I’m replacing my ‘47 Ford COE radiator and reverting to the correct stock radiator. A previous owner installed a ‘53 truck radiator which doesn’t fit right. Consequently, the radiator pipes and hoses were hand made to fit the ‘53 radiator and are not stock and will not work. I would like to...

Ford Barners, I'm re-doing the entire fuel system from tank-to-engine on a stock 1934 Ford Pickup. The old system was not entirely stock as it had a younger tank, used a 1936 Ford King-Seeley electric fuel sending unit and gauge, and lacked correct fuel line placement among other issues...

Ford Barn, I am (attempting to) rebuild a '34 pickup fuel pump. The stock fuel pump internal valves (numbered 9352 on the included diagram) show they are supposed to be held in by a mounting plate (9361) and two screws (26466-S). However, the fuel pump I have, presumably aftermarket, does...

Fordbarners, I'm having ignition problems on a '34 Ford pickup and discovered the truck was equipped with Champion UD16 plugs by a previous owner. These plugs have an auxiliary gap, presumably inside the porcelain insulator designed for anti-fouling purposes and cause the plugs to run...

Ford Barners, I have a Stromberg 48 from a '34 Ford - everything is stock. The was rebuilt about 5 years ago with all new parts. I pulled the carb because the accelerator pump was sticking in the carb body and not adding fuel as designed. I've cleaned everything, replaced all the gaskets...

Ford barners, I'm replacing my air vent rubber seal and my trunk seal on my '39, both of which need to be glued in. I bought a tube of 3M Auto Yellow Super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive (#08001) which should be the old style "gorilla snot" glue. Is this the stuff to use or have others...

Ford Barners, I had to replace my rear axle oil on my '47 COE with the 2-speed axle after my brake job. All the Ford literature on the 2-speed axle directs the use of 90W EP oil if below 100 degrees and 140W EP oil above 100 degrees. I'm going with 90W based on my planned operating...
