Bought a 40 ford delivery van with shaved handles. Old resto from 2005. Auto box poppers. Passenger door worked. Put new engine in it. Now neither door opens. Fobs are good. Is there a brand that I can get to replace the fobs and receivers and not mess with the poppers themselves or does the...

I have a 40 ford deluxe van. The interior door handles need replaced. Problem is it looks like there is more than one pin going through. I thought there would be the spring but it is pins. Do they hammer out or how do you get them out.

Have a 1940 deluxe delivery that was customed in 2005. Like to buy carpet for it that is ready to install. Don't see a lot of changes from original carpet as far as design changes. Have not been able to find a place. Any help is appreciated.

Working on 40 van headlights. 12 volt light bulbs for parking/turning light bulbs. It appears that the bulbs socket is set up for "straight across" notches. All I can find is off set notches for this bulb. Do I need to change sockets or where can I buy the straight across notched bulb. Kind of...

I have a 40 ford deluxe van converted to 12 volt. Just bought it. Driver side head light barely comes on, passenger side is normal. Switch the lights and the driver side with the passenger side headlight still does not come on right. Driver side light on the passenger side now works correctly...

I have 4 wheels that are 16 inch for a 1940 Ford. I bought the car and they came with it. However they were not on the car. The person I bought the car from had bought these to go back on the car. I have 15 inch on mine and will stay with them. I would like 25 dollars each and you pay the...

Looking for a set of working horns for a 1940 Ford Coupe.

looking for a fuel pump stand that will fit a 40 ford flathead-85 HP. if you know where to buy one it would be greatly appreciated.

I have been reading old forums on carbs and fuels issues. My 40 was not getting fuel all of a sudden. I ordered new fruel pump and such. However, it was pumping gas to the carb (not sure if enough or not). I had the carb rebuilt about two months ago. Worked fine up until now. I use starting...

I have a 40 and I want to change the fuel pump push rod. Is it difficult and is there a secret to it? Thanks for any help.

Can't keep my 40 running. Noticed is was hard to start without chocking the devil out of it. Thought is was cause of the cold weather (for AZ anyway). Got it started took it out for a spin and it quit. Only way to get it running was to shoot starter fluid down the carb. Go about 50 yards and...

I have a 40 Ford that I bought. It has 15 inch wheels on it. Not sure of the rear end. But the speedo is about 20 mph off (faster than actural). It has a #19 gear in it. Is there one that will get me closer to the actual speed and is it available anywhere. Will it fit in the housing easily or...

After a lot of trial and error I found out my resistor was bad. I had juice from the ignition to the resistor but none coming out so no juice to the coil. I changed the resistor and man it started right up. Have had the new one on for about two weeks. I go out to start it and my battery is low...

I bought a 40 and the thermostats seem to be in the neck and held there with pins through the casting. I am not sure they are opening correctly. How do these come out and do the new ones just set in the neck? I have enclosed a picture. Hope I did it right and it turns out.

I read somewhere that if the spark retard is set wrong that it could heat up the engine. Is there any truth to this? I have the helmet distributor. Any advice will be appreciated.

My 40 will not fire unless I touch a wire to the battery (neg side) and then touch the coil when cranked. Do I have a short from ignition to coil? Not sure where to start.
