Bob Drake and his first assembled '40 Coupe will be at the SEMA show in Vegas Nov. 1-4.

You can view or download Bob Drake's current catalog here; http://www.bobdrake.com/CAT26/CAT26.html While they're reprinting more hard copies, you can use this online Adobe pdf version. Further; when they have the catalogs available, Bob Drake's shipping dept. does not automatically send a free...

If you haven't seen Drake's floor pans, then how can you logically say that Paul's are "Best on the market"? I've used both Paul's and Drake's and you need to check out Drake's too. I think you'd declare a new "Best on the Market" award. Drake simply makes a better floor pan system for '39-40...

Four years ago I used all of Paul Bradley's pans in my '39 coupe and have since just finished installing Bob Drake’s pans in my ’40 coupe. Bradley’s required 5 times the labor to install, while Drake’s came as complete, larger sections matching the original factory seam locations. Unlike...

Hit some swap meets and car shows with your camera. Plenty of done '40s out there with enthusiast owners willing to let you peak in and under their cars and help you every step. If you're wanting to build a real nice '40, I'd at least check out Drake's new body unless you want to spend tons of...

Okie; you are most welcome. Ken: It's nice to see knowledgeable, helpful people like you involved here. May you continue your good, honest guidance to others.

Okie: My apology to you. The window regulator pictured in Drake's new products announcement on the web is actually a '40 closed car unit, simply used prior to the actual production '40 convertible units were in stock and could be photographed. Drake's '40 conv. regulators are identical to...

As far as your window glass channels using rubber bumpers vs. felt strips; keep in mind these cars have been around a while and many have had doors replaced, etc., and I've even seen cars having both styles of doors, in which going with the felt strips is the wise choice in my opinion. Look...

I suggest you contact Bob Drake's and see if they have a new but slightly damaged '40 coupe deck lid at perhaps a much lower price. You might be pleasantly surprised.
