  1. Chrysler and GM. One has one end of the spoke welded. The other has neither end welded. I forget which is which.But then they could be an oddball make, many share the same wheel
  2. The model A wheels are 28-29 with the smaller hub opening and the rolled rim edge. They must be measured wrong. All Ford wire wheels have the spokes welded on both ends. If there are ferrules on any of the ends they are other
  3. wasn't there a davis car in the early post war era? Looked like a tennis shoe.
  4. Water pump is for an 8ba flathead ford. Car not truck 49-53
  5. I never knew it but Sagefinds is right, there is no cut out on the big truck fender but I guewss you could cut it to use it on a pickup

  8. This was supposed to be in the General section. I don't know how it got here, sorry.
  9. Model As originally came with a cast iron separator in the fuel line on the firewall. Many people replace them with a glass bowl filter. When I bought my 31 pickup I was having trouble occasionally. When I come to a stop it would stall out and wouldn't restart. Check all the usual stuff no dice. After letting it sit it would start but I was afraid to take it out. Near home I stalled and couldn't get it started.I was about to call for a tow when I tried draining said separator. Voila it started. Apparently it gets filled with water and when you come to a quick stop a squirt of water goes into the carb making all kinds of problems. The reason I'm telling you this is that ship that hit the bridge in Baltimore. They said it stopped running from tainted fuel and the filters were clogged. Sounds like the separator problem in the Model A
  10. I was a veteran of the Ford/Chevy wars. I never thought I'd see the day
