Re: Canadian Model A Info

Re: Tail light Wiring
I've chatted with the fellows at Strong's Garage here in Alberta. We may be able to do a trade for a later column, they may have a guy looking for an early '28 column.
Thanks for everyone's...

Re: Tail light Wiring
The car is supposed to be a '29 however I do know it was re-pieced back together out of a number of barns and a field in a remote cattle ranch. So I'm guessing it's a combination of a coupe of years....

Re: Generator Wiring
Thanks Marshall. The issue I’m having is I can’t find a pic with the cutout that is on my generator. I have seen plenty with the cylindrical style, but not mine so I’m unsure how to wire this one.
