    1931 Ford Coupe Rear window roll down pictures.

    Don, It has a drain tray. You just can't see it in the picture. You did remind me about adding the drain tube! :rolleyes: What a mess that would have been. My window goes down ~7 inches. (2/3 down) Thanks Don

    Thanks so much Mitch. My window goes up and down smoothly, my T handle doesn't hit the tray, and I will have room between my steering wheel and seat. George. :)

    Wood Windshield Header 1931 Coupe

    How much wood should be showing above the metal windshield header? Maybe it should be flush? I'm trying to determine how much I need to sand off. At the moment the wood is sticking above the metal about two eights of an inch. Any pictures or advice would be helpful. I can't find any...

    1931 Coupe Door Header Bolts

    I am test fitting my wood and metal. There is a carriage bolt round head that seems to be making a gap in the support header plate above the door. I know the gap will be smaller when I nail everything together but the bolt will stop it from being totally flush. The Coupe Book MAFCA says it is...

    1931 Model A Coupe ~ Rubber Material next to interior door latch

    Hello everyone, I am replacing this dried up and probably shrunken rubber material with wood. Does anyone have pictures on how it should match the curve of the door post? Should the rubber mimic the elbow of the door post? It seems too small for the upper elbow of the door post but...

    Dome Light instructions Wood Install

    I am adding the dome light wooden block to a 1931 Coupe. I wondered if anyone had any pictures or instructions. Did you run the wiring to the front or back of the car. A picture of the raw wood on the ceiling would really help. I am also guessing you drill holes in the ceiling wooden ribs...

    Chrome roadster windshield frame

    1931 Coupe Wood Front Header

    Here is a picture of my side top rails with my new rails. They were also just numerous boards with the bolts holding them together. Could have been a shortage of larger solid wood so they used scrap?
