A post in the Vintage Thunderbird Club International's 1955-1957 Thunderbird forum has spurred me to try and determine if more than one glovebox door emblem for V-8-equipped 1957s and 1958 Ford full-size cars were used. A picture of a "Thunderbird Special" emblem with a T-bird "Vee-bird" and a...

Thanks for the good word-of-mouth. FWIW I know a lot of CTCI members are also on the VTCI Forum as well as being VTCI members. BTW I am one of the the administrator for the VTCI Forum and try to monitor it on a daily basis. I'll spare you the commercial on becoming a paying member-in-good...

Latch on back side of center 'tower' hooks into a chrome-plated footman's loop screwed into the floor behind the console stainless trim on top of the driveshaft tunnel. Two chrome-plated T-screws - one at each corner - at the rear into the header above the rear seat cushion screw into threaded...

64 Ford Galaxie or Fairlane by the face plate, but the frequency/band info sure isn't American. What is used down under?

Or, do what I did 40 years ago when I changed out the speedometer cable in my '55 Victoria - don't put the nuts back on and leave it loose in the dash. I drove it like that for a few years (including use as a daily driver for the the end of my senior year in college) and didn't have it fall out...

If any of you will be attending the joint CTCI-VTCI convention in Grapevine, TX this Tuesday-Saturday, please feel free to pull me aside and say hi. I'll be the guy running around wearing a beat-up red ballcap with a white 'N' on the front.

Just signed up to join the 52-59 social group - I was 'Yutan Flash' on the HAMB.

Summb*tch..no wonder I wasn't getting any notices the past few days. Thanks for moderating it, Jeff - being a quasi-moderator for VTCI's Forums I know it's a really thankless job when it runs smoothly.

Joe Buentic passed away earlier this year (March, I believe). I second Jeff's recommendation for contacting Drew at Air-Fuel-Spark, but be aware as often as he's out to sea, and with all the Facebook posts and emails he gets, he's very particular as to how he responds to inquiries. BTW I'm...

Seeking single C1AE 9510-AV secondary (outboard) carb to complete setup of '61-'63 FE Tripower. PM me with info. Located between Omaha-Lincoln Nebr.

From those of us who absorbed what Ol'Ron had to say but didn't have the opportunity to interact or say 'thanks' for sharing what he knew, condolences and prayers on his passing. From reading Ruth's posts, it reminds me of all the folks older than myself that have moved on in the nearly 50 years...

I've got a reproduction '40-style battery sitting on my workbench that I bought in 1980 but never filled with acid for my '40 tudor 'retirement' project (I bought a basket case when I was 19 in 1980, and am about 4 years from being able to 'officially' start on it). I much rather like the idea...

Aluminum or cast iron?

That one I don't know the answer to as I'm not in charge of managing the website, Forums or access to them. We did just install an update to the software on Friday, February 3rd: https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=20927 I can tell you that VTCI's home page has been...

Okay here's what I've found out from VTCI's Publications Director/website administrator earlier today. The website's home page and other pages for things such as new member and renewal info, Country Store, contacts, etc. are being revamped and cleaned up as I type this. The pull-down menus are...

If you're talking about the VTCI Forum, it's working for me, but I am seeing that the Club's home page is missing the pull-down menus right now. https://www.vintagethunderbirdclub.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16122 I haven't notice any problems yesterday or today with the Forum pages. It's...

Flatrod: got your pm from Monday and responded with address. Gerald: Are you trying to find a home for the 64-72 truck MPC? I am interested in the set.

Flatrod: PM sent.

I don't know if the microfiche viewer I have for Sherwin-Williams paint microfiches would work but I'm guessing they're similar size. Might be worth a gamble to try and see if they work?
