    My 1935 Convertible Sedan died on the road

    Awhile back I too was tooling down the highway in my 35 coupe when it sputtered and shot craps on the side of the road. Had to summon my trailer and and tow it home. This is what I found to be the problem.

    1935 coupe overflow tank recommendations

    Thanks for everyone's input here, much appreciated. I think my take away will be along the lines of finding a inconspicuous catch can/ overflow tank small enough to fit in front of the radiator and behind the grill connected as described above so it sucks coolant back after cooldown...

    1935 coupe overflow tank recommendations

    The car never had them initially I'm told. I dont drive it in colder weather and as a result it doesn't take long to stabilize at normal operational temperatures. I will be looking into that after I tackle the overflow tank. Today's oils are much better with temperature extremes. Do you guys...

    1935 coupe overflow tank recommendations

    Car runs cool with adequately filled radiator. Pretty stock car, No thermostats installed. Running down the road 40-50mph with 4:11 differential, radiator fills up and blows out overflow tube. Then the syphoning takes over. Will probably have to get a pressure radiator cap as well, not...

    1935 Ford coupe heater

    relics (plural noun) an object surviving from an earlier time, especially one of historical or sentimental interest. Not at all, I have reason to believe I might have been conceived in one just like this one. :D

    1935 Ford coupe heater

    I disassembled it so I could check it all out. It had already had a half *** refurb sometime ago and repainted. They could have done a little better job cleaning and preping before paint. Not sure if they kept the original color or not. The emblem can be easily removed and model plate...

    1935 Ford coupe heater

    Does anyone know the interior color of my 35 ford dash? I received the ebay heater, referenced above, and plan to refurbish it and want to paint the box the same color. Thinking about painting the silver louvers and trim with chrome paint....Just thinking at this point. Bullshark

    1935 Ford coupe heater

    The previous heater had a control cable that went to the dash just left of the glove compartment. Wonder if this one supports that type of control? Didn't see that in the ebay pictures. Might have to jury rig something up?
