When I got my Town Sedan, the front hub nuts were finger tight, & guess what?

The rear hub nuts were also finger tight.

Former owner said he had it for 20 years in his large car collection in New York State & only drove the Model A about 200 miles in 20 years in a couple of slow moving parades -- luckily no axle key damage.

Maybe some vintage car collectors can easily get confused with varying auto specifications -- always a good idea to check out everything after a new vintage car purchase.
