Does anyone know of any websites that offer specs that include like fuel, oil, antifreeze capacties. Or does someone have a book that they could scan a page on some info. Thanks a lot. btw its a 1950, if that helps.

You could try the above link. They have a forum discussion you could ask there.


Sorry, I sold my A and the manual went with it :( I used the money for a down payment on my Banshee :)

If you get sick of the points system on your A, you should upgrade to the http://www.geneseeproducts.com/ electronic ignition kit. It replaces the points under the rotor. You keep your original distributor.
I also replaced the 6 volt battery with a 12 volt. When you do that you have to "tighten" up the regulator so it will output enough voltage to charge the 12 volt battery. It worked much better and started much easier than the old 6 volt system. If you don't want to switch to 12 volt, I think they have a 6 volt electronic system available. The only reason I went to 12 volt is because it was extremely hard to start with 6 volt when it was 20 below zero and I needed to plow the driveway.

I put one of the electronics kits in our 'Vette too, but it did not work as well, so I had to take it back out. The tractor one worked excellent though.
