Exclamation Model A Fellas please read this

Going forward if you see something that is off topic,
DO NOT reply to the post. REPORT IT to Ryan or I.

Don't make a new seperate post complaining about it or attack who ever is posting.

That only causes issues and it won't be allowed anymore for a hand full of guys that try to take control of posts that are causing issues.


Ryan and I are going to start closing accounts of guys who seem to take it upon themselves to complain about how we post about Old Fords vs what we post about Old Fords.

That won't continue. Enough is enough. No more warnings.

You post a complaint of WHAT WE ALLOW AND ON HOW WE POST ABOUT FORDS and stir things up - your account will be closed.

Report the off topic post to Ryan or I and then get back to enjoying Model A's.

Thanks,

Cob

Hey Ryan and Cob,
I'm slow , but finally read your input/caveat! It is a pleasure to know people of character...as you!! Needless to say, NOBODY should be made to feel inferior/not wanted here by anybody...while using YOUR site/resources. Here's celebrating 100% compliance

Wouldn't that loose a lot of historical answers that people have posted about how they do things? You do have the ability to search this info.

Have not been here in a while. I agree with Ryan and Cobs stance. Some people seem to want to lord over others because of their "superior" knowledge or "righteous" attitudes. There are no dumb questions.

Fully agree with this statement.

But will add, that there are alot of just plain everyday guys on here that share their knowledge in a gentleman type manner for alot of guys like me and others to learn from.

I am an absolute newby to the site but a kind of a grammarian.

"REPORT IT to Ryan or I." Should to be: "REPORT IT to Ryan or me."

Sorry, but that is one of my pet peeves.

DT you remind me of my sister-in-law. But there is nothing wrong with good grammar. On my posts along, it will keep you busy correcting them! Welcome to the site.

I made a basically humorous post that was very loosely linked to a Model A item and it was enjoyed by a few other posters but it was closed in about a day. I was not able to read all the replies so I don't know if it "went bad" but the thread is no longer there.
So heads up, these guys are really serious. Both the moderators and the purists. Tread the thread cautiously and keep it Model A restoration oriented.

So many young folks have not had the opportunity to learn the basics of automotive maintenance. They have not been exposed to clutches, carbs, generators, points and electrical systems with no fuses. I am proud of the patience and skill demonstrated in carrying these new Ford fans through their difficulties.

Thanks again.

You see where the problem is?

Your expert told you always oil lug nuts!
Ford in the FORD Econoline Service manual and Owners manual states "Never use oil or grease on studs or nuts." (Wanted to use a Ford reference on the Fordbarn.)

Whose expert is correct? Yours, Ford, both, neither? What makes matters worse is when reading a contradiction to long held beliefs one often thinks the other guy is an ass.

One should keep in mind "There is more than one way to skin a cat."

Just so you don't get upset with me, I found almost as many "lube" as "no lube" on the internet. So I can't say who is right.

Cool Re: Model A Fellas please read this

Gentlemen -

Thanks again for this great venue and all the work it takes to keep it afloat. We, meaning me and a few other folks, "older guys", are not as proficient at this computer stuff - but you keep it real and clear as far as rules and regs. It is also very easy to navigate and learn scores of good information.

If folks have real a complaint lets say of a political nature, then I recommend taking the FORD out to the local coffee shop and discuss the worlds problems then and there. The FORD benefits from the exercise, the neighbors get to see a true piece of American Iron, and you get to catch up with others on a level playing field - thus hearing from all sides (hopefully).

Thanks again and I want to tell you that I truly benefit from your site!

Be well -

I am glad I saw this post ... and understood. I have always been over protective of our great hobby since riding in my dad'd model T at five yrs old (I'm 60 now). I love Fordbarn and appreciate that you keep it at it's best. Thank you.

I was wondering how long this would go on before someone stepped in. Let’s get
back to what we all enjoy, the good old MODEL A FORDS!! We were doing this
when we were Kid’s, now that I am 80 it’s time to grow up.

New member, but not new to the sight. Every since I bought my A, and made it my daily, I have been coming to this sight looking for answers to a few of my problems or concerns, and have found for the most part that everyone is willing to advise or at least point others in the right direction. Putting 150 to 200 miles a week on my car has made this sight invaluable to me.

To start off this is my first post, I'm working on a 1931 Ford Model A Murray body. It was me and my Dads project car, before we really got anywhere with it he passed away. I've been working on it with my spare time (there's not a lot lately) but I called a professional to help out. He found a crack in the block and told me the motor is no good, it was real kick in the teeth. So I'm real motivated to get this project on the road.

I'm looking for an good engine in the Jacksonville FL area Ill drive a ways it I have to. I'll take any advice about the car, there's so much about the car that I never got to learn.

I think some engine cracks can be fixed. So look on this site for some answers-I think there are some posts on this subject.

Also you may want to start your own post one this site about this subject rather than using this area of posting.
