Hi Jerry,

Welcome to the group! Couple of things that may help you along here:
1) post where you are from-this way someone may be able to help if needed
2) never throw anything away-parts are meant to be rebuilt
3) join a local club for mutual knowledge
4) make her safe to drive and then drive the wheels off her

Mike

Hello Jerry, welcome to the forum and watch out for one member, he's full of BS and knows nothing about Model As. That member is not me, I know everything there is about Model As and I never BS, I'm very serious about everything. I'm not going to mention any names, it's against Forum Rules but he owns a 31 Model A. Enjoy the Forum and your Henry!!!! I sell Grit Newspapers in my spare time.

Great choice as the fordor is one of the most roomy and comfortable of the As. I know as I have a 30 fordor and a 30 town sedan. Enjoy and ask allthe questions you like. Lots of knowledge here and on www.Ahooga.com

Hello Jerry,
I suggest you add your location to your profile. There may be some of us close enough to help, but we won't know unless we know where you are.

Welcome! Looks like a 29 Town Sedan? I love those, a great tour car. Hope you have located a local club to join. If not visit www.mafca.com or www.marc.com and search for chapers in your area. This will give you people in your area that will know where to get things done and offer suggestions and assistance. A great hobby you are getting into. Hope to see you on the Model A highway soon.
