You might want to pull and lube all the brake rods and shafts if it has sat for a long time; those mechanical brakes need all the help and encouragement they can get... btw what year is it?

I knew you'd get that one... :)

Here's the car, sitting out by my '66 Ford, which I haven't touched yet...

The Model A belongs to a customer;  it's been in his family a long time.  He said his mother bought it some time ago.  I think he has just gotten possession of it recently.  It has sat for several years.  Fuel tank was all dirty, no spark, etc.   Took all of about an hour to get running...   If everything were that simple :)

Here's the single tail light on the "A"...    Looks like a good tail light for a bike project.... more on that later....

We run an automotive repair shop, and from time to time, we get some really interesting stuff to work on.  I thought I'd share some of it with you...   See if anyone out there knows what this is....    I'm guessing Troll and 49 are the only ones old enough to remember these....

Hint:  The blue spots on the second one is a "spark"
