Re: Engine Stand
I would get rid of that three wheel engine stand ASAP. It's just a disaster waiting to happen. I just bought a nice four wheel one from Harbor Freight. Works a charm!!

Re: Running Poorly
I vote for a new condenser. I had these same symptoms on my 6cyl F-1 a few years ago. Don't spend your time trying to see how hot the spark is. Bite the bullet! Condenser aren't very expensive!!

Re: Model A Registration Woes
Because Maine is a no-title state I think you should be able to slide through. Just go down to your town hall and file the paperwork. I've done it before with successful outcome. Go to the town hall...

Re: Couldn't Resist It
Well, sometimes it's better than you might expect. I bought a pig in a poke engine last year and just found the main bearings to be 0.003" with shims still in the engine. Whew!!

Re: Where do I store stuff??

Re: Cotter pins
I think that if your car is so perfect that you are worried about the finish of the cotter pins and the shape of their heads you're in pretty good shape!!

Re: Cotter pins
My dad straightened rusty nails and kept old screws - depression mentality. Times have changed. I would not recommend reusing a cotter pin!!
