Thanks to all of you

Can someone tell me where the 48-14548 battery cable grommet is attached on a 35?

I agree 100% with what Kobe has indicated. I used PPG Concept on both of my restorations and PPG has eliminated the product. I have various quantities of the paint left so I plan on sourcing the correct hardener on Ebay as my local supplier no longer offers any products associated with Concept...

Having an insufficient amount of knowledge about the subject, I don't have any credible comments to make so I'm currently waiting for someone to chime in and offer credible evidence about the pros and cons of going in either direction. I've used both AV gas and ethanol gas in my Model B and 36...

Not to discourage you BUT be aware that there are many shades of black out there. For instance every once in a while when I used to show my 32 5Win someone would ask if my fenders were black or brown. Back before PPG totally eliminated the ability to buy Concept single stage urethane there were...

I'm slowly going through my old 1998 Ford van due to extensive rust problems and have had no luck finding any used exhaust heat shields due to its age. So I guess I'm going to have to custom make some replacements myself. However, more often than not there isn't enough left to a particular...

I've now have my 35 convertible sedan 97% completed but are yet to start her up. I've been periodically turning over the engine as I've slowly completed the restoration. I would really appreciate it if those of you who've been down the road a number of times could give some good, accurate advice...

If memory serves me correctly, in order for the dash lights to come on it's necessary to either put the parking lights or headlights on by manipulating the center switch on the steering wheel.

I agree with Cecil/WV. I've been using Kroil for years along with an application of a little acetylene heat and it has never failed me. If something is heavily rusted, wait a day or two before attempting to loosen. Peter

Thanks guys for taking the time to inform me of Phil's info. Peter

Can someone give the contact info to me for Phil Migliori? He's the locksmith fellow whom I believe lives in New York. I have a lock cylinder I need info on. Thanks, Peter

Hi Dan, Congrats on your progress with both projects. Peter in NH

Henry Ford IV. After having spent many hours assembling my 35 convertible sedan which had been completely apart for over 40 years, I'd like to pass on this advice concerning the small front fender braces. Don't snug them up tightly until your front fenders have been installed and you see how...

I agree with Ernstudet22. I used 3M contact cement on my original 32 and 35 boards with absolutely no issues at all.

I'm sure glad I don't have millions of dollars in my 32 5 window restoration. That's a ridiculously low price for a 32 in that condition.
