Re: fuel tank capacity
I have mentioned this before. I once saw a Model A that had burned up because of a leaking fuel gauge window and an ignition switch that sparked. The gas station where it was parked at the time burned up too. This was a time, back in the 1960's, when there were still wooden gas stations. This was in a rural part of California.
In the 1980's I had a Model A with a plastic window in the gas gauge. It was formed so that there was a magnifying feature that made the gas level easier to read. This was when ethanol was starting to be added to gasoline. The ethanol dissolved the nice plastic window.
