Going to blackwall and black rims and can’t recall where to buy those tall stock looking valve stems... any suggestions? Thanks.

If you mean the original nickel-plated valve stems as shown below, you can buy excellent reproductions from A & L Parts Specialties in Canton, CT. or you can buy inner tubes with those stems already installed in the tubes from Coker Tire, Lucas, Universal, etc. You still would need to purchase the bridge washers (the washer with wings), bridge washer retaining nuts, and outer valve stem retainers separately from A & L. (The bridge washers that they offer are for Model A rims and the corners must be trimmed to fit properly in '32-'34 rims. I don't know of anyone offering the correct bridge washers for the '32-'34 rims.)

Perfect, thank you so much.
