    '37 Ford Coupes are cool:) Now a '37 Roadster THAT is a rare animal, last year Ford offered a Roadster and there weren't many sold. I've only seen them in pictures!

    Tyres!

    Is it just me, or does it seem like Rayon tires we bought in the 70's seemed to last and last and last??:eek::eek: Those ugly Garfield-Bedford-Allstate zig zag tread pattern tires?

    Tyres!

    I agree with Bob. Universals are about the best buy tire for the money. Unless you plan on putting beau coup miles on a set of radials I just don't see how they are actually practical BECAUSE you have to remember that the shelf life of a tire is 7 years tops. After that you should replace them...

    Other Side Of My Drum

    Is it possible to tap that with a wrench and tell by the 'sound'? Steel will make a high pitched ring cast iron will make a lower pitched sound?? Seems like an old time mechanic told me that in the early 70's......

    OHV Deluxe:):) Oh my gosh beautiful car! I absolutely love the three window coupes, '35-' 36's you can't go wrong with them and yes, those early flathead Fords are WAY above and beyond a Model A Ford as far as driving and such,, a lot more road worthy! LOVE your car that is super cool!!

    Wanted a mechanic to work on my 32 Ford V8

    Ahh--- yes Larry would be closer at 158 miles but I don't think he does much with early flatheads....He's pretty much a Model A guy,,, It is harder to find help for flathead Fords....

    Wanted a mechanic to work on my 32 Ford V8

    Also try Gerald and Sons in Nappanee, Indiana. They work solely on Model A Fords but they WILL work on the '32's. No other year early V-8's though. Gerald and Sons are only on FaceBook they discontinued their web site. I am not on FB myself. Look them up on Duck Duck Go at least you can get a...

    Thinking about upgrading from Model A to Early V8

    AzBob... yes hoping for the best for your transition! We have a '30 Roadster and a '36 PU. I like both of them for what they are, and they ARE different beasts, that '36 will get out and scoot! But the Model A is a bit easier to work on and good parts seem to be easier to come by. I have been...
