My '47 Ford was modified along the way so that it would have turn signals. You can see from the attached images a zinc bracket that holds two different types of bulbs. The small blade bulb on the lest serves as brakes and directionals. The round bulb is wires for running lights at night. That...

Can anyone tell me where I can find the taillight bucket inserts like the ones in the photo? Thank you.

My '47 Ford has no brake lights. I'm trying to diagnose why. The directionals and parking lights work but not the brake lights. The car has an older after market turn signal installed (Signal-Stat 900). It also has a taillight configuration like one in the image attached. The car is still 6...

Does anyone know here can I find a diagram of the entire linkage system from the gas pedal to the carburetor for a 1947 Ford with a Holley Model 59 carburetor? I believe on occasion; something is getting hung up when I come off the accelerator at a light or stop sign and the carb doesn't fully...

I have a 1947 Ford convertible. Every so often - it seems to be more after it's been driven a while - the accelerator pedal will not fully return after being released. This will cause the engine to idle higher than normal. When this happens, I have to get the sole of my shoe under the pedal to...

I have a 1947 Ford convertible with a 59A-B V8 engine. I am looking to replace the oil pan which I believe is part 59A6675-B. I have two questions. 1. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a pan? 2. How involved is replacing the pan (and associated gaskets) while the engine is...

I have a 1947 Ford Super Deluxe. I am in need of a new 6 volt battery in the correct Ford script case. I believe my current one is simply an Optima battery in a reproduction case. Does any one still make these? Can the old case be re-used with a new Optima battery? Any information or direction...

Hoping for some help. My tail light directional flasher is out. A picture of the brake light and directional flasher is attached. The flasher bulb (on the right) does not seem removable and I think the bracket assembly is after market. Is anyone familiar with or know where I might find this...

I've heard about Bob Brown's Sportsman Shop in Alger, WA. Does anyone have contact information for him? Any help appreciated. Thank you.

A theoretical question: Could a standard 1946-1948 Ford convertible be converted to a woody? Is it mechanically/structurally possible?

An un-solicited plug for a company called Grain-It Technologies of Winter Haven, FL. I sent them the interior pieces of my 1947 Ford. Evan Westlake and his crew did a fantastic job. I'm very pleased with the results. They can be found at: http://woodgraining.com/ Pics attached.

I'm looking for a spare tire nut for my 1947 Ford. It is the type that a lock can be attached to. Need 1/2" thread. Looks something like picture attached. Please PM me if you have one to sell. Also looking for a functioning keyed lock for same.

The horn ring on my 47 Ford is loose. It's locked in it's position, but it still jiggles. Sometimes road bumps will cause it to "toot" when it shouldn't. I recently replaced to foam insulator that is supposed to keep the ring away from the contact points but it doesn't seem to be dense...

I was at the Eastern National Meet last week in Gettysburg, PA. In one of the 47 Fords I noticed a special nut that was used on the bracket that holds the spare tire in place in the trunk. Apparently it is some type of locking lug nut with a thick square washer. Does anyone know exactly what...

I'm looking for some help. I have a 1947 Ford convertible. There is a channel on the back side of each vent-window frame that the driver/passenger window fits in. Inside that channel is a black felt-like material that protects the driver/passenger window frame from scratches. My fuzzy...

The sun visors on my 47 Ford droop. By this I mean they wont stay in the up position. They slowly drop into the down position. Is fixing this as simple as putting a slight bend in the sun visor rods? Any other solutions? Thanks.
