Re: Model A serial number verification

No one has mentioned a bonded title issued by the state. Sold my A powered hot rod with a Colorado bonded title that was accepted in New Jersey.

Re: Luck Selling on this Site?

I've had great luck with my "Grab Boxes". I'll take 10 or 12 items and put them in a plastic crate and put a single price including freight. I'm not in the Model A used parts business, but I'm in...

Re: Tow Insurance

I have a tilt bed aluminum trailer with a 10,000# winch and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve helped pickup a dead car and take it somewhere. Don’t ask to borrow it though! I quit loaning my...

Re: Ford and racing

I was at the first Goodguys Del Mar show and got a lot of questions about the A engine in my Zipper roadster and pointed to the lettering on the back. I said that Ford was still making A crate...

Re: Wheel Weights

I spin balance the drums and wheels separately and then as a unit. Studs are marked so that the wheels are always installed correctly. Used good old clip on rim weights.

Re: Gauges, Meaningful Ones

Re: Club Tag Topper

Had these made as a Telluride Rotary Club fund raiser. They’re reproductions of toppers that the Idarado mine employees had in the 1950’s. Found the source in a Hemmings ad.

Re: Cheeky parking

Here’s cheeky parking! Local cars & coffee is put on by the Porsche club. My Model A powered roadster screws up their lineup! Porsche owners have no sense of humor…asked me to move and I refused.
