Re: Fun With Asphaltum Paint!
Don't know how much it counts, Darryl, but I spent the summer of 1964 at 24 mile Chena Hot Springs Road. Homesteaders.

Re: Beautiful brakes
You got my drift, Pete. Sayin' those parts are beautiful, that's all. I have heard every debate there is about mechanical vs hydraulic since I, at age 16, got my 45B in 1959. That was the same time,...

Re: 16 inch wheels
Jordan is right, Slackcat, about those wheels being applied to Model As ever since 1935. My 45B was, and had been for years, wearing them when I acquired it in 1959. And except for some excess air...

Re: 12 Volt Field Coils
Thank you, Mike. I have a notion to go 12 volt soon, and was thinking to rebuild my starter for that and put it to use before the fact. Guess I will use old faithful til then.
