I have used Kwik Poly on some wood on a 16 Elgin that was dry rotted to about powder and felt like balsa wood. Kwik Poly made it hard as a rock, the stuff saturated right in the the wood and hardened to give the wood good usable strength. I didn't even have to remove the body panels just the upholstery.

Buy a cheap set of wrenches you can always use large wrenches on an old car. Harbor Freight has them for $45 that includes a 2 inch http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=925 I bought a set many years ago and I have never been man enough to break one.

I have had much better luck with Carlisles.

Thanks. I disconnected the line at the carb and put a rubber hose on it into a can. Hopefully by tomorrow (drip, drip)it will have drained the gas out so I can clean the tank screen. I am pretty sure this is what it is be cause a while ago it leaned out at about a 1/4 tank then was fine when I fill it up. and now it leaned at 1/2 tank.

Thanks I'm new to Model As so I havea lot to learn. The car had set for 7 years before I got it, so I would guess your right.

I drove my 28 Model A to work this morning and on the High way it started leaning out and back firing. It was cold so I just pulled the choke a little and made it to town no problems. At lunch it ran fine till I was on a road with a 2 mile stretch of 45 mph It leaned down a basically ran out of gas. I coasted in a parking lot and after it sat it started right up. I drove to my first stop without any more problems. Right before I got to my second stop it leaned out again and a coasted in the parking lot. After shopping it started right up and I drove to the highway and it ran out of gas again. I let it sit, it started up and but I only made it ½ mile and it sputtered again. First I check gas ½ tank. Then I pulled to plug out of the bottom of the carb and gas just dribbled out. So I pulled the line for the carb and gas just dribbled out. I removed the gas cap to check for a plugged vent, no differences. I removed the glass sediment bowl and gas just dribbled out. I put it back together and drove it home letting it set, driving about a ½ mile costing to a stop ,starting it up and driving and other ½ mile all the way home. Before I tear in to the gas tank I wanted to know what kind of a flow rate should be flowing at the sediment bowl. Should it have a good flow or just a trickle. If it should be just a trickle I need to look elsewhere for my problem. Thanks

The new rule for headlights in the 2009 Judges Guideline Book.
Jay Wolf replied to Shop Rat's topic in AACA - Class Judging
I know I ordered a new 1979 Mustang and no option of halogen headlights. I bought a new 1982 Escort wagon and it had halogen headlights that burned out in 2 months and Wagner replaced them free of charge after I complained. -
What state are you in? There may be easier and cheaper way.

I agree with between Bryson City and Cherokee North Carolina just outside of Bryson City. I rode the train, I think I have some pictures somewhere. There was even a wrecked train from the fugitive movie.

Each state is going to be different. If your in Indiana I can help.

Buy (or check out the library) Ray Millers book Henry's lady or Jim Schild's book Original Ford Model A. Both have a lot of AR pictures.

I our area dirty crushed stone just means the stone is not washed after crushing so it contains stone dust, when used with a good base it will pack down like concrete, without any dust problem. It will work well for a parking area as long as the base is good do not put it over a soft area as it will disappear. We do not have crushed gavel in our area, only crushed stone, gavel is sorted and sold in the size it is mined.
