I have researched and there seems many ways to convert. The rest of the car has been converted. what is the most simple way. emphasis on simple. that's how I like things and that's why I like Model A's


thankyou in anticipation. gary
If you read the first post in this thread, he wanted it SIMPLE.
I see simple as just changing ONE part with no other modifications.
No special tools or skills needed.
There are 12 volt gear drive starters available for model A's that just bolt in.
No Bendix springs and screws to break.
Positive timed shift so the gears are in mesh BEFORE the motor starts cranking.
They have enough torque to crank 14 to 1 compression if you are so inclined.
