Extra easy on a Model A, so long as you don't mind drinking fuel, or the car runs on beer.

SeaSlugs · 08-12-2016, 12:58 AM

I dunno some of the "wine" my coworkers make would run an engine...

it doesn't actually SAY your supposed to put beer/booze in it but its name is merely auto beer bar lol.

,,,,,,,on Sundays,,,,after church, of course,,,,,,

You can still get these installed over at Irish motors LLC, right down the road...
Conveniently located at the corner of Wet Bar and Ben Fight'n Streets.

Remember...We "are" Irish Motors...where we fight for you...or... we'll fight you...we really don't care which.
Open every day except Sunday...of course.

The cartoon looks like there are two beer barrels tucked back into the firewall. I'm guessing it was a long wheel base car with the engine in front of those!

"Just laugh at those dusty roads..." Too great.

Mitch//pa · 08-12-2016, 09:42 AM

This took its place

Tom Wesenberg · 08-12-2016, 12:41 PM

Check out the door with it's built in barf bag for those who drink too much.

Probably needed a 2 barrel carburetor as well.......

Bruce Lancaster · 08-12-2016, 01:51 PM

No need to buy the kit...I just drilled a hole in my dash and stuck in a faucet ($4) from Home depot. Filled up the reservoir there with beer and it works GREAT.
But now, a technical problem! My A won't start!!

Start a new thread Bruce asking why your A wont start. Then sit back with your frosty beer in hand and watch the condenser carburetor vacuum leak suggestions come rolling in!

We had a liquor store here in Fredrick with a drive up bar at a liquor store. Pull up, get a mixed drink and drive off

mshmodela · 08-12-2016, 07:37 PM

Given that all Model A's made in the US were made under the 18th Amendment, you have to wonder how many were used and or modified to carry hinder booze?

dansluck · 08-18-2016, 12:09 PM

It could be used to get the alcohol out of the fuel

Great Idea!!

Time to put this accessory back in the market.

Chuck Sea/Tac · 08-18-2016, 02:15 PM

Back in the sixties, the bishops son(my age) cleaned out the windshield cleaner resovior and put the discharge line in the cab.this was a Volkswagen . Filled it with vodka. As far as I know, he never got caught.

CarlG · 08-18-2016, 02:37 PM

Since the windshield washer was powered by air from the spare tire, he may have been caught if his dad had had a flat tire and the spare was flat too.

Bob-A · 08-18-2016, 05:53 PM

My dad use to hang out with boot-legger buddies back in the late 30's.
Their "tanker" was a '37 V-12 Lincoln Zephyer. I think he said the hauling capacity was 25 gallons of grade-A North Carolina white lighting.
