Does anyone have any photos of how much a seat swings forward on a '36 Slantback? I know they go forward but how much? How much stuff can you fit back there? Thanks!

Does anyone know if a '37 cowl vent hinge and handle will work on a '36 cowl vent? All of our extra '35/36 assemblies are junk and I know where I can get a '37 for parts. Thanks.

What was the first year for Ford, Mercury and Lincoln to have a power top on the convertibles? I know the '41 Cadillacs had a power top, but what about FoMoCo?

On my coupe, the passenger door has gradually gotten to the point where I have to slam the snot out of the door to get it to close. Otherwise, it doesn't catch and stops on the outer striker. Is this systematic of the striker being worn out, or does something else need readjusted?

What is the story on the chrome dash trim? Just an interesting aftermarket replacement part? They were all some form of plastic originally right? I remember we had some on a '46 and a '47 back in the '80s. Who first started making them?

I know I'm going to get alot of grief from certain friends, and from people I've never actually met, but here goes. Late this winter, my Dad and I decided that the time had come to go down the path of getting some new paint on the 5 window. Some backstory for those that don't know... My Dad and...

At the swap meet yesterday, I bought what I think may be a late '36 black shift knob with the V8 logo. Height and shapewise, it's in between a regular '36 knob and a '37/38 knob. In other words, not as round as the earlier '36 w/o the logo, but more rounded (taller) than the '37/38. Does this...

Does anyone know if it's possible to take the knob off of an aftermarket suicide steering wheel knob for use as a shifter knob? Modifications required? I don't have one or I'd take it apart myself to find out.

This thing has some pretty good parts on it still. The grille is nice, tailgate, hood, plus all kinds of odds and ends. It's a shame the cab was cut, because look at those rockers!! $600, motor and trans not included.
