Just pulled into Puyallap and traffic wasn’t too bad. Got some more rain and my vacuum wiper was able to wipe away every 110 drop. Again that is...
Made it to Portland to my parents house for the night. So far she seems to be getting 16.5+ mpg, not bad going through the mountains. Hit some...
Just pulled into 7 feathers casino for the night. I could have gone further but a friend of mine told me they have security that drives around the...
Right now I am running the stock Zenith carb. I also have a Marvel/Allstate carb that has a slightly bigger throat so that I can cruise at 55-60....
I will take as many as I can, seeing as how I am doing this solo, there may not be as many as I like. It will be great to move back to the PNW as...
Headed to lynden, wa to her new home. Well mine too. So I figure about 200 miles a day ought to do it.
I saw the topic on road trips so thought I would add my own little road trip. Not totally HAMB as my car is mostly stock, but when I put the big...
You can reach around the fender and into the little open space and install the drain lines. The fenders do t have to come off. Just visualize in...
For your cowl drains, I just went down to the hardware store and got the supplies to run PVC hoses out and down the fenders to dump right onto the...
Going on a 800+ mile road trip next week. Driving my Model A up to lynden, wa to her new home. If there is interest I will start a thread about...
Crazy Steve, you can actually buy alcohol on Sunday now there:D. So maybe you can dance to now. Mike

^^^Great looking 57!
That is one great looking Orange Creamcicle!
Thank you for the help. I am using NiCopp lines but maybe it is offshore crap-not sure. I used a small tubing cutter but that is going bye bye in...
Salflats, I am using it from a roll so I straighten it out as best I can. Maybe I am not getting it straight enough, so that is probably another...
Thank you 28 that is good set of instructions. And thanks to everyone for giving me advice. It is such a good feeling to see her starting to come...
Maybe that is what I am doing wrong, not getting it 100% flat before and after the flaring. The brakes hold pressure enough to get her on and off...
I like it. Love the colors and the shavings. Mike
King-Yes it does the double flare Saltflats-Yep I will have to cut it and start all over:mad::(. As far as I can tell, the tool is working...
Hi All, OK, so I used a LISLE brake flaring tool to make the flares for my brake lines. However, several joints seem to leak a bit from around...
Your interior is better than mine was. Mike
Here is my 2 cents worth-and I have not watched the video. I have a mostly stock Model A sedan and I have driven up and down the cost and to Reno...
Using old tech is great and most of the time a better go to than new tech. But...that means the old tech has to be working first:D. That looks...
If you want to test oil flow, mark and then pull the distributor (if you have not done so already) and spin the oil pump with a drill. that will...
I FINALLY got the engine and tranny in!!!!!!!took us four hours and a lot of new vocabulary words. mike
I assume that you know that the oil bath air cleaner is not the correct one for a 57. But if it fits and works go for it. As for the rocker bolts...
