Looking for Cabover interior kit? Is anyone making these?

The best way is to cut "O" ring groves in the case. Problem solved forever! Unfortunately, you will have to remove and disassemble the Transmission. Best of luck!

1932 to 1938 big truck 12' flatbed. The frame width is 37 1/2". The metal deck came from Maricopa AZ and is rust free. I purchased new sides and rear "Ford script" rear pieces and new rub strips from Northern Classic Trucks. The wood is Red Oak and is clear, I bought from Ohio saw mill and the...

If your trying to fix the power windows, try looking at "Nu-Relics". They list 33 Ford. They build the regulators with motor that fit and work properly

Cool truck, and welcome to the "Barn" I have a 1936 open cab firetruck with original tires and brakes. The brakes work well. Also wanted to mention, I have an all original flatbed deck and stake sides for the early 1 1/2 ton trucks. In case you may know somebody that might want to do a points...

I welcomed home a new member of the family. 1942 Cabover Firetruck, was advertised in last month's V8 Times. Was transported from Louisville Kentucky to my home in Washington. It will fit in nicely with my other Cabovers. 1947 rollback, 1942 fuel tanker, 1938 Marmon Harrington tow truck and 1940...

Todd was owner of "Northern Classic Trucks". He made top quality sheet metal panels for Ford trucks and Cabovers. He also reproduced Ford script flatbed decks and stake sides.

WOW! A great project from a craftsman. Thanks so much for sharing the story and all of the photos. I wonder about a woody cabover???

My truck, along with Butch Kent and Merle Prusia's trucks did not have any firewall insulation. This is why you do not need a heater in a Cabover...lol

Todd, thanks for the time and energy and money you put into making parts for us. Keep us up on progress.

Buying another one...Found this in Kentucky, purchase in progress. This will be number 5 of my Cabovers. Nice original, starts runs, drives. What can I say it is a disease.

Re: Carb repair since Charlie’s shop closed Another source for Holley 94 rebuild is Ken O'connor in Winnipeg Canada. Only works on the 94's, dose multiple carb set ups also. His quality is top notch.

Great that you found the problem. I straighten the fuel pump stand by putting in a press. I put small thin washers under the flange and press down till tight. this will put a slight negative curve on the flange. I then heat the area with a commercial heat gun and let cool. You could use a small...

I heard about the Pertronix systems many years ago. I have an old skid steer with a Renault 4 cylinder. The price of points cap and rotor was crazy. So I looked into the Pertronix and they actually had listed my distributor for the Renault 4 cylinder. I think it was comparable in price to the...

Todd here is what is left of a 1938-40 grill center. And I had only one of the 1941 center stainless bar's. If these will work for you. Send me your address and I will ship to you so you can make these parts. Pictured is a good original so you can see the detail at the bottom.
