Default Re: Ideal Street & Touring Speed Equipment Setup

Thanks all for your comments. I did stray from the 1930s with the electric stuff, and I did it because of I am fed-up fixing Model "A" & Model "B" water pumps. As for the 60 plus amps of alternator, I plan to use an electric heater in the car, halogen headlights and a fog light.

Hi Mike,

I have always been a hot rodder at heart. My Coupe was going to be a hot rod, but I lost my license back in the early 1960s, so my parents said the Model A will remain stock or it goes. That event sent me down the road of restoring the Coupe much like Henry built it.

For a while I had speed goodies on my Coupe, and I enjoyed cruising the interstates at 60 mph, but my wife said I drive too fast and she did not feel comfortable cruising out of town in it

2many cars,
I will be at the New England Meet next week. I have been to all of them since 1986.
