I was doing some casual reading on various late Model A’s and I came across the Bombay Bell. I’m interested in learning more about this. Does anyone have knowledge of this?

You find them on Ebay fairly often, usually between $100-$200.

Some people like them. I find them anoying, but that is just me. I like to hear the engine run smooth and don't want much to distract from that sound. Bells and whistles have their place and you often find them with cars that have every accessory ever made for the A. Too each their own.

I had one on my roadster, and it made for fun in a parade. They are two toned, as the upper and lower bell are different sizes. Bing-Bong.

I dropped one of the Radius ball cap bolts down in the `Bell housing and cant find it with a magnet. Would pulling the starter help locate it? This is an AA bell housing so it is shorter than normal. Please dont tell me I need to pull the engine or rear end. For those that have never been to Korea, kimpchi is fermented cabbage and it is bloody lawful.

by OMIUpon disassembling and bead blasting the bell housing and transmission I found this crack on bell housing. After blasting a lot of dirt, grease and green paint off parts I noticed the witness marks on the inside and outside of the bell housing. Seeing the impressions on both inside and outside of bell housing, I decided this was something that was done in casting and continued to wash with NAPHTHA...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

This is a good book for all you Ford fans if you are looking to pass some winter weather time indoors. Some neat points they make in the book, in relation to Model A Fords, was the story of 'how' the Model A came about (we've all heard it still interesting) but also later Alan Mullaly makes reference to how they pulled Ford out of the brink of disaster after he took over in Sept. 2006, akin to what...

by spencerj13My 1931 flywheel housing was cracked so I welded it. I can not get the flywheel to flywheel housing difference to less than .005. The greatest difference is .016. Do I need to replace the flywheel housing or is this measurement not extremely important? I have already have two shims in the top bolts....

by JKYI recently bought a 1929 blind back Fordor with a Briggs body. Body and wood are in pretty good shape. It has a Model B engine and trans in it. The trans is locked in second gear. It wasn't locked when I bought it. Over the weekend I pulled the tower off. The shifter is sticking going into second and pops out easily, so I'd like to replace the shift rail shaft for second/third and the springs and...
