Re: 3 bolt to 2 bolt distributor adapter

I'm confused. The OP stated he is looking for a crab dist for his 59A engine. The 59A engine has a crab dist standard unless somebody installed an early 3 bolt front cover.

Re: Vintage Ford V8 Signs

Here are a couple pictures of 2 Ford signs I owned in the 1990"s. Wish I still had them but at the time a profit was more in need. Poor photo quality due to taking a picture of a picture.

Re: 36 Tudor wiper question

That type of arm with the screw usually has a small serrated plate underneath that tightens up on the serrated shaft when the screw is tightened. Probably needs some penetrating fluid shot up inside.
