Welcome! I'm also from PA but from down near Philadelphia. I love your neck of the woods, a beautiful part of PA. I'm looking forward to seeing some pics of your '31 coupe.

Welcome to CHR Woodburner. I recently posted how to post pictures in a "simplified" way on a thread called "Why can't I post a picture?", maybe you can show us a picture of your coupe. I grew up in Montgomery County west of Phila. and once bought a '30 coupe for $15 but my Dad wouldn't let me keep it. I had previously bought a '31 Fordor for $100 and wanted to swap the body of the coupe on the Fordor frame. That was a long time ago! I wanted an A roadster for so long but the prices just kept going up and up so I finally built a Bebops/Brookville '29 replica. Send us some pictures with close up of the linkage on the carbs.
Best Wishes,
