Re: Jazz Age '28 Sport Coupe on Hemmings Auction

I had a buddy in high school who was into Model T. We had a friendly rivalry about whether it was better than a Model A. One time he said the A gas tank could blow up in my face. I replied, "Yeah,...

Re: getting into the Rumble Seat

Decades ago, my sister-in-law with her husband and five kids visited us. The wives took the two older ones shopping and left the men to babysit the rest. We loaded them in the rumble seat (they...

Re: Not even a Ford pulling

Well, he had the last laugh - Packard is no more but Ford and Lincoln still are. :D

Re: Car ID (non Model T)

Try posting on the "What is it?" sub-forum on the AACA site - it's for all makes and they're pretty good at ID. You have to register but it's free and you don't have to be a member.

Re: Learning To Drive a Model T

I have no advice to offer other than a quote from my uncle (who grew up in the T era), "Ya gotta be a damn octopus to drive one!" :D

Re: Ben Franklin Bridge to Philly 30s

Whatever it is, there's a 37 Plymouth next to it.

Re: Neat Photo You Might Like

That is a neat photo. I'm not much for sedans but I do like the blind-back slant.

Re: 1931 Model A Ford Mail Truck for sale

Yeah, they're not very practical. Sadly, my advanced age and infirmity means dreaming is all I now can do Model-A-wise. But if I was in the market for one and found say, a 29 Tudor (the highest...

Re: 1931 Model A Ford Mail Truck for sale

If one restores cars for a living, they better make a profit at it. If one is a hobbyist, not so much. I'm the latter and I figure I'm doing well to break even. Any loss is just the cost of the...

Re: Rare model A body styles......

Probably the rarest of all, at least for US production - the 1931 Travelers Wagon, a Model A RV. Less than a dozen made - a few replicas but no known original survivors. It was an offshoot of the...

Re: 1930 Sport Coupe Landau Irons

^THIS!^ At least half the pix I see on the net are upside down and/or backward. The passenger side should look like a letter S and the driver's like a backward S - the fake knob should point to the...

Re: 28 closed cab

...as long as it's a Tudor - Fordor is different. If the visor will work, probably most parts houses have it.

Re: Canadian Model A, Left hand or right hand drive?

Interesting.

Decades ago, we had an ambidextrous 29 frame - dunno if it was Canadian or American. We used it under a LHD 30 coupe back when we didn't know any better - took a little tweaking to...

Re: 28 closed cab

Repro passenger visor is available - dunno if it would fit or could be modified to do so. Or maybe a sheet metal cover for your frame could be fabricated.

Re: New project that should be fun

Interesting - seems redundant on passenger cars (except maybe Station Wagon) as spare is in trunk.

Re: Rear Spare Tire Mount Attachment Direct to Body?

Home Depot (and probably other such) sells sheet rubber in various thicknesses and lengths/widths - not very expensive. It should work for making a gasket.
