Re: Convert 1929 from Negative Ground back to Positive

Re: Tires

How is the ride at that pressure?Do the tires wear more in the middle being over pressured?

I run my American Classic radials at 35 psig and it rides really nice.

Re: Briggs Town Sedan door latch question

Since all Briggs fordor bodies are the same I would assume you have four model years to pick from. (except the very early ones)
