[Terry, NJ]

I own 3 mod. A s, all 1930s, 2 coupes and a Town sedan. They were bought for various prices, generally reflective of their condition and my acquired knowledge. The Town Sedan was junk, I should have left it there. It wasn't all bad, It was an almost complete car that I dragged home after paying $1500 in 2010, it's just, ...well...You know! Too friggin much work! I won't bore you with details of the two coupes, It suffices to say I've I've replaced almost everything behind the engine, I just got done with the rear end in one. The Other I replaced everything behind the radiator. All three cars got new steering boxes (A truly Fun job!) Two of the cars got new engines. All of the cars have mod. B carbs with bored out manifolds. all have either H.C. or ground down heads. Two of them have lightened flywheels. The rear I just rebuilt, has a 3.54 rear ratio. Do they fly? No, but they can do a true 60MPH. When I was flying, a friend used to say about underpowered airplanes (Taylor Cubs, Bathtub Aroncas, etc) "that they have enough power to get you in to trouble, but not enough to get you out!" Most of them were in the 40 - 60 HP range too. With today's traffic and our penchant for moralistically stating that those who can't keep up with 70-80 MPH traffic that we should be banned from the roads as though it was someone's job to do that! I just want to keep up.
