I don't think they mail out from Garden City, but you can drop in at the MARC headquarters and talk to them about it.

Re: Model A plus a drone Neat video

Cow path? Cows don't make paths like that. May be a farm lane, but could even be a town road. Everyone does not live in "freeway land". Certainly not in Sweden. :)

Re: ethanol stripping

Buy ethanol free gas when you can. I buy at least ten gallons a week for my lawn mowers and tractors, and use it in my Model A's whenever I can get it.

Re: Double AA Lug wrench?

I have a 15" one with no numbers visible on it. I also have a Budd wrench with a number, and different length, which I am guessing is a little later than the AA wrench.

Re: First car??

My first car was a '48 Kaiser that Grandpa had quit driving when he got a '56 Buick. I used to give the neighborhood kids thrill rides up and down the lanes on Grandpa's farm, which had steep enough...

Re: model a style 28-29 or 30-31

I voted for 28-29 style. Just to tease my fellow club members, I always tell them the later 30-31 models are just the result of cost-reduction programs.

Re: 1929 STEEL BACK 60C Blind Back HISTORY

Ron, that type of blind back (with an insert top) was what replaced the 60C body in late 29, and it is numbered 170-A. The 60C body is a very interesting design, and is shorter than the 170-A. You...
