Just thought I'd try to see if someone knew where I could locate a set of rear bumper irons: 68 17795, Arm (inner) - RH 68 17796, Arm (inner) - LH 68 17786-D, Arm (outer) - RH 68 17787-D, Arm (outer) LH If not original, is anyone re-popping these arms?

My gauge developed a leak and has corroded the entire assembly. Took me 2 hours to get it out! Looks like the metal tube from the brass vial parted where it joins the glass tube. Is there someone who restores these gauges? It's the deluxe version that shares the instrument cluster with the...

I just installed Bob Drake '34 headlights on a Limeworks headlight bar on my '32 roadster. I drilled a second hole to run stainless cables to the grille shell. The hollow mounting bolt seems to be fastened in the bucket with a plate and four small nuts/bolts. The top of the hollow mounting...

I'm tired of ruining the paint on my LR fender with gas spillage. I've never actually seen one of these optional filler necks for wagons. Does anyone know where I might find one of these gas filler necks?

Before I flop down on the sofa to watch football, I'm going to put 15 miles or so on the woodie today. A glorious 45 degrees here in New England. Haven't put the windows in yet!! Have a happy Thanksgiving with your families!!

I have heard from more than one person that legislation has passed in Massachusetts requiring that all pre-1949 cars and trucks must be brought to an RMV facility to be inspected to see if they are in original condition or hot rods. Failure to bring the car in will terminate the registration...

I just finished installing a horn relay in the woodie because the original horn button contact will no longer take the load. The passenger side horn works fine but the drivers side horn will only sound if remove the dome and ground the wire to the horn base. No amount of tweaking the points...

Gotta replace the tie rod ends on the woodie today than drive her on this beautiful New England holiday weekend. Savor our freedoms everyone, we're very lucky to live in the USA! Get those Fords out on the road!!!!

Has anyone purchased Drake's new cast iron left side manifold, p/n HR-9431? I'm thinking of buying one for my '35 woodie for a dual exhaust installation. A little less expensive than buying headers for a summer daily driver.
