Anyone have pictures of the trunk lid seal on a Sedan? We tried to install a new one, but are not sure if we installed correctly. Should the lip of the seal sit behind the trunk lid, or between lid and body? Although the latter doesn't make much sense I guess... Thx. Dennis Verstuurd vanaf...

We hoped it was a '36, but it's not. I did some googling, but can't seem to figure out what year it is. Anyone an idea? Dennis

Working on a '36. We installed a new fuel tank and saw that the original fuel sending unit had a condenser. We can't find any info In the geeen bible or whatsoever if that was stock. Any info here? Thanks. Dennis

Is there anyone here who is running the original heating coil type fuel sending unit and gauge? Just wanted to know if it's normal for the needle to wobble a bit around it's position... Dennis Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-S931B met Tapatalk

We're at the point of installing a new center driveshaft bearing on a '40. Trying to get a tool together to install it. Is it correct though that the grease fitting should protrude into the hole in the rubber from the bearing? Something about the thread holding the bearing in place? That...

Anyone in the LA area who is selling 2 good used rear axle shaft for '39 till '41? Should have good splines (16 each) and thread. Thanks. Dennis Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-S931B met Tapatalk

We'll be visiting the Hershey swap meet in October and are looking for some parts. Just want to check in advance if anyone has the following parts and can take them to Hershey: - '37-'39 steering box - good used 1940 swaybar swivels (2) - 2 good used rear axle shafts for a 1940. Should fit...

Suitable for Ford Flathead V8 221 90hp engines from 1932 to 1938. This is a NOS set in original packaging. Ford parts number 48-6211-C. The boxes and bearings were marked here and there by the engine rebuiler, but were never installed because we went for 0.012 undersize. Located in the...

NOS original Ford Flathead 221 oversized piston set (.040) 01T-6110 and piston rings for the Ford Flathead from 1935-1942. These are correct for engines with an original standard bore of 3 1/16". These are the 'domed' pistons! The matching set of piston rings is an overcomplete set of 3...

We're working on a '36, rebuilding the stock brakes, suspension, steering, etc. The king pins that came off the car were toast. We got 2 NOS kits. We're running into a few issues. - we have 2 opposite king pins, but both marked L. We saw this on 2 others as well. Seems to be wrongly stamped...

Are the following colors correct for a '36 engine? - oil pan: gloss black - transmission case: Ford green - transmission cover: gloss black Thx. Dennis Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G781B met Tapatalk

Anyone ever installed an external oil filter on an engine which didn't have one originally? Any ideas/tips? I thought about using the top hole next to the oil sensor, which normally holds the bolt for the battery cable. Dennis Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G781B met Tapatalk

I'll be attending the Hershey swap meet next week. We're working on a 1936 221 (stock is 3 1/16" bore) which is getting .060 oversize domed pistons. 1 ring broke on installation and I'm looking for 1 or 2 replacements. It's the 2nd compression ring, .060 oversize. Does anyone happen to have a...

Our engine rebuilder wants a replacement for this pitted retainer/slinger. Weird enough I can't find anything. The ones I find online look different. Ours is a '36 LB engine. Anyone an idea? Dennis Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G781B met Tapatalk

Has anyone ever installed kit 5001 and 1070 on a stock '36 (original springs and brakes)? Summit and P&J of course, offer them, but there's no mention anywhere of different length shocks depending on ride height. P&J's customer service says the completely stock '36 would require longer shocks...

I could use some education on rebuilding the stock brake parts of our '36. There's this central brake mechanism, the clutch/brake pedal assy. and the same idea on the brake linkage at the drums. They have these bushings inside and it's all locked in by these peened pins/rivets. I can imagine...

I got this taillight stand, was told for a '36, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Anyone an idea what year it is? Maybe not even Ford?? Dennis Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G781B met Tapatalk

We're working on a 36 Sedan that hasn't driven since end of the 60s. Engine is being rebuild and I'm working in it's different components. I cleaned up the (probably original) voltage cutout that goes on top of the generator. Is there a way to test it's correct functioning while it's not...

I'm rebuilding a late 36 distributor, almost have it finished. I was wondering what the max gap may be between the rotor and the cap contacts. And is the washer supposed to go all the way over the pointy end of the bolt (for the plunger spring)? The pointy end is conical, it would take some...

We're working on my brother's 40 standard coupe, freshly imported from Texas to The Netherlands. Has been off the roads probably since end of the 60s. I took the intake and drivers side head off today. Looks very promising as far as I can tell. No visible cracks, smooth cilinder walls. We're...
