"Thank you Pat and Lynn at Headquarters and the entire Judging Administration team for the quick turnaround in posting results from our National Meets. What took days or weeks in the past now is done at lightning speed." This is a quote from a great friend when describing just what dedicated employees, volunteers, and Regions/Chapters do for the greatest historical automotive club...The AACA. Thank you to all... Peter J.

A failure to proceed or what I did this Easter weekend
Peter J.Heizmann replied to nickelroadster's topic in Technical
nickelroadster... Might be worth your while to check your AACA Library & Research Center. We retain a huge amount of original shop manuals, tech data, and so on. Cannot guarantee any successes however highly recommend you check it out with Chris Ritter critter@aacalibrary.org or 717-534-2082. Also try a research request form. In the gold header bar click on Resources then AACA Library for self explanatory procedures. Out of curiosity I just checked the On-Line Catalogue on the Library web site. Typed in Keyword "Oldsmobile 1915" in "subject". Listed are "Collection of Oldsmobile Clippings and Photos", various sizes. Who knows what might be there? Regards, Peter J. -

Electroplating eastwood kit, anyone use one?
Peter J.Heizmann replied to a topic in General Discussion
Plymouthy, Do you have any info on the original question: Eastwood's plating system? -
Hugh32, In the header bar at the top click on "Search". Keyword "Canada". This topic was discussed many times over the years. You will find some good dialogue and tips. Keep going back through pages. I checked out page 2 then 3 and Canada importing comes up quite often as you go back in time. (Unfortunately Importing from Europe threads show up too however topics on "Canada" are easily seen.) Regards, Peter J. Heizmann

Trailer Questions Answered here.
Peter J.Heizmann replied to H&Htrailerguy's topic in Garages, Trailers, and Towing
Hi, Bill. The recommended tonque weight is 10-13% on the hitch. I bought a "Sherline Products Tongue Scale" ($110 range). My TR-6 & Southwestern 16' trailer have a GVW of 5240#. Have a tool box in the trailer's nose. NOTE: I also had my luggage and AACA Literature boxes in the bed of the truck before leaving for a National Meet (The items in the tow vehicle come into play big time if you want assurance the whole rig is set up correctly.) --Moved car onto trailer. Weighed the tongue and it came out to 855#. Moved the car back at intervals until the tonque weight registered at 550#. Marked off the location of the car and installed wheel chocks for the front wheels. Now every time I load the car I know it is the correct tonque weight. --Tonque Scales are a must for people who tow an assortment of vehicles as naturally the tonque weight varies with vehicle weights. Regards, Peter J. -
Marlin65...Welcome to the AACA Forum. Have you clicked on the <span style="color: #CC0000">75th Anniversary link </span>on the Home Page AACA National Events (right column) for the latest information?

Hi, Judy. Works fine and great job as usual. Agree with Bill Stoneberg that to have a link to switch to another year would be helpful but not earth-shattering. Regards, Peter.

Hello, Neil...Welcome to the AACA Forum. I took a look through the 2008 Awards listing and there is a 1912 Reo owned at the time by one John Manifor who won a 1st Junior in 1965. The meet is listed as South Gate however the state is not noted. There are South Gates in MD, IN, GA, and, CA. Hopefully, someone who recalls this meet will chime in soon. Regards, Peter J.
