Please see listing here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/-/172656582373? My father is ill, and I have a child on the way, so we cannot finish the project.

Hi guys, I want to know how far off the fitment of the interior panels is between the 1929 Briggs fordor, and the 1930-31. I wanted to get a set of precut panels from one of the suppliers, but they don't seem to have a set for the 1929 Briggs, only the 1930-31, or the 1929 Murray. How mutch...

I had an interesting thought just now. It goes against purist sensibilities, but I'm purely curious in an academic capacity. What would be involved in marrying an original ford-o-matic 3spd automatic transmission to the model A motor? It wouldn't be the same driving experience, but its an...

I'm going home to my folks house this weekend to work on our 29 Fordor, and would like somebody with some experience to come and help me with a mechanical assessment. I have the engine to a point where it runs, but I need help finessing it, and going over the brakes. I finally have the main body...

I see a lot of threads and posts about proper maintenance with guys checking this joint, or trying to fix this leak, or constantly adjusting the carb to get that perfect mixture. My question here, is if I just stick to the lube schedule, and keep an eye on my oil, and my engine runs reasonably...

Brand new, unused, B Pillars for 1929 Briggs Fordor Leatherback. Paid $264 each. Got them, and decided not to use them. Will accept paypal, shipping to be calculated later. $150 each + shipping

Does anyone have any experience or insight on possibly restoring window regulators on a 1929 Fordor? Not sure if I should just buy the reproductions, or take the time to restore the ones I have. Seems like sand blasting them (i have a sandblaster) and then replacing the clock spring would be...

The title says it all folks. My springs seem very... stiff... Can't really "push down" on the car. And from watching videos of my car pulling in to the driveway, its almost like instead of the wheel going up the curb as i pull in, its like the frame twists a bit. (no hood on the car at the...

Need an original light switch housing to fit a 7 tooth steering box. Would help also to have any of the internals (spider, springs, etc.), excluding the wiring harness. Can pay by paypal Thanks!

In the next few months I'm going to be doing the wiring on my 1929. I plan to buy the harness from Snyders that is prewired with all wiring, plus turn signals. My question is this, I do not have a light switch body or any parts associated with it. Can somebody explain to me the construction of...

Hi folks, My 1929 Fordor did not have the horn rod when I bought it. So I don't know how long I need it to be, can anyone shed some light on this? I have a 7 tooth steering box with a splined hub, if that helps. Car was manufactured April of 1929. Thanks!

I'm leaking gas from my carb, coming from the GAV needle. I replaced the needle, but still a problem. Anyone know if the needle housing is at fault or if I need a whole new lower bowl?

Does anybody know of a wood supplier other than Fordwood? They're backlogged and it could be almost a year before I get the wood parts I need. I don't even need new wood, I really just need some solid pieces. Mostly the roof and a pillar or two.

Silly question: Is there a lacing that goes between the radiator and the shell? Or does the shell just drop on the radiator, and the lacing is just for the hood to rest on?

Can anyone offer a suggestion on a relatively affordable place to purchase roof wood? someplace that offers the correct kit, and doesn't have to manufacture on demand would be nice. Thanks. I've already tried Macs, and I don't know what they sent us, but it was way off the mark.

I need to replace my running board supports as they are pretty foul. Anybody have any simple solutions for removing the rivets? We tried to pop the rivets with an air hammer already and either our hammer is weak, or these things are too strong for it. Hoping for one of the magic solutions the...

Does anybody have any experience with the fordor roof wood kits from MACs? Mine doesn't seem to fit quite right.

Ok, so i have seen the tail lights with the amber lens, for turn indicators, but if its amber, where would your stop/brake light be? Brake lights are traditionally red, not amber, so clearly you're moving the brake lamp somewhere else, and i thought the lower red light is not as bright or not...

probably an easy question, how do I remove the upper bushing on a 29 steering column? Also how can I prevent the spark and throttle handles from binding? I managed to remove the old ones, but I'm not sure how to keep the new ones from binding like the old ones did. Any advise on refurbing this?
