    Where are the Guidelines?

    It seems to me, that especially with the recent purge/return to values, that there needs to be a Sticky on what this Forum is really about. Over on the HAMB it clearly defines, with pictures, the traditional cars that will be allowed and discussed. My recollection, when Atomic Industries and...

    Window garnish molding differences?

    Well, much to my chagrin and continued frustration, I have "misplaced one of my '31 coupe's window garnish moldings. :( I am continuing to rack my senior brain as well as rechecking every cranny of the 350 square foot shop the car is in. I fear that I will need to buy another-fortunately Fall...

    Wanted:1931 Radiator emblem

    I am in need of a 1931 radiator emblem-with the Ford script indented, not raised. The presence of the mounting stud is not important, nor is the condition of the finish/paint. I just need the emblem itself in a condition I could strip and repaint it myself for a shop project. Thanks.

    Door handle escutcheons?

    I've got these repro door handle escutcheon plates from Mac's for my '31 coupe. They're in two parts-one is clearly a backing plate or similar, but i have really no idea how to correctly mount them. I'd appreciate any photos (of either side of the door panel) or information on what kind of hole...

    River Rouge Trivia

    Just for fun. In 1929, there were two stacks for the blast furnaces. What were their names? What is Fordensite? What was it used for on your Model A? No prizes except pride. I'll post the answers in a day or two. Merry,Merry.

    1931 tool list?

    I've done a search and looked at the "sticky" websites, so I apologize if I have over looked this, but: anyone have a list of tools that would be included in a '31 coupe tool kit or, even better, a list with illustrations? Thanks

    '31 Coupe rear roll pan?

    Is there a rear roll pan that goes below the flat panel that is below the deck lid? I can't seem to find a suitable rear end picture that shows me what I need to see. If you have a picture-rear of a '31 coupe with a trunk not a rumble seat and, hopefully, without a rear bumper please post it...

    Do I really have a T wrench?

    I bought a wrench today, similar to this picture-except mine only has the M in Diamonds, the 645 and says only "Brake and Reverse". Any help with an ID-year,etc or maybe aftermarket? would be appreciated. It was one of three wrenches I bought for $2 (another was a Model A open end wrench) so I...

    Traffic light finder prism-inverted?

    Y'all know those traffic finder prisms? They help us folks with visors-like Model A's-to see the traffic light when we're up close to the line. The two I have found, a suction cup one that mounts to the glass, and the more refined Guide style, mount from the dash. I need one that mounts...

    Slightly OT:Help for old dog

    I've been out of town for a week. One of y'all sent me a message asking for vet help for an old, stiff dog-maybe while "BOB" was campaigning? and now I can't find it. I'd love to help if that FordBarner would contact me again. Thanks.

    What are these odd interior blocks?

    These interior blocks, some sort of composite?, appear to be original to the car ('31 coupe) and are shaped to blend the complex curve of the door post into the flat surface below the window to mount the interior to. In the first picture, the middle piece is actually pointing at the camera and...

    Which way does th etrunk handle go?

    Ok, this is probably a very silly question. I have a '31 coupe and haven't had a trunk handle on it yet. So does the handle point to the right when it's open and point down when the latch is closed? Or something else? Thanks

    Windshield Bracket

    I've got a '31 coupe and have had it apart so long that I can't remember how the windshield brackets go back on! I have attached some (bad) photos for reference, but I can either put them on with the swing arm attachment facing in toward the center of the windshield or facing out toward the...

    Dreaded WIW? Please advise

    The attached photos are of a car that belongs to the "friend of a friend". Really. The owner died, leaving no will, but three kids who will likely end up in a legal dispute over the estate. They have a certified appraiser lined up if need be, but it would be really great if I could help them...

    Ford Motors Mining Tunnels

    In the Model A years, Ford had a glass plant in St Paul, MN and tunnels to mine sand under the plant. Here's a link to an interesting look at what's there today: http://www.actionsquad.org/ford.htm Disclaimer: I am not condoning the trespassing by this group onto private property-but it is...
