Re: Which Car-Like Vehicles Can Tow a Model A?
Weird how 'mericans need super heavy trucks to tow a car. We get by with a tandem (or single axle, but i don't like them as much) trailer and a little old hilux.
A decent odyssey should tow one.

Re: brake problem
If you cannot get good replacements any time soon. see if you can get replacement seals.
And if the bleed was not quite at the top, would it be possible to fill the offending air gap with epoxy?
