Looks like I'm going to have to replace my windshield frame in my 35 pickup. Had it chromed plated, but it's rusting from the inside out. Wondering if Drake is the only supplier? and if the product is good. I noticed that it's out of stock right now. Any help or point in the right direction...

I'm still looking for the back seat for a 35 fordor slant back Or any thing close to it?? Thanks Dave

Hay Ed Like I said Go thru the rims you have run the best ones. Use the next best for spares. I Think Hershey will have plenty to pick from, but You'll need a way to spin them. You don't want to buy more junk. By the way how's the carb doing? did you get another? Happy motoring!!! Dave

My car is the slant back no outside trunk access . the rear backrest needs to pivet at the wheel well and has a catch at the top to lock it in the upright position. If this is close to what you have I'm interested. I did price out the springs thru Sniders, very expensive !! If you...

Looking for any thing to do with the rear seat like Plywood, springs, hardware, Even if you have a patern of the wood, pictures of the parts. I'm real lost on this area.. Thanks Dave:confused:

Picked up a 40-41 complete motor. Dirty on the out side, water pumps frozen, All ports taped and sealed, was in storage for some time. I figured I'll have to rebuild so started removing parts. After the heads were removed the cylinders look good, crank turned no problem. Pistons and valves have...

Hello I have a 35 slantback 4 door and need the frame and springs to the back seat. Not sure of the ones you have for sale. I see the two springs in one pic. and a wood frame in another. My car will need to hinge the backrest on the wheel wells to access the trunk. Let me know, Thanks...
