  1. Take it to your hardware store or brake shop and match it up.
  2. Keep searching for a "good" machine shop, they are out there.
  3. Is the # on the engine the same as on the title? That is the "VIN"
  4. Call a floor covering shop, they should have an answer.
  5. Model A sedan, Another one, '48 Chevrolet, '57 Ford 2 dr, '66 Mustang coupe, '71 Capri, '72 Capri, 65 Mustang fastback, '65 mustang coupe, '51 Chevy truck, '55 Chevy 2dr hardtop & 2dr, '59 MGA, 57 Chevy 2d, 69 Dodge Super Bee, Dang! this is tiring me out, I'm only up to the mid '70s. I might continue later.
  6. I remember Mr Toads Wild Ride at Disneyland.
  7. I sold a 57 Ford 3 times before it stopped coming back! I also sold and then bought back my Model A Ford 3 years later.
  8. Springs come in all shapes and sizes. Measure the perameters of your tallest one and find another.
  9. Someone should be able to give the spring length and tension or compression rate. You should be able to find something similar. Check https://forums.aaca.org/profile/81337-carbking/ an expert on these forums..
  10. You could get the spring at your hardware store and fabricat the clip from a thin washer I bet.
  11. I have a Model T titled, but the engine was replaced in the far past so the title only matches the license plates. I probably should restamp the engine.
  12. It can work but should be reflected in the selling price. You should see what your state requires and negotiate on that advice.
  13. Note on the ad the logo is also in italics.
  14. That one looks like a '48 cap
  15. Would a sacrificial anode slow this down?
  16. What are the compression readings? Start there.
  17. Inflation #1, Everybody ate Zinc during the pandemic and used up all the reserves #2. I have no other ideas.
  18. One more bit of info., good luck.
  19. Fuel/air mix, compression, and spark at the right time and your car will start and run. Tell us what you have done to get these parameters met. Here is a wiring diagram to start with.
  20. Just for good reference you should verify the direction your distributor turns, and then watch to see which way the lever on the quadrant moves to retard the spark. Now when you want to start your car move the lever in the full retard position.
  21. Can a metal shop fabricate one for you?
