Re: Value of an Un-Restored Model A Engine
If the engine is running so you can hear it or you know the history of the car or person that it came from, I'd say the running engine is worth (to me) $500. My friend lost his wife recently, his...

Re: brass Ford script plate ID
Notice the "made in USA" uses two different size stamps AND the "S" is printed upside-down. Not at all Ford quality! LRF

Re: Tail light Wiring
Find the engine number and look for the stamped date that is on the left side of the fire wall under the hood. I think it's stamped on the upper part of the two piece fire wall. LRF

Re: Tail light Wiring
Can you tell us the year of this "A"? The oil dip stick suggests an earlier '28? Maybe you have that rare E-28 switch, I don't know, I own '30s. LRF

Re: Distributor Locking Screw, HELP!
And don't over tighten the screw that pushes against the distributor, it can crack the base of the distributor, the jam-nut will hold the screw in place. LRF

Re: Prices going through the roof?
Let's see; an interior is $5000, a paint job is $5000, an engine is $5000. So a $20,000 Model A is $5000 for the completed body, fenders, etc. Suddenly, it's seems that that $20000 is a deal! IMO. LRF
