Gary Does the rope still come up though the floor at Marine Hardware? And how about that great wood stove in the back of the store? Do you remember my 40 coupe and 3 or 4 Model A's that came to your place for a visit? Gary

Re: Another turn signal question...need advice from electrical guru - Part 2 If you use Novita listed above your lights will flash the proper interval and you can have 1-6 bulb in play. I use these flashers on jobs and have had good luck with them.

Pete I remember that car in Magnolia. That is Harry Walrath. I think he lived on Perkins Lane. I was about 12 years old with.eye's as big as diner plates. Did Al Cooper have anything to do with that engine? Gary

JT I sent you a PM. Gary

jukenut 16 Check page 177 & 179 in the 38-40 service bulletin's. You may have wrong width synchro sleeve. They changed the width of the large gear on the cluster. As a result the sleeve rubs on that gear when in high gear...

All of the blocks that I rebuild with those plugs, get drilled and tapped for 1/2 pipe thread. I remove the center main studs or bolts and drill with magnetic mount drill. After drilling chuck up a large center drill to start the tap. Use flush pipe plugs and 565 Loctite to finish the job...

Is anyone familiar with the remote solenoid used 49-51 converts and wagons with overdrive. It has a bell crank affair that relocates the solenoid under the transmission, out of the way of the X member. I am trying to find the tin cover that keeps the dirt and water off the bell crank etc...

fredv I have been following your problem here. From one of the photo's I can see that the snap rings are missing that locate the shifting sleeve on the sun gear. This would allow the sleeve to slide with the shift fork and not bring the sun gear with it. Overdrive needs to come apart...

Joe Twelve rotors arrived today in fine shape. I fit one up on a distributor, and the rotor is a perfect fit. You are to be commended for the considerable effort you put in to pull this off. No question, this is the real deal. Anybody that buys one of these will be most happy with it. Thank you...

Group Any body know part number, or have info on field coils used on generator with bulbous case from about 1937. The case was made to take large coils so it would charge at low speeds. I think the # might be 79-10000A, but not sure. Any info would be welcome, as I have one here to...

I do the Harman Collins dual coil here in Seattle. If whomever is going to do this, I would be interested if they make both the rotor and the inner cap. I would like to see the inner cap made without the primary connections as part of the inner cap. They are a major source of high tension...

Auto Stud Spring broke on one set of points causing a dead short. Happens quite often. Gary

continental1940 When I do a dual coil Zephyr, I unsolder mount tab from the original cap and resolder it to a Napa FA49 that fits 36-41. Works great. Gary

Ken----Replace with NOS Ford switch plate and brush. Fits 32 thru 37. The remakes are warped junk. I just fixed a 37 that failed on the way home from Tahoe meet. Check the resistance when you are done installing new parts, before you connect wires. Should be .1 ohm or less...

Joe That main bearing was made by Ford for heavy clutch use in busses etc. It provided additional lube oil to the rear thrust face. The part number was 81B-6331-whatever undersize letter. The ones I have seen from Ford had a hand scraped area were yours had the groove cut. Also no lube notchs...

40cpe---Thanks for the tip on Ron Lambert. Ordered 6 volt tail lights for my 40 coupe this morning. Did not think I would ever find someone willing to do 6 volt positive ground. Doing a round trip from Seattle to Yellowstone Park in June, and it will be nice to be seen...
