    35-36 parts - garage clean out

    Look at the pictures and you decide if these fit what you need. Selling as a lot, if you buy it you can part out the individual pieces. Kind of heavy so about $40 for shipping. free pickup in Palm harbor or Seminole, Fl What I do know: Door latches with the lock mechanism fit passenger side. 35...

    36 ford headlight bulbs from Ron Francis?

    They list their part # B-2337 as a 125/75 candlepower. They say, with their special socket HS-2337, they will fit original 1936 reflectors. Anybody tried these with aftermarket reflectors with the original front lense?

    1937 a/c help

    Ditto on vintage air. Upgrade your alternator to at least 100 amps to handle both the blower and A/C clutch and especially if you have an electric rad fan. Use a "trinary" switch that will turn the fan on only as needed based on heat.

    Bob Drake 36 headlight conversion

    Anybody tried this conversion? I really want to keep the original lens' in my 36. I have a 12 volt conversion and I can run H4 halogens in the original type reflectors that are adapted for H4's. The problem is only the "high beam" filament is properly aligned in the reflector. The low beam...

    1936 5 window project: what to do?!?

    Better than what I started with. I paid $2K plus $990 for delivery for a basket case with all kinds of stuff missing. Those rear fenders are wort $500 each and so is the trunk lid. If the frame is good you've still got a good deal. If the motor turns over you've got a GREAT DEAL.

    MIGHTY WIPER for a '36 tudor?

    Yup, it does "fly up" around 60 mph. I just put one of those picture hanger self sticking hooks on the windshield up wher the blade "parks". It's the kind with a pull tab to remove it. It's been on there for over a year.

    MIGHTY WIPER for a '36 tudor?

    I have a Mighty Wiper in my 36 coupe. Works great. One speed only. Only designed for one blade. Fits well behind the header panel.

    Not Ford related but you guys are my best resource

    I'd stay far away from Atlas. See my email to thier distributor below. It's all made in China (no surprise) and I don't trust the quality of any of the fasteners. The distributor (gregsmithequipment) did nothing to help. From: TomMorookian@aol.com [TomMorookian@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday...

    1936 coupe roof question

    Lots of posts on this. Henry never spent money until he had to. His stamping presses where not big enough to make a 1 piece roof. Marketing even tried to advertise the canvas insert as a safety feature ( if you rolled it over and the doors would not open). 3 years after chevy went to the 1 piece...
