Re: Close call with the battery!

Re: what stops the fuel while uphill parking
On a steep hill, nothing will stop the fuel from weeping out the jet, I guess. A good reason for those who park on steep hills to shut off the fuel valve and run the engine out of gas. Some older...

Re: Knucklehead drivers
Here in Mass., most accidents seem to be poor decisions at a too high of a speed on the highways. The side roads have crack ups too, but keep in mind, our roads are paved-over cow paths from the...

Re: Car Radios
I'm wondering how an original tuning head (cables), would mate up to completely new
guts in the radio case. This sounds like a very expensive undertaking.

Re: Bracket on firewall
Possibly a "part" of an old battery box assembly? Or, perhaps part of an old "Up-starter".
There were many companies that sold the parts to move the battery up under the hood on Model A's & other...

Re: Snowday
It surely isn't a "rare" thing around here. Every week during winter I see wrecks and car damages from flying ice and snow chunks flying off trucks and cars on Rt. 95 through Mass. and 14 miles north...

Re: 28 Roadster
Possibly a recovered theft. That car is pretty beat up for a new car, check out the dented up radiator core too.

Re: Rag hanger
Yes, I was referring to the Model A, rag on axle accessory. Looks like the poor A has some pretty worn out king pins too.

Re: Rag hanger
I'm guessing that '30 rag hanger is only about 12-15 years old. The '39 Chevy may be dirty but in good shape. A post-war photo? That prototype 7-11 is still using a visible pump out front? Could be...
