My son and I are building a replica 40 battery tray for our pickup. Any Barners have any of the dimensions? Thanks guys.

I have several flathead heat sending units and would like to identify them for the years they originated. Any Barners know of a list that shows the matching numbers? Thanks.

I'm using 41 doors on the 40PU that I'm building. I notice that the books call for 41-47 interior door handles/cranks. Anyone know the difference from the original 40 PU? Thanks.

I'll be purchasing a new 40PU hood ornament. But, I want to get the correct one. I have two old ornaments hanging on the garage wall and I am wondering which type fits the 40 pickup (both appear to be the standard style)? The flat service (where the handle connects) extends 2 1/4" and has only...

I'm building a 1940 Ford pickup and often see door windows for sale with frames around them. I was under the assumption that the glass windows simply rolled up into the felt track. Do the pickup windows need metal trim frames that go up and down with the glass? Thanks Barners.

Building a 1940 pickup. I read an archive thread on wiring your classic and the person ended by saying that he always adds a 50 amp fuse from the wiring harness to the solenoid. But, when I checked 50 amp fuses at the auto stores, they are all 12v. The holders have wires much smaller than the...

Building a 1940 Ford pickup. I ordered a horn relay on line several months ago (don't remember the company now). It has a sticker on it that says 6V, but when I examined it closely there was a 12v stamped into the metal cover. Any chance that it will work correctly on 6v? Also, the terminals...

40 Ford pickup. Have need of a photo showing the Resistor & Circuit Breaker board correctly mounted under the dash. Difficult to find since no one ever photographs the inside of the firewall. Thanks.

Preparing to rewire the 1940 Ford pickup I am building and noticed that the ignition resistor is missing on the breaker assembly board. (Two wires hanging.) I've read that the ballast resistor should be 1.5 ohms, but I see in the Macs catalog that their 32-48 ignition coil resistor is listed as...

Anyone have a rebuildable 1940-47 pickup vacuum wiper motor for the PASSENGER side? It looks like the drivers side except it is a mirror image with the valve switch on the opposite side. I'll include a photo. Thanks Barners.

Looking for a rebuildable Right Wiper Motor for a 1940 Ford pickup complete with arm and chrome parts that screw on the wiper stem. I'll include a photo. The right motor is not the same as the left. It faces the opposite direction. Thanks Barners.

Restoring 40 pickup. Plan to have two windshield wipers. I assume that they used two separate motors running off the same vacuum, right? Thanks.

Building a 40 pickup. Does anyone know if the 1940 car front bumper brackets will fit the 1/2 ton commercial? Thanks.

My old Ford has a 1960s or 70s antique tag (Tenn) in the trunk. How do I go about tracking the tag to see who owned it? I bought the car in the late 70s from a dealer. He simply said that it came out of Tennessee. That's all I have for information. Thanks.

A friend and I have been discussing the original Ford script in the middle of a 1940 pickup dash. Were all of them embossed into a raised place on the dash? I know that in 41 they used the rectangle chromed script/plate. Thanks Barners.

Is there a later model bench seat that can be modified to fit in the 1940 Ford pickup (without removing the metal riser platform)? Thanks.

Does anyone know where I can find the correct stainless screws for the interior windshield garnish and divider for my 40 Ford pickup? Thanks Barners.

I'm rebuilding 40 pickup doors. I discovered a screw-size hole at the top of each door about where you would rest your arm. They are concave in a 1/4 inch circle. My plan was to simply fill them, but then I wondered if they had any purpose such as mounting something inside the door. They are...

Repairing a 40-47 style Ford pickup horn and need the value and working voltage of the capacitor for replacement purposes. I figure that "Only the Shadow" Barners will know. Thanks.
