Better photos would be a help, may be a 1933 Plymouth.

Back in the old days we'd just post photos.

Just recieved the new Antique Automobile, and flipped throught it and see that I'll have to sit down and read it! Who came up with the LONG OVERDUE feature on the National Awards Winners? I think it is fair to say most members don't know these awards exist, not so anymore. Thanks for a job well done! <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

We've all forgotten SPEED! The Model T brought Racing and HOT RODS to the masses! Catalogs filled with aftermarket speed goodies inspired thousands of racers when the cars were still new, and they continue today.

WOW! Sure would be nice to know that car survived its life in the movies. It's a FIAT GP car from around 1910. This may be the same car, it was in the Waterman collection, then part of the Harrah collection, were it is today is unknown to me. You always have great posts, thank you for another one!

If I can fit the contents of a Ford Flathead transmission in a Priority FLAT RATE Box and ship it to California for $8.10 how does your "Buddy" get off charging $16.99 for a motometer? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Today March 31, 2007 is the 75th Birthday of the 1932 Ford, the showrooms finally had the cars availabel for sale to the public. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

The front fenders look like those on 1910 photos I've seen.

Personally I'd never bid on one without a CLEAR closeup photo, and a discription of the emblem.

JD </div></div> This is why the show is doomed, a restoration takes YEARS to do vs. a modified car restoration/rebuild. If they can't respond to their original post how can you expect them to locate missing parts for the vecicle. I doubt they can find a vehicle let alone a shop willing to do the work and disrupt whatever projects they have that produce a profit. This ranks along side watching paint dry. (These are my opinions, and I'll bet money on them.) <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

#1. Affordable, rugged, and adaptable #2NO!!!!!! Apples and oranges! There is 99 years of changes in the world in general. The T was the only automobile model Ford was marketing at the time, today the list is endless, many produced at a loss. #3. Dependablity #4. The Model T provided mobility to the world, the engines were used to power boats and airplanes as well as the 15 Million cars produced 1908-1927.

Were would one look to find the location of this event? Is the public welcome? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

It not door height that is the question its the inside latch to floor dimention you need to know.

When did England run out of cars in need of restoration? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

This is all BS in my opinion, setting up a rating system for vendors will have little value. If you look at the eBay Feedback system I've found that the bitching and moaning comes from $10.00 item sales, while items selling for hundreds of dollars get a "Thanks item arrived in good condition". There is no sliding scale for the value of an item. Someones Business could be killed over an unfair feedback if it was setup here.

Is there a restoration shop out there that is on a par with Chip Foose (Overhauling TV Show) that could pull off what most people here consider to be a restoration? I just don't see how they could pull this deal off using a true Classic.

Steve, I've got some serious questions about this future program. What do they think a "Classic" is? What do they consider to be a "Restoration", good at 20 feet, 10 feet, AACA National First? Filming a restoration could take YEARS, I can see a good slide show with maybe a Sam Elliot narration, but getting people to watch will be quite an effort.

Thanks Layden! Did the "K" rim interchange with all T wheels or only ones with "K" receptive fellows. That sounds dirty doesn't it? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Layden, how does a "K" rim attach to the T wheel? I can't see the four common lugs most demountable T rims have.
