Haven't posted for several months. My brother-in-law passed recently, and he left a 1929 Durant. My sister will need to sell it. Any suggestions, such as a site for that kind of car? Thanks in...

Green Tudor

Was in Savannah for St. Patrick's Day festivities. I met a green Tudor heading toward downtown on Abercorn St. that was all trimmed out in decorations. Wonder if it was a Barner driving it. I saw it...

GPS coordinates

Just been looking at the no-ethanol list of stations. Each station shows GPS co-ordinates. Can someone tell me how to enter them on a Garmin 255W navigator please.

Re: Model A Making My Garage Smells Like Gas

I agree with Mike. If there was no smell in the old single car garage, and now there is with no modifications on the "A", I would suspect the Honda. Put it outside for a couple of days and see if the...

Re: Charging problem

Well, DUH, found the problem. The front terminal of the cut-out was not connected to the generator case. Replaced the screw that had apparently fallen out, and everything is fine again. As usual,...

Charging problem

On 9/3 I posted a charging problem on my '29 Tudor, and it was suggested by 2-3 people to polarize the generator. We have tried this and still no charge. The battery is good and takes a charge as it...

Do you polarize the generator with the engine running or off?

Re: Towing Question

I've heard of cars jumping in gear while being towed. Don't know if it's true, or just talk. If it's true, that couldn't be a good situation at 70 MPH.

Re: Marvel Mystery Oil

Very interesting replies! It appears to me that most people have the opinion that MMM doesn't hurt anything, so why not use it. Everything I have read indicates that it is a solvent, not a lubricant....

Re: ticked off brake drum turning

Allen, Find a shop that has an Ammco lathe with a 11/16" arbor. They should be able to resurface your drums with no problem. Send me a private message, and I'll help you find someone in your area.
