**SOLD** This 1932 Ford Model B Open Cab Pickup has been in our family since 1939 (86 years) when my dad traded a Model A and a horse for it. * Long Beach, CA assembly plant * Originally used as a fire service vehicle by County of San Luis Obispo, California * In the same family since 1939...

Diane Wood's "Retracing Mom and Grandpa's 1934 trip on Route 66 -- in a Model A!" Published 2018. Diane and her husband follow her mother's detailed journal notes as best they can, driving their own Model A Ford cross country. This is a print book. I read it, and it's in nearly new...

Hi, all. I'm considering selling my '32 Model B Roadster PU. Been in our family 80 years, so hasn't been for sale since my dad bought it in 1939. I think my family is the 3rd owner: County of San Luis Obispo was first, then a rancher in SLO County, Ed Patchett (not sure), who my dad traded a...

Does anyone sell a crimping tool for the chassis wiring bullet ends? I think it must have a half circle that supports the barrel while indenting the other half. These things are a pain to solder.

This is for a 32 Model B pickup. Just broke my Model B starter shaft. Stock 6v unit running on 12v. Heard this was a possibility someday. Mine is the post-style starter (post is on the bottom) for use with floor rod to switch, not the pull switch that's used on some '32s. Anyone know if these...

I thought some might be interested in this. My Dennis Carpenter knob set from a decade ago came with the Throttle knob already attached to the short, 1/2-round shaft for connecting to the linkage under the dash. Recently (perhaps due to the Redding, CA 110°++ heat), the knob began to slide off...

First, I have one of these rare bird flexible choke cables. But mine is a little kinked in a couple of spots, making fine adjustments difficult. It jumps about a 1/4 turn back and forth and I have trouble getting to that sweet spot as the engine warms up. So... I'm wondering if anyone has found...

I should know this, but... For my '32 RPU with wood floor, I've never been clear on how the rubber boots for gear shifter and emergency brake lever go on. Do the rubber flanges go: 1. under the floorboard, 2. go on top but under the mat/carpet, 3. or sit on top of the carpet? Are they tacked...

Okay, so I trailered my '32 Model B Roadster PU down to DMV a few weeks ago because they needed to verify the VIN for the title transfer from my deceased father (1975). Other than the trailer rental cost, that part went well. However, I still needed to go inside to finish the paperwork. The VIN...

I didn't get any response to this on the V-8 Forum, so trying here. This is for my 32 Roadster Pickup. Hoping someone can shed some light. I had my Model B engine rebuild years ago by Phil Andrews in Ojai, CA. He told my to add an oil pressure gauge to the full-pressure oil/filter system he...

Sorry for this odd question, but hoping someone can shed some light. I had my Model B engine rebuild years ago by Phil Andrews in Ojai, CA. He told my to add an oil pressure gauge to the full-pressure oil/filter system he installed. I'm sure he told me where to add it, but if I wrote it down, I...

Went to California DMV today to verify the VIN/Serial Number on my '32 Roadster PU. Hasn't been registered since 1975, and is still in my deceased dad's name. So I need to do a title transfer and then register. Unfortunately, the original pink slip Dad received states it is a 1939 model, first...

SOLD. Have a never-used 7-wire directional switch I bought new at a swap meet a couple of decades ago. I decided I didn't want the shiny chrome finish, so I disassembled it, sandblasted the surface to rough it up, and sprayed it black. The finish isn't the hardest, and I notice there are a...

Getting ready to figure out a top for my 32 roadster pickup. I think mine came from the factory without a top (there are no holes for snap fasteners on the original wood band around the back of the cab). The top frame I have is some cobbled-together stuff from a touring car or something, and...

No longer looking. Informed they didn't come with bumpers.

I haven't been able to find a 30 amp or even a 20 amp gauge with the wiring posts for my 32 Ford (the one I have is a 20 amp with pass through loop). I'm running a 60 amp alternator, and it pegs the gauge momentarily when it initially spins up. Then it drops to about 12-15 amps. So I was...

I'm hoping someone can help me identify these 16" rims I took off my '32 RPU. I have 5 matching, and 1 oddball. Pics 1-4 are of one of the set of 5 matching wheels. These are 4" wide (inside measurement where tire bead seals), and the center well is slightly offset--straight on one side and...

I can call Coker tomorrow before I take my tires and rims to the tire shop, but thought someone might know the answer. I received my new tires (Coker 600x16s, ordered through Summit Racing). They're blackwalls, but have a raised area on one side like where the whitewall would be. The other...
