Re: Bert’s Model A Center. The Place to “GO”.

Anytime I'm in Denver, I try to drop by. If you get a chance GO! You won't regret it. If you can't go, order parts from Steve anyway!

Re: Generator cut out

You can call the folks @ Fun Projects and they can give you an estimated delivery date. They told me 3 weeks so I put in my order and it was just short of 3 weeks when I got it.

Re: Model A Brake Lights

I've ordered these to try. They have 6 forward facing leds vs. the 3 in the ones referenced above. Hopefully they will be brighter than the incandescents.

Re: oil pump question

Ditto what Dollar Bill said. Sounds like you already have the "gizmo" installed that keeps the oil pump from dropping. To run the engine you will need to replace it with the retaining plug (see...

Re: Rusty fuel tank.

I'm not as concerned about the large chunks as I am about the residue left by evaporust. Since the baffles prevent rinsing the surfaces directly, does rocking the car with water in the tank do a...
