Re: Hagerty insurance ?
Nothing unusual here. I’m sure others were named in the suit that you haven’t mentioned. Typical lawsuit, name anyone and everyone attached, they’re just figuring out who is going to pay. Hagerty was...

Re: Mode A Piston expander/ knurling tool to Buy
Don’t use these tools, it’s simply a bandaid tool. Like saw dust in the rear end.

Re: '29 CC PU assembly confusion
I don’t see how you are wrong. There are two holes on each side in the cabs for the A and AA frame as you stated earlier. The A frame only has holes for the outside holes.

Re: commercial color list for 1929
Here's a picture from a year or two ago, but the last time it was in the sun. It's more complete now, but buried in the garage. The splash apron is black to give you contrast to the blue.

Re: Patching Inner Tubes
Tubes are so cheap, I'd rather have the peace of mind with a new tube. Especially on a motorcycle!

Re: Wisdom of Stopping Engine by Choking It Out
Lots of armchair opinions within, and yet these cars have managed to survive 90 years with all sorts of abuse and neglect.
Choking the engine to kill it will do absolutely no harm to the engine,...

Re: Radiator.... Mac's What say you?
You get what you pay for. Your time is worth something too, so R&Ring various radiators for trial isn’t worth my time or money. Buy a quality radiator and be done with it. Time is money.
