Dave Melnor (?)
 

Has anyone seen Dave as of late? haven't seen the cool pictures he usually posts.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

He quit the site after being asked to cut back.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Ah, I see. Always looked forward to the pictures

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Bummer. We miss you and the postings, Dave. At least I do…

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

I also miss his pictures.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

I miss them too...

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

without going into it again... he was asked to put all his photographs into one thread instead of opening a new thread each and every time.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

He was initiating about 1/4 of the posts…..
I think it was logical what Ryan asked him to do. I found most of his pics marginally interesting but others more so from the above posts
Guess he was just offended…

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

I always looked forward to see Dave Mellor's pics as well, and I liked the separate threads with the comments for just the posted pic.....But it is what it is I guess...

There is truth in the idiom "Too much of a good thing".

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Dave last posted here in early April and hasn't logged into Fordbarn since early May. He's posting regularly on AACA

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

I'm not familiar with the capital AACA what is that?

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Antique Automobile Club of America. They have a set of forums.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

You're up early this morning, John...

Yes, Antique Automobile Club of America. They are set up differently than Ford Barn. They have separate Forums for each subject, like Pictures and Videos for example. https://forums.aaca.org/forum/108-photo-and-videos/

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Looks like he found another place to post a zillion photos - one at a time. I don't get it. Personally, I'm glad I don't have to sort through a bunch of pic posts just to see tech stuff. If I want to see random Model A pics, Google images has thousands of them.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Yeah, had to get going. Day 2 of helping a club member install a new clutch, Mitchell tranny and Mitchell O/D. We got behind yesterday when I discovered he had juice brakes, and the master cylinder had to come out to drop the old tranny. To compound it, he had an old (non-working) Bendix O/D in the car that needed to come out also - controls and cable, electrical, and speedo cable. We got the major components in today but still need another day to finish. I'm getting too old to spend all day long on a concrete floor under a Model A.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

I'm hearing you!! You friend is going to love the Mitchell Trans/O/D combo. I hope he ordered the trans with the 15% over 1st and 2nd. Really improves the jump from 2nd to 3rd.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

What vehicle did a Bendix OD originally come in? Or,was it made as an aftermarket unit for the A? Never saw one,but that means nothing. Bendix made hundreds of different products,so no surprise they made an OD unit.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Waorani…..yep

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

I have a Mitchell trans on order for November to pair with my O/D. Hope to have the Burtz engine built by then for a totally updated drive train.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Too Bad. I was in Dave's South Jersey Model Club for 3 years until GE destroyed RCA and we hadda move.

My question was about 4th of July parades. In my time, parades paid entrants
20 $ per car to be in their parade. We figggggiured it out we could be in 3 close town's parade on the 4th and still be home by lunch. The money we earned was our prime source of working capital.

Hello Dave

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

In an earlier post you stated "doesn’t affect me as I’ve never looked at one of them…not my bag!"

Yet you continue to have several comments in every recent thread about this situation. Ryan has dealt with it. He can ban me if he wants for stating this.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

My apologies for offending you.

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Beating a dead horse. This has been discussed over the past few months. Even Dave has moved on, why don’t we???

Back to Model A’s!!

Re: Dave Melnor (?)
 

Yes please...
