    What windshield do I have?

    Yes, that is what it is. I've come to this conclusion after Brian hinted 35-36 Mopar which it is as it measures roughly 107 x 33 cm. I bought this off a seller that sells vintage Ford stuff on eBay regularly and this lead me to think that he knows his stuff. Well, obviously this wasn't the case.

    What windshield do I have?

    Thanks guys for your insight :) Pattern number I don't see anywhere on the frame but at the bottom of the rail where the glass and seal sit there was a stamping which I think reads A.M.CO. Does this give anyone any clues? I'm just hoping to recoup even a fraction of what I lost (it was not...

    What windshield do I have?

    Could someone knowledgeable tell me what the heck this is :confused: The inside frame I bought from eBay where it was advertised as "35/36 Coupe Sedan". Now that I've worked all weekend on it to separate the halves (yes, it took me all weekend!) and clean it, I took out for comparison the...

    1933-1934 5 w coupe Ford garnish mouldings

    A very rare opportunity to acquire a full set of five original 1933-1934 Ford 5 window coupe garnish mouldings. Upholstered in black suede, originally chrome finish which is now flaky in places. I have taken the suede off one of the mouldings to show what lies beneath. I have not thoroughly...

    1936 rear window seal

    I'm looking for a rear window lower seal for a 1936 3 window coupe. The car has a wind-down window which functions as it should. It had no seal at all but should there be? Or is it intended that the water is allowed to get in but is then routed out? :confused: I've not had a look behind the...

    34 Cabriolet top iron; bent or not

    Sorry Graham but I no longer have my Cabriolet so I can't measure anything from it. Perhaps there's someone here that has a Cabriolet and could quote you the length of the bow?

    34 Cabriolet top iron; bent or not

    That makes perfect sense; the padding is really heavy and would certainly not fit without the bend. My friend is very IT challenged so I doubt whether I'd get another photo off him but I feel that this has solved the issue. Thank you :)

    34 Cabriolet top iron; bent or not

    I'm asking for a friend who's putting together a 1934 Ford Cabriolet. I used to own one a few years back but I have no recollection of how this top bow looked and my friend is now wondering should this iron be straight or does it have this bend as shown in pic? It's at both ends which has me...

    1934 Ford 5 w coupe garnish mouldings set

    A full set of garnish mouldings off of a 1934 Ford 5 window coupe. These are virtually never sold as full sets so go and grab yourself a bargain here. All five pieces have a chrome plated surface. I have taken the faux suede covering off from one of them to show the condition of the chrome...

    1934 ford windshield header panel

    SAR panel is blank without any holes. I was lucky to source one so I'm not complaining. :) I have a Sedan Delivery and that's the first of my '34s to have had a header panel (in all others it had been removed prior to my ownership) and it's covered with headlining material but I didn't know if...

    1934 ford windshield header panel

    I'm sort of hijacking this thread because my question concerns a SAR header panel. I had mine delivered recently but before strating installation I'd like to know (and see pics) how it's installed. Would it originally have had brackets? Or does it simply screw onto the roof structure/wood...

    4 Years, finished the '34 Three Window

    That's a stunner. I see that you've used a luggage rack at the rear. Could you or someone please post pics on how and where you attach it on the car? I have short bumper braces so would those interfere in assembling a luggage rack?

    34 roadster luggage rack

    I'm not intending to hijack this thread but could someone please explain or show a photo of how exactly does the rack bolt on (?) to the car? Is it a bolt-on application or are you required to drill holes to make it fit? For example I have a Cabriolet which has short bumper braces - would this...

    34 Cabriolet; how was it in 1934?

    Greetings from Finland - literally a world away from other '34 Cabriolets ;) The Phaeton/Roadster wing nuts fit although they need to be shortened. No big fuss and they do the job. The car's now finished and although I know that some of you will be raising eyebrows after seeing its pic this is...

    34 Cabriolet; how was it in 1934?

    The Cabriolet's slowly coming together and a new top was fitted last week. I seem to have permanently misplaced the wing nuts that hold the top down on top of the windshield frame/A pillars. Would this be an item that is no longer available? At least I can't find it in (web)catalogues...

    MAC's Auto Parts.

    This is turning out to be a great thread with so many tips on new (at least new to me) vendor names and websites. Living across the pond makes ordering and waiting for the parts to arrive seem like a lifetime, and I'm soooooo ready to use someone else rather than Mac's. Past experiences: I...

    Bob Drake - Worth the Wait!

    Has anyone received a reply from Bob Drake's recently? I was trying to place an order with them on the Net, ended up on "a server error page", reported it to them telling them that I was about to place a substancial order which nowadays I think any trader would find an interesting proposal...
