I need some Fordbarn "Wood installing experts" to help me with this matter. My '31 SW Sedan came without a top. Only the old rotted wood remained. Luckily a complete replacement wood kit came with the car. I checked the old wood against the new wood pieces and all matched perfectly for shape...

Once again, thanks to all those who provided me with some very good and sound advice regarding the clutch release mechanism problem that I'm still involved with resolving. To begin with, I've finally come down to the decision of taking things apart to get to the Bell Housing interior. I do...

To begin with, please excuse me because for some reason I've been unable to follow the help that's been given to be in chronological order. My replies appear to get scattered around. No doubt it's my lack of knowledge as to how to use the system properly. Anyway, it appears my clutch...

Has anyone else experienced a problem with installing an upper bushing into a 1931 steering column? I bought a new upper steering column bushing from Bratton's and there's no way that it will fully insert into the steering column using all the pounding force and grease I can use to pound it...

I appreciated all of the information I recevied on my first post about replacing the wooden header on my 1931 Slant Window; however, before I use my cutoff wheel to cut metal to remove the header, I want to be absolutely sure that I'm not cutting off more metal than what is needed. I've been...

Hi All, I'm going to replace all the top wood on my '31 Slant Windshield 4 Door and wondering, once all the old wood is removed, is there an easier way to install the wooden header without the metal cutting and re-welding of the window pillar sides. Thanks in advance to all who reply to my...
