Engine decals. Each decal is $2.50 (which usually is less than 1/2 of what many dealers sell them for). Shipping for 1-5 is $1 (USA). Sorry, but Canadian shipping is extra. Radio dials are $7.00 US The fuel ration slips are printed on both sides (as original US). Canadian ($3.00 US)...

There are probably some insurance grues out there who can answer this question. During a discussion last night a question came up regarding coverage. If you insure a generally stock car and then undergo a significant horsepower increase (via engine change or accessories) and didn't tell the...

Anyone heard from Shadetree lately? Hope all is well. Tom

I have a set of Firestone tires that are marked "Made in New Zealand." I can find no date of manufacture. When did Firestone stop making tires in New Zealand? This might give me a clue as to how old these tires are. Thanks Tom

Quick question. Are Ford 8N tractor 6V coils the same as 1949-51 passenger 6V coils? Physically they look the same. Thanks Tom

Some of you may have seen this already but it is still fascinating to watch. Total time 6 days, 40,000 pictures https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_AY8bH3vxY&utm_source=ExactTarget&utm_medium=email&utm_term=&utm_content=&utm_campaign=Hagerty%20Weekly%20News%206-15-2016 Tom

It seems no one in town carries sta-lube 3131. I need it for a rear wheel bearings. The only HD grease available is sta-lube 3111 which is sort of a HD universal grease. On-line 3131 is available but shipping is kind of pricey for a can of grease, also there is the time element. I have...

Anyone been to the Midland , MI swap? It is suppose to be an antique meet but is there any flathead parts? Thanks Tom

Did anyone get to the Gilmore Pre-War show (Hickory Corners, MI). If so what was your reaction? As I understand, this is the first time it was held. Tom

Eastwood is having a sale on this powder coating. Anyone have any experience with it? Thanks Tom

Does anyone know the thread size of a '32-'48 steering gear filler plug (B-3538)? None of the "normal" parts suppliers seem to have them. Tom

Need some help on this. I have looked just about everywhere for the correct light bulb size used in a '35-'37 glove box clock. I can find no references in any Ford publications. A #51 bulb fits but is very, very dim. A #55 is too big. I am using 16g wiring and have a good ground. Any ideas...

Looks like I will be doing some painting soon. I will be using a base coat/clear coat with hardner. My question is this: If I need to put this car in service asap how would slush and salt affect the new paint? Tom

Time to look in your junk drawer. Any possibility of a bulb holder used in conjunction with a '35-'37 clock? It may be also used in other applications. Note picture. Thanks Tom

If you have your entire car original (6 volt positive ground) and wish to run an accessory such as a modern radio (12v, negative ground), you need a converter. I have used these in several cars over the years without ever experiencing a failure. This is where the puzzle comes in. Since the...

I have a small 12 volt dash light (2 cp). If I run 6 volts into into it, the bulb gets dimmer but doesn't die. Other than that does the longevity of the bulb also diminish? Thanks Tom

I have wired an after-market turn signal set up in my '35 and '36. From the dash switch a full 6 volts go to the flasher. Coming out of the flasher is 4 volts. This low voltage causes the turn signal lights to be dim. If I bypass the flasher the bulbs are nice and bright. I realized that the...

I just finished putting hydraulic brakes on a '36. Braking is now sure and straight but on occasion I get a distinct "clunk" Unfortunately, I can't tell exactly where it is coming from (my hearing could be better). :( I did have the rear axle apart to change an axle shaft that had bad...

There seems to be an endless number of stories of misfitting repo parts. Let me add another one to the list. I have a '36 and several of the hub cap clips are broken off. No-clips, no hubcaps. Fortunately, several suppliers sell 68-1034 clips ('36-'39). They are not cheap but neither is...
