We replaced the top and bows on 28 AA cab(we got it without tip), top looks great. Edge binding/trim to cover where top/cab meet the closed cab roof……does anyone have a close picture that I can see what it looks like finished?

I saved a 1934 rear axle assembly from the scrapyard, didn’t need it but couldn’t let it be destroyed. Free to anyone who needs it, just come get it

Was rebuilt by one of Fordbarns recommended shops.

My stock (I assume) 5 window coupe v8 with Aluminum intake, I believe needs fuel pump rod replacement. What length is it, and where would you recommend I order replacement? Also, previous owner put in 8v battery that is now on last legs. Do you recommend returning to 6v, or continue with...

Your reputation is far superior than that of someone who may try and slander. New to the “old Ford v8” obsession, and your name is mentioned as one of the best by everyone I’ve spoken with.

I’ll switch carbs tomorrow. Plugs in right order, we double checked. Thank you all! My first early Ford is quite a learning experience!

I would love to have some reference to look back on, i would appreciate any guidance. I have the early Ford v8 club book, but I’d like to obtain service manuals…..copies etc…

Charlie, I’ve no doubt as to the work that was done, and I appreciate your integrity in this matter. The problem seems likely a stuck valve. I replaced the fuel tank(new), fuel lines, fuel pump(rebuilt)and carb(rebuilt), distributor and coils rebuilt too. Wires and plugs new and gapped...

Any suggestions on carb? It was sent out to be professionally rebuilt....I came home and bolted it on and it idled beautifully Generator is not operating at all, so I need to have it rebuilt Also have to have the horns that need to be rewired/rebuilt...... This car had been sitting for many...

So here is the update: At warm running temperature runs/idles perfectly. when going uphill i have some intermittent bucking, and when i play with the choke it seems to clear up almost completely. Secondly, any suggestions for replacing my 6v generator ? Any/All are appreciated

Charlie, I did in fact have it done by one of you.......and now may have messed that up. I believe I backed it out to where it was......onto vacuum check etc......I’m learning ;(

I thank everyone for the suggestions, please know it was rebuilt and put on a sun machine. I had coils, distributor, carb, fuel pump all rebuilt professionally.....by persons suggested here on the forum.

Any suggestions on where to start with adjusting the timing on my 34 ford v8? I am assuming the lack of power and popping through the carb has a lot to do with it........all the way out and work in? Or run the adjusting bolt all the way in? Is there an old reference guide on how to properly...
