Hello Hatman53 again, I found these Videos showing some ( but not all ) Installation of Floor Pans , but I think they glossed over the Rocker problem. Here they are - Youtube , 1939 Ford Junkyard Hot Rod Revival - Ep. 4 , 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 , 20 , 21 , 22 , and 23 . You need to be pitient ...

Hello, I apologize for the fact that I cannot help you as I have never owned a 1939 Convertible , but , coincidently I am looking to buy one. When I see the prices of restored ones , I believe I will be in the same ballpark as you are - So here is what I will ask you , have you found any...

Looking for a good 1954 Mercury Convertible. Would like an older restoration or an un-restored example.

Thanks Kevin , I surely will find out real soon. My new ' Fingers ' should be here today or tomorrow. I have always tried to use original parts whenever possible, so I made a decision not to get replacement housings which I admit would have been chrome plated. If I need to take a few...

Thanks Bill , That's the info I needed ! Will do immediately. Love my Car.

Thanks again for your help ; I ordered P/N 30970 but have not received them as yet. Perhaps I will have to get back to you when I receive them. I have not attempted to remove the old ones as yet, I have the entire units in ' Kroil Oil ' to loosen the crud in the units. I guess I don't really...

Hello again John and Bill, You guys are correct , I needed #30970 , and somehow I got a smooth set. I have alleady called Brattons and ordered #30970. Many thanks

Dear Model A Guys, Before I end up destroying my original Female Dovetail Door Latches in order to replace the 'Sliders' , I thought it wise to ask those who have already restored one of their own. It appears to be a difficult , but not impossible endeavor to me.
