In the mid-sixty to the early seventies the B.F. Meyers & Company made thousands of Meyers Manx but only approximately 850 of the Meyers Tow'd. This Tow'd was the 129th made in January 1968. The fiberglass body has never been painted and has the original Red/Orange gel coat that came from the factory 55 years ago. The fiberglass has never been damaged or repaired.
The Tow'd has a stock 1600 dual port VW air cooled engine with new heads and a doghouse fan shroud for better cooling. It has new brakes, wheel cylinders, front wheel bearings, master cylinder, carburetor, fuel pump, Bosh generator, coil, aluminum fuel tank and seat covers. There is an underbody skid plate to protect the bottom of the Tow'd.
If you have any questions about the vehicle just google Meyers Tow'd on the internet.call/text - Dennis (208) 446-6955

Carburetor adjustments aside engine performance is proportional to air density, which decreases with altitude.
At higher altitudes are you saying that performance will increase because the air is less dense?
Am I correct in saying that if I took a drag race car from Los Angeles to Denver, with absolutely no changes, it would preform better in Denver because the air is less dense? I just need to clarify this in my own "dense" mind. Thanks...

Yep, never a cheap car to turn from static display "Garage Art" into a mobile somewhat reliable weekend cruiser. Then you have to enjoy the lovely smell of leaking gas, oil, and coolant along with the faint aroma of English leather mixed with the intoxicating scintilla of smoking Lucas wiring. "Pip Pip and all that rot" as my Brit friends say.

The photos of the road to the car show are very much reminiscent of the paintings of the French Impressionist style, Monet, Cezanne, Renoir... (If it weren't for the hood or bonnet of the car)

I see this conversation come up often across the internet and enjoy reading them. Most people have no idea that they will recap tires older than 10 years old when they pass inspection.
Ahhhh...Recaps. Does anyone remember Bruce's Tires in San Jose, CA? They are still operating in many Bay Area cities and are popular tire stores. Back in the day (1950's & '60's) they were famous, at least locally, for their [cheap] recapped tires and their drag racing slicks. A lot of us wannabe racers ran slicks on the street, but that's another story. All the serious drag car owners would install nothing else. But I digress...
In high school, about 1960, Bruce's offered their "standard cap" for $3. and the "premium" for $4. Of course, they required a recappable casing in trade, otherwise there was an additional $1. charge. I purchased and drove on Bruce's caps on my cars for over a decade and never I recall a problem or tire failure. As a young married man on a budget, I relied on recaps through a number of relocations from California, to Oregon, then to Washington. Even in later years, my "casual" cars, with the exception of the family hauler, all were shod with caps until they became harder to find. Now, there appears to be a local branch of a national recap/retread company in town offering a good selection of caps for most all later model cars at reasonable prices (all above $4.).
Unless there is information to dissuade me, I think I'll try a set again for the next one of my cars that need "new" tires.

$4k doesn't sound unreasonable until you think about the cost to get this sedan on the road. Once it's running reliably again, do you do the cosmetics or just drive it, or dump in the bucks to make it presentable at some level? I think you'd be underwater just towing it home (and probably in the doghouse once your wife saw it).

California Senate Bill 961 (SB 961) was passed by a 22-13 vote this week requiring that 50 percent of new vehicles manufactured or sold in California must have passive speed limiters installed by 2029. By 2032, that percentage increases to 100 percent.
A passive speed limiter is a system that warns drivers with audible and visual signals when their speed exceeds the posted speed limit by more than 10 miles per hour. SB 961 applies to all trucks, buses and passenger vehicles manufactured or sold in the state. Emergency vehicles are exempt from the passive speed limiter requirement.

Sorry if this has been posted before, but I just ran across it and found the intense labor requirement to manufacture an A was amazing.

ANY deviation from factory stock will affect a change in value in the eyes of the strict enthusiast. That having been said, for practical purpose, non-permanent upgrades for driveability and safety are generally acceptable. I recommend changing only what can be restored to stock and saving all the stock parts. This gives you a wider market when it comes time to sell, and maybe a better price.

WOW...Talk about your niche markets!

The difference is that this car is tastefully done with a period look. Most modified cars are piles of crap.
If this center door T (previously posted for two hours on this forum) is not "Tasteful, with a period look", then some "tastes" need more than a little adjustment.
P.S. There are as many claimed origins of the words "hot rod" as there are hot rods themselves. Check the web and see (and very little agreement).

It's interesting to note that this hot rod post has lasted nearly 48 hours without any negative comments and last fall a claimed $350,000. modified Model T posting was shouted down and deleted within two hours. I'm happy to see that the forum members are more tolerant, liberal and accepting now. This should open the door to highly modified cars on the forum.

With a good detail job (inside, outside, and engine bay), having the convertible top boot, and a good glass or clear vinyl rear window, the seller might get close to his asking price despite the lack of air conditioning and power windows. IMO, as-is around $13 - $14k max.

The Victoria must have been a mid-year introduction as this sales brochure does not show this model. Also, the chrome quarter panel strip leading to the tail lights must have been an option or a later addition as many examples, and the sales literature omits them.

Bottoming Gouge
This gouge is deigned to clean up the bottom of wooden bowls, that hard to reach center where the grain comes together. Sometimes it is referred to as a "dog-leg" or "swan-neck" gouge. These gouges are forged from 5160 spring steel and the large gouge has an overall length of 15"-16". The blades are 1-3/4" - 2” wide and are approximately a #4 - #5 sweep. The small gouge is about 12” long and the blades vary between 1-1/2” to 1-3/4” wide. The sweep is similar to the large gouge. Handles are turned hardwood with a coper ferrule.
The tight sweep gouge is similar in size to the small, but with a much tighter sweep for small bowls and mid sized kuksas.

Here's a 1932 Buick body. The seller says "no rot. good wood".

Not that it helps identify this item or the manufacturer's logo in any way, ...but...that symbol we erroneously are calling a diamond is actually a "rhombus".
...glad to straighten things out for y'all.

The company was based at 5200 North Second Street. Guy C. Wilson was TMTC's president and Theodore C. Brandle was its vice president. Stephen W. Avery was the company's advertising manager.

Ci!! lorse Setis< Nearly one-third of all motor-driven vehicles are used in agriculture. Extensive plans are being made throughout the country to keep highways clear of snow and ice this winter. Motor vehicles have done more for the development of good roads than all other agencies combined in the history of traffic on highways. Profits from hauling are measured by economy of operation—first cost and last cost. You will haul with a Traffic Truck if you are deter-mined to make a new profit out of your hauling, just as thousands have already done with Traffics. The Traffic saves hundreds of dollars in first cost,hundreds of dollars in maintenance cost, and cuts in half the cost of hauling with teams. It hauls a 4,000-lb. load 14 miles in one hour for 30c worth of gasoline. The Traffic Truck has never carried a war price. Our present low price is hundreds of dollars under that of any other truck i-
