Will one of these fit into the under floor battery location for my 36 Ford? Thinking about just setting it on its side and just using some sorta bungee cord to keep it in place. terry

Fellas, I'm selling my car. If you are interested, go to The Swap Meet section where I posted it yesterday. terry

I have had the car since 1970. It has the original engine which has has insert bearings and cast iron heads. It is a standard fastback that I have made many changes to, over the years: rt side tail light added, turn signals, switched to 12v neg ground, white wall radial tires, tube shocks front...

I've had these tools for years and never used them. Before I put them on the Swap Meet, could someone tell me what the tool on the right is used for? The left one says "flywheel bearing puller." The right one only gives this info: V176. Thanks. terry

this is my New Haven mirror clock that is slowing down so that it is losing 8 or 9 minutes after 3 or 4 hours after winding. The setting on the back is already all the way over as far as it can go to fast. My question is how do these clocks work? will they slow down as you get closer to the 24...

From 1935 to 1938, is the front plate on these generators interchangeable?

fellas, i want to grease my pumps and have some John Deere cornhead grease. It says high pressure. Is it okay for the pumps? Terry

Looking at flathead engine specs, I noticed that with the exception of the '34 ford (40A) there is no A at the end of the model #s Till 1938 (81A). Then they all end in "A" until 1949 (98BA). What does the A stand for and what does the B stand for? Terry

outside door handle no longer opens door on driver side. My problem is that i have the unit apart and don't know how the pcs fit back together, nor was i able to figure out the problem. The door opens fine from the inside. There is a spring in the unit that is still in the door and it looks...

I bought an early v8 3 brush generator converted to 12v. i want to put it in my 36. the generator now has 2 wires coming out of the top hole...one for generator (armature) and the other for field. What is a good voltage regulator to complete this set-up? The seller wasn't very specific about...

With my 36 jacked up I checked for wheel movement vertically by grabbing the top and bottom of the tire and trying to move it back and forth...very little movement. Then i grabbed the tire by the sides to check for movement...some, but not a whole lot, giving the sensation the maybe the lug nuts...

I do know he died a few years back. Did anyone take over the business? And how can I contact him? Tried the orig phone numbers to the business with no result. Terry

I want to change out my 36 ford 3 brush generator for a more modern 12v, 2 brush. It's my understanding that the 1959-64 Ford generators look the same and have the same diameter as my old one. How involved is this? I would like to keep the same pulley and fan arrangement as I have now. Are the...

My 36 has these holes just behind the windshield in each corner. They go down under the dash forming a nipple about 1'' long for attachment of a drain tube. I reamed them out so water can pass through. My question is, where do the tubes go that attach to the nipples?... Behind the kick panels...

My originals are shot and I'm thinking of going with the Pete& Jakes rear shock kit (with the newer tube shocks). Have any of you tried this kit ? And how does it work? This kit requires the welding the lower brackets to the axle housing.Terry

My V8 insignia is upside down. Can I loosen the retainer and just turn it 180 degrees or is more involved? The lights work fine, but when i turn the switch one left, the brites come on first. Turning more to the left, the lowbeams then come on. Is this the correct sequence? Maybe i should just...

My 36 sedan needs rear shock work. I'm thinking of the more modern shocks at this point. Could use some ideas on shock kits and how they have worked for any of you that have gone this route. Terry

it is getting harder to turn the key. I now keep it in the position that allows the lever to go from on to off. Is a worn key the problem or are the insides of the switch going bad? I have to shake the key back and forth while I try to turn it. Terry

A previous post mentioned a buzzer that could be attached to a turn signal flasher.. I'm confused as to where to attach the buzzer. My signal has three posts...X,L,andP. What do these letters stand for and which ones would have the buzzer leads attached to them? Terry

I have been thinking of attaching wiring to the speaker of a little transistor radio I have and attach these wires in turn to a speaker behind the header of my 36 ford. I would put the radio in the glove compartment. My question is, will radio noise still factor in or does this just happen when...
