My`35 Cabriolet has been sitting for awhile and now the clutch won't release. The pedal travel is good, just won't release. It was fine when parked. Thanks.

Interesting. Our Flatheads nearly made the Top 10 engines of all time. http://www.onallcylinders.com/2014/01/25/top-10-engines-time-honorable-mentions-flathead-tri-power/

I had my 8BA engine for my F1 rebuilt by a local engine rebuilder. Shortly after the warranty ran out a lifter started tapping, then another. When we tore it down one lifter tappet had backed off an 1/8 inch and I could turn it with two fingers. I don't want to do this again so in your opinion...

Where can I buy the cream color grille paint for my `51 F1? Is it called Ivory? Thanks

I know its no big deal but I love hearing a flathead coming to life for the first time in months, especially with dual Smithy's. They burp, belch, fart, splutter and then like magic in a few seconds they smooth out into a drone.... There is no other engine that sounds like a Ford flathead V-8.

Just about every evening after checking my email and Fordbarn, I attend a car show (1932-1953) and they are all for sale! Cars, trucks, finished, fix'em up, barn finds, all makes, you name it. I haven't bought anything yet but have seen some that looks pretty decent for the money. Of course it's...

Does anyone have the website info that shows the results of the auction at Titusville?

On Friday, April 10th my wife, son and I attended a preview of cars to be sold at auction the following day in Titusville, Florida. We did not attend the auction the next day but I bet there were some happy campers. Although some were pretty rough, they were salvageable. There were several...

I just read some interesting comments about 3-Window versus 2-Window Coupes. Which car cost the most new? In buying a new car in the `30's I have always thought the Roadster was the cheapest priced car and the Four Door Sedan was the most expensive. Certainly looking at the amount of labor...

Are the radiator fan shrouds on the `48 thru `52 pickups the same for six cylinder and V-8's?

I just noticed the thread on Average Age For Fordbarners response has hit the 500 mark. That doesn't mean there are 500 members as there are lots of duplications. So let's start with the A's... Just kidding, that dog won't hunt.

Several years ago I made the owner of my uncle's `34 Ford rumble seat coupe sitting in his barn an offer I didn't think he could refuse. His father had bought it many years ago along with other collector cars. The father had passed away and I had heard they were selling the cars. I told him if...

I have a 59 engine with 59AB heads that I traded for several years ago. It has about 14,000 miles since a factory overhaul according to the last owner which I trust. I would like to mount it on a mobile test stand so I can start it occasionally. I have all of the components to do this, even a...

Wanted 1951 F-1 PICKUP radiator shroud, v-8 engine. Probably 1948-1952 will fit.

Wanted late 1935 louvered inner fenders

Wanted: Pair of late 1935 louvered inner fenders.

I would like to see some industrious person come up with some good high quality tube type heat gauges for our Fords. The two new replacements I bought were junk and the one I had rebuilt, the liquid turned clear. If they could make them in the `30's why can't someone make them now? I and...
