Hi folks, Converting my '38 to open drive as going the 5-speed route. Just pulled my torque-tube forward expecting to find a coupler to split it from the pinion, but have found this... ...no coupler and a one-piece shaft. I've seen these on Model A's but not V8s before. Anyone else come...

Unboxed the electric wiper kit for my '38 at 3pm, 4 hours later I have twin-speed wipers. What a great set-up. Simplicity itself, and worked perfectly first time. If you're pondering getting a kit from these guys, buy with confidence.

Thanks for all your help, gents.

Guys, The wiring harness on my '38 Deluxe at the bottom of my steering has become frayed and brittle so needs changing. Some years ago I bought a new one for a model A and it was very poor quality. Does anyone make a good quality replacement for a '38 or should I attempt (if possible) to...

Morning guys, quick question. Is it possible to remove the clutch and brake pedal assembly from a '38 with the engine and box in situ? If so, what's the secret? Thanks in advance.

Got one too, Mark. It'll be going on over the winter.

I'm fitting F100 brakes to the front of my '38 and I need a pair of adapters to run the wide 5 wheels. Does anyone have a pair - such as those made by Dick Spadaro - with 5.5" pcd to wide 5 please? Cheers. Darren

Cheers guys. Bringing this back from the archives with a thank you. Had the same issue with a '38 I've just bought and it was the contacts in the switch. Used G.M.'s methods of flatting them with 1000 grit lubed with Plusgas, and all is good.

Wow, just looking at the Vintage Precision site. Any one got any experience of their drums? Soz for the hijack, Mart!

Great thread. Tod; amazing desire and work, sir.

’28 Phaeton body of Australian origin, imported from California (bought from Coop via the HAMB) in 2011 and restored. The body sits on top of a ’31 Model A chassis. The phaeton easily seats five and makes a great family rod. French military flathead V8 with 4” crank, 40,000 miles on military...

Yes, need to remove that.

I agree. Mine was a flatpack and was a nightmare.

Not sure, possibly on the HAMB?

I'm hoping to get some work done on mine this weekend, so I'll try to get some pics, if you like. I could also get some measurements if needed.
