Thank you very much gentlemen. Sorry but I'm under 30 so flatheads, double-clutching, and unsyncronized gears fall into the dark arts and black magic area for me but I'm trying to learn. I have a great respect for history and I'm glad you guys are willing to share your knowledge. I also got a perfect 30-31 A frame and half my roadster body from this guy who sold me the motor. He had a bunch of those trannys I wanted laying around including a Zephyr tranny. I picked up some Deluxe roadster Stanchions from him also but that's about the last vintage A stuff he had. He just sold his whole lot of parts/cars: a bunch of frames, axles, banjo rearends, 4 or 5 model A truck cabs V-8 flatheads, Strombergs, a nearly complete 34 Ford truck, Model A doors, cowls, you get the idea. He let it all go for $1,500. I wanted to cry. He's the second guy I bought parts from that said they had parts for an open driveline conversion. Can someone please explain this to me.
