Okay, everyone's been bugging me for years to change my screen name, since no one knew who the hell inkorekt was when I went to shows. Looks like...
As part of a deal for helping a friend build a car, I got a nice Walker radiator for a 30-31 Model A. I'm building a '28 roadster, which...
Despite not having any windows or heat in my car, the first three hours into my trip to the Pileup hadn't been too bad. Hell, I had even managed...

My friend bought a chopped aluminum radiator for his '31 A coupe from Speedway and it looks waaaay too short to me. We channeled the car 4" and...

It was unseasonably warm today, so I took the sedan out for a quick spin. I ended up down some back roads, and figured I'd post the results just...
I'm helping a friend rebuild a '31 Model A coupe that has been butchered up rather bad, so I need to undo the damage before I put a new frame...

I have a title for my '27T, and the engine number has 8 digits then a space and 2 more digits. The way the title is layed out, I think the last...
