    Wanted: 1941 Pickup Hood Front Trim Whiskers

    Looking for 1941 1/2 Ton Pickup front hood trim pieces. Also called “whisker” trim pieces. I am not looking for the waterfall, but trim on the front sides. Part numbers 11C-8264/5 Unchromed would be ideal. I will be painting them, so chrome quality is not important. Let me know what you have...

    Area for seller feedback?

    Is there an area here for feedback on sellers? I’ve seen this on other old car forums where you can post positive or negative experiences with sellers. Especially helpful for great sellers or to see if some people have a track record of deception that should be avoided.

    Best Quality 1940 Rear Hub?

    I’m trying to track down a good used rear hub, if they still exist. I assume like most things, the originals will be better than reproduction. But if I have to go new, I see Speedway, Thompsons Garage, CW Moss, and (and C&G but they’re out of stock) are selling reproduction rear hubs...

    1940 Failed Rear Hub Seal?

    I’ve just noticed this on my 41 pickup. On the drivers side, grease has started to weep out around the end of the hub. Does this look like a hub seal failure? It feels like old hard grease.

    1941 Pickup Temp Gauge

    I’m looking for the temp gauge to fit my 41 pickup and came across this one recently. From what I’ve seen, all the other temp gauges for 41-47 did not have that green bar in the middle. What model or year is this one for?

    Leak at top of oil filter

    Please forgive me if I missed this in the search. I changed my oil filter for the first time, (this is my first flathead), and although I'm glad she runs after replacing a cracked head, oil is gushing out of the top of the filter canister. I've tightened and reset the rubber seal on there three...

    Overheating in a few minutes.

    Hey guys, I'm running a stock 239 flathead in my '41 pickup. It's a fresh rebuild from a very quality builder. I also have a freshly rebuilt stock dual-core radiator. I've put less than 100 miles on the engine with no temp problems. However, we just installed a crab distributor with a...

    Brake light not working?

    Hey guys, I have a stock '41 pickup. New wiring harness, new bulbs, new brakes. I've gotten everything to work, but the brake light. The light will work when I jump the two wires at the switch with a jumper wire, but not when I press the pedal. I replaced the switch at the master cylinder, but...

    Problems with new Mac's fuel pump?

    I bought a new fuel pump from Mac's for my '41 pickup with a 239 and it seems as though it may not be keeping up? When I drive for a few minutes in any gear in the higher rpm range, the carb starts to choke itself out until I let up on the gas or shift. It will also only run if I fill the...

    '41 Flathead Not Starting

    I am trying to revive my pickup which has been sitting, well-preserved, in an Ohio barn for about 20 years. It was restored prior to being stored, but has been rather neglected. I have rebuilt the Ford 94 carb and the fuel pump. The gas lines are clear with a new gas tank (I can pull gas...
