    1954 Mercury Sun Valley

    While I cannot answer your question about other faux Sun Valleys, I do know that Mercury Sun Valleys were produced in 1954 and 1955 only. 54's were on the Monterey platform and 55's on the Montclair. Authentic '54 Sun Valleys were either yellow or mint green with a dark green hardtop. Not sure...

    Glove Box Door V-8 Emblems - 1957 and 1958 Fords

    Discussed in pretty good depth in this thread: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=350518 My post there shows all the glovebox emblems originally intended for 57 Fords. The idea was abandoned early on, with the result that only '57 cars assembled by October of 1956 wound up getting...

    39 Ford Exhaust Challenge

    I suspect they would cut the front pipe about 3" below the crossover stub, connect to exhaust manifold and crossover pipe, and then butt weld the pipe back together under the car.

    Tips On Installing Stock Exhaust Pipes

    I am facing this same challenge now with my '39 Coupe trying to get the front pipe flange and crossover stub into position. I removed the rubber frame bumper, but am not sure what you mean by "letting the front axle hang." Exactly how did you accomplish that?

    3D Printed Ford Battery Case Help

    I marvel at the work done by Warbird here. Not to hijack his thread, but are the correct "DO NOT REMOVE" vent caps available anywhere? The BCM repro LF battery for my '39 Standard came with the incorrect Ford script caps.
