Is there anyone still making floorboards for 38 Fords?

I need them too. If you make them I’d be interested in buying a pair

Mine too!

Thanks. Great suggestion (why didn’t I think of that?). I busted it out and was able to pry the sealant out of the groove.

No, the glass is all broken anyways

I’ve removed the nine screws but now I’ve discovered that the glass has been set with some sort of sealant instead of glass setting tape. Is there any hope for getting the two halves apart?

Can anyone recommend a plater that can do a good job on a 38 windshield? Thanks!

Just curious. Why would you not use Grain-it?

I had that problem on my 38 too. I called them and they recommended sanding off some of the surface roughness on the ring. Worked like a charm.

With my Vintage Precision puller I had to clean up some of the rough spots on the hub casting in order to get it to fit. Maybe it’s the same with yours?

We’ll done!!

When I took my car apart 40+ years ago, the fender welt was attached with spiral shank nails. I remember wondering how they drove the nails through the metal

How did the attempt at fixing the fender go?

Looks great! How did you reattach the legs?

Beautiful car!
