieve myself of impure thoughts.

I love the way everyone can kick each other's ass and still be friends.

I'm disappointed. So, all those stories about the ladies coming to visit when their husbands weren't looking weren't true after all??

I'd tell ya how that's done but, I've sworn off the "Bullshit and Brilliance".

[Mitch//pa]

remember your working on the "rear end" of the car. it could be dangerous back there

[31 Model A]

What's worse about all this, the back rest might be secure but.............the right side is not tight at the top and I know tomorrow I'm going to be right back out there doing it all over again, I don't like half ass jobs done. This time though I'll just loosen the bottom screws and then lift the back up and out, get the latch a bit tighter and then reset it. Damn, I probably won't even sleep tonight thinking about it................that's just the way I am.
