    What would be the last year for a Ford truck to have a headlight switch like a model A in the steering wheel? The doors look like a 40 truck but the steering wheel looks like a model A with a horn button in the center.

    I'm the 4th owner of this original 40 coupe with 54,800 original miles. It's 99% rust free, solid and runs and drives like a new 40 Ford.

    Rucker overhead valve conversion

    What would be a good rear end ratio to run over the high cost of a Mitchell overdrive unit. This Rucker runs two Stromberg carbs and headers. Don't know anything else about the engine but it sounds healthy. It's in a stock 30 Model A coupe. For instance, would 3:00's be too tall or would a lower...

    41 mercury engine question

    I have looked at Van Pelt's web site and any other sites that related to this subject. 1941 Mercury engines should have 19A on the heads, was there any chance that the 19 could be left off and just an A shows? Or does the A say what year or make the engine is, engine appears blue?

    40 Coupe won't wake up from winter sleep

    I got the 40 coupe out this May from its winter hibernation and it started up fine and ran fine. But it has no power, doesn't smoke or make noises. I did all the normal checks that I will skip to save some time. The only two things seem to be the vacuum running steady in the 12 range which says...

    1940 Ford coupe

    I'm looking for a stock 1940 ford 5 window or business coupe in nice shape. I don't want a rusty car but it can have some very minor rust.

    early generators

    Who sells parts to rebuild cut-out relay generators, like the dual tapered bearings pre-load adjustment screw which is some kind of soft pot metal with a wire ring to lock it when the adjustment is done? I can't seem to find anyone selling parts except brushes or bearings. Thanks for any help...
