    32 trans pops out of second gear

    I've got all the other major issues sorted out on my Model B 32 truck. The only one left is the trans. I haven't pulled the cover off to look inside yet. The only real issue is it pops out of second gear when I let off the gas. If the engine is under load it'll stay there. I'm no trans...

    32 Model B exhaust gasket question

    I'm fighting an exhaust leak at the end of the exhaust manifold to the first pipe heading towards the muffler. I've ordered a new B-5250 pipe from Macs and their website says there is a gasket or coupling that goes between the manifold and pipe that is available at most parts stores. What...

    Question about orientation of windshield gasket on 32 truck

    This is a question about the gasket that goes down each side and across the bottom of the frame. Not the hinge gasket. Looking at the attached pic which side goes towards the windshield frame? The top or bottom?

    Anybody mount a brake pedal switch on a 32 Ford with mechanical brakes.

    I picked up one of these brake switches from Macs. Hoping I could make it work on a 32 Ford with mechanical brakes. Trying to find a mounting spot for it in the brake pedal area. Anybody do it before and can give me a pic?

    1932 Ford Gurus: Windshield question

    I've got a windshield frame for a sedan but the lower bar is pretty rotten, like most of them are. Repros from Macs are really expensive but repros for the 3 window are cheaper. My question is: Is the bottom bar between a sedan/5 window frame and a 3 window the same? If so I'll buy a cheaper 3...

    32 Ford truck door adjustment

    There is no adjustment at all in the hinges is there? I can't see how there could be any. The top corner of my door hits the cab yet the bottom has a least a half inch gap. Do I just try to adjust the door into the position I want by flexing with some blocks of wood or something?

    30-31 top wood brackets being reproduced?

    Does anybody know if the brackets that join all the wood together on a 30-31 coupe are being reproduced by anyone? You see the rear brackets on ebay occassionally but never the front or middle ones. Surely not all model a's survived with those pieces still there. I'm looking for a set.

    Another 32 Banjo question

    Took my drum off and holy crap everything and I mean everything is soaked in oil. I also noticed the shaft moves a lot more than the other side did. The seal has to be shot in the end of the bell correct? I've never had one of these apart so I'm just learning. Watch the video in the link and...

    Question about mechanical brakes

    Just a quick question about the clevis and pins at each wheel for the mechanical brakes. I assume they should be tight and have no slop in them. Mine are quite sloppy proabably from the 80 years of use. By the time all the slack gets taken up the pedal has moved quite far and hasn't even started...

    Have I got my 32 motor mount installed correctly?

    I've got a 4 cylinder engine. All the flathead motor pics I found show it installed this way with the cone of the rubber facing up. However my crossmember is dished making me think the rubber should be facing cone down with the big washer between the ruber and engine. Or have a I got this...

    My 32 Truck

    Some of you would have seen this on the Hamb already. Picked it up this week about 2 hours north of where I live. A sweet old original truck. In pretty good shape. I'm thrilled to have it.
