Good looking car!

It would be wise to put a spoon full of oil & a bit of penetrating oil in the cylinders now. Time is your friend when it comes to soaking an engine free. Before taking anything apart put it in high gear - (hand brake all the way forward) & rock the car backwards. If the starter is jammed this may free it.

The 25 tudor pass seat is free standing. No rear support on that seat.

Darn it on the seat,I guess people were smaller in 1925.I don't like it with myself (195 lbs)in it much less my 300 lb friend.I am going to built a leg that will swing freely and come down when seat comes down.

Honestly on the engine I am going to pull head and pan to fully evaluate condition even if the starter is locked.I fully intend on putting some miles on this gal when done.

Has any of you ever used a stromberg T replacement brass carbuerator? I have one and since the holley is in pretty bad shape am thinking about doing it up for this car...
