I need to get a new set of tires for my 1915 Touring and was thinking about a set of Blockleys. Has anyone had experience with this brand?

This was brought to me today to get running. The ninety year old owner said it was running when he shut it off. He shut it off in 1983. The engine is free but It has three stuck exhaust valves. I am soaking the valves and tops of pistons with KROIL. I will also try some 50/50 acetone and Automatic trans oil. I saw an old post by RV Anderson saying...

Wow! June 7th & 8th is just around the corner.

There's less than 2 weeks left before the deadline to get signed up. Without question, the best antique car...

Do new Hartford 30x3-1/2 metal-stem inner tubes from Coker need bridge washers and nuts? Or can they be used like rubber stem tubes?

The old hardware has different threads and does not not fit the new tube stems.

It looks like the new tubes have the stems vulcanized, so is there a need for the bridge washers and nuts?

Hello. I kindly ask for your opinion what might be wrong and how you found a solution for that.
Please notice that I use metric measurements (Millimeters, km/h, °C) and no imperial measurements, because I am from Europe.

I own a 1916 Touring, almost original (radiator, engine, no water-pump, ...).

What I permanently have is troubles with...

I’m going to try a chapter thread this year. We need to remember this is a club site and chapter activities are important. By sharing what we do maybe other chapters can get some fresh ideas.

So, we meet the first Thursday of the month. Since it was January 2nd it was lightly attended. We had 18 people where we usually have in the 25-30 range....
