What roadside repairs have you made to keep your A going
In a comment in another thread, it occurred to me that those amongst us who use their As for long distance touring will likely have at some time had to make a makeshift repair just to keep going. What have you done and how successful was it?
I have welded broken wheels - both at the hub and when spokes have pulled off the rim. I've repaired an arcing distributor body, got rid of the shimmy of death by packing the ball on the A frame (under the bell housing) with a piece of denim, I've rewired enough of the car to keep going after a short circuit and countless flats mostly from when we couldn't buy decent tubes - the list goes on. Here's a similar thread already run here: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showt...airs&showall=1 Let's hear your stories.
