    Engine Machine Shops Rejections

    Best venue to sell a restored 1940 Ford Convertible?

    Very limited experience here, but of the few sales I've been close enough to know about, I'd agree with your first instinct... bring a trailer has worked for us. 'Course, I'm close to Pomona, and I've had amazing success at selling really nice cars at the Father's Day Roadster Show. I'm amazed...

    Ring and Pinion

    As Deuce Lover posted... This is exactly what I put in my 34... Pinion ground by a crankshaft grinder, to 33-34 specs, spacer added, driveshaft shortened. Luckily, my crankshaft guy was also a flathead guy, he knew what to do, and he took a 33-34 pinion, and measured it to determine the finished...

    1947 coupe upgrade to airplane shocks?

    I suspect not all 47's are the same. There were numerous running changes during the 46-48 period. Well documented in old V8 Times (and probably other places). On my 47, the rear shock mounts were factory installed, both upper and lower. So, in my case, it was only a matter of acquiring 47 shocks...
