Dan that is what I remember. We bought our first Model A in the summer of '71, and Rick's was a pretty popular place for parts right or wrong.

I bought a set of headlamp sockets like Purdy did and the goofy things are still going strong! They weren't as bad as the ones you get today.

I don't think I would use the water outlet, just to beefy looking, but the steering sector looks very nice compared to original USA Ford.

Pluck
Is the sector LHD or RHD, as Argentina was RHD during the Model A era.

Model A's don't leak oil they just mark their territory.

Was a reproduction chrome shift lever reproduced years ago? Was it a good one or an Argentinan poor quality? I just wondered as new ones are made today and my brand new one in a Snyder rebuilt top is terrible shifting into second gear. Transmission is rebuilt and was fine before I changed tops.

I didn't have the chromed shift lever , but if you need a model A transmission top shift assembly rebuilt , send it to Berts in Denver . I had to feel for the gears in my double A , Berts rebuilt it and it shifted good as new !!!
