Ok I have used many recently unused retired words to try to persuade the 35/36 glove box return springs into their allocated position. Epic failure. I don’t have sumo fingers, is there as tested way to get them to expand without destroying the new dash paint to remind me of my failed attempt.

Have been trying to get a good link to specialty motor cams but so far have come up empty. The 1932 B 4 with a cragar OHv conversion, a scat crank and scat rods etc after not even being run in like 400 miles or less. Developed a Donka donka noise , I thought small end knock . Upon pulling it...

@V8fordman . I was looking for some 35 glove box hinges. Jay said he had some . He had a package already to go to @Lawrie in Australia. Yesterday Lawrie called in to home in NZ with the hinges. Visited for a couple of hours. Swell guy to visit with and a vast fund of knowledge. Nice to meet v8...

FOUND ONE LOCAL THANKS . We need a nice rebuildable or better 57 on y bock distributor . We thought we had a nice autolite one looked rebuilt, but alas not. It had a chewed up shim under the advance plate and the gear and top shaft retainer had been re drilled, poorly. The shaft had a lot of end...

35 to maybe 48 , we need a pair for a 36 passenger glove box door. Any thoughts as to who to try ? Out of stock; third gen, CW moss, C&G, Drake , early ford store, Macs, Carpenter. Running out of options. We have no springs at all .

Seems a weak design ,but it is old. The coupe handle has the stalk with an internal thread and I assuming the other flat handle to be 4 dr. As you can see the other weak pint is the area around pivot pin, it has a crack , I have one with a broken off pivot. It’s the two tabs near the leading...

Have been searching for 1955 F100 RHD steering box rebuild kit, worm ,sector ,everything. Any leads on a good source?

Who do we turn to for 1/2” belt 49 to 53 water pumps in an early chassis. Meaning narrow belt long water pumps with side ears . The motor is a 50 merc. I just think it will look ugly with 50 merc pumps and 2 1/2” stands to make up the difference.

Alas should have dismantled the box first, worm is pitted .. so have to make another plan …We have what appears to be a nice 32 BB steering box less pitman arm . It is 0.123 bigger at the start of the splines than a passenger sector shaft. The spline count and positioning is exactly the same as...

I picked up a fairly decent 32 big truck steering box . I knew it was from a big truck as it had the 4 spoke steering wheel and a much longer column drop. No problem I thought, just swap those out. It is a RHD box which is what we want. No pitman arm with it. Dang I have 8 or 9 pitman arms and...

We wish to change our RHD 32 steering box to 15 to 1 or 17 to 1 . I think I saw a worm available at 15 to 1 for RHD I assume the sector needs upgrading also . Have not found a vendor with a 15 to 1 sector yet.

We are seeking a rebuild able 32 RHD steering box. With a pitman arm if possible.Any location. The pickup is going back to all original ,from just a pile of parts.

This wasn’t what I was expecting to see on our early 32 diff . I can see a key way in there. But what holds the drive shaft in place? I want to remove it.

78-13471-B. LH 1937 Phaeton and Convertible Sedan tail light stand NOS very nice. Unfortunately it won’t fit our coupe. It’s the black one the gold one is the broken one off our coupe.

A good buddy sent this down to us to replace our broken 37 tail light stand.He certainly did not know it was different than stock as he is a36 guy . The pictures he sent were very good. But what model is it off? Clearly taller and a different shape. so the search for a good LH one continues.

Just checking if anyone has a schematic drawing of the French flathead v8 oil pipe ports and layout. It will be a full flow remote Hildebrand (sp) type system. I know I have seen a schematic years ago from SF ford, but danged if I can find it now.

We don’t have a catch ,for want of a better word. The bit the latch hooks under The 5W style i don’t think will work as the rear panel is shorter on a cab and the horizontal support panel is much close to the deck lid than on a 5W . A picture would be worth a 1000 words. Had a look at a...

After owning this coupe 37 years found this yesterday upon unloading the trunk after a decent run . Does any one re pop these now . LH side. Found a spare but its heading the same direction.

Will repro 32 roadster sub rails work in a 32 cabriolet.?? As I don’t believe anyone makes cabriolet sub rails.

We were measuring a buddys original 32 5W door sill scuff plates 26 1/2 “ . didn’t measure his 32 delivery but he said the 5W ones were too short . Yet most dealers list 5W and Tudor as the same? He had a spare 5W set ,so we measured our 32 cabriolet and that came out as 27 1/2” . So are tudor...
