A business coupe and a club coupe are pretty much the same car. The club coupe will have quarter windows that open up and a back seat. My father has a '51 business coupe with a V8 that he bought from the original owner. The guy was a WW2 vet and very frugal so he waited until '52 to buy the...

Hopefully you don't mind me asking but.....why so many tractors????

Is the '49 steering wheel a bit bigger in diameter than the '36 steering wheel?

Looks like a really nice start to an easy project! Everybody likes coupes but...once you start looking at the practicality of a sedan and then compare them to the cars everybody else has these days an old Ford sedan starts looking pretty cool! I noticed somebody advised to tear the rebuilt...

Looking for 1953-1955 F100 steering box. Would consider a 1956 box as well.

Looking for a decent pair of 1932 cabriolet doors. Even one door is a start. I'm resurrecting '32 cabriolet that matches the condition of the Titanic. I have all of the main body including doors but the bottom 6-8 inches of the car needs replacing including the body subframe. I would be...

Looks like everybodys resolutions for the most part revolve around driving their As more and finishing projects. The most amusing resolution posted was to resolve to never again agree to assemble an A that somebody else had taken apart! I have never bought an old Ford that came home in one...

If I did not have the offer of a free radius rod I would definately straighten it. I might try to straighten it cold in a press but if it looks like it is going to collapse or kink I would heat it. You may have to heat it and bend it back one little section at a time to get it right. With...

I always used to think of the 48-52 F1 trucks as potato bug trucks and I figured they were at the bottom of the barrel as far as vintage ford Trucks go. I also thought the 44-47 Jail bar truck was even lower on the totem pole but at least the jail bar truck had a '40 type cab, bed and back...

Fire damage did not look too bad. When I first saw the post I was expecting something that had been totally roasted in a garage fire! Nice to see it being returned to it's former glory rather than using the fire as an excuse to put an LS1 into it.

As an elementary school kid I remember going to Antique Automotive in San Diego with my father and seeing their showroom with cars for sale and somehow the Model Ts were the first old cars that caught my imagination. I have a '27 T sedan body that will be my someday hot rod and I plan to keep...

I tend the view the tall Ts as great hot rod material but I always believe they look best when the body's are left stock meaning not chopped or channeled. I'm 6"1' and I tried to sit in a chopped and channeled '27 coupe. Even though the seat was on the floor my head was mashed into the...

I'm having the same problem too. Every time I see something for sale I can't respond because I have few posts. Perhaps this post will get me closer to the magic number required to allow me to participate.

I'm looking for a '53-55 F100 steering box. If anybody has one for sale or can point me in the direction of one for sale it will be appreciated. Currently my only sources other than the HAMB and ebay are the HAMB and the Ford Barn.

Does anybody have any photos of a stock floor for a 1934 pickup? I've seen the steel toe boards and the wood floor boards but I have yet to see any steel trans covers. There seems to be reproductions of the trans covers available for all of the cars but I have yet to see any for the pickups...

If the tires don't show any signs of dry rotting and you are just doing low speed local driving and don't need to get into high speed heavy traffic freeway situations I would not worry about it. On the other hand I know one can't always plan the route they are taking or the speed they will be...

Can anybody point me to photos of the correct toe board for a 1934 pickup? I am piecing together a mostly stock '34 pickup and I don't have a toe board and don't know what the correct toe board should look like. Any help appreciated!

I worked at a machine shop that did machining on anything that came in the door from flatheads to failed engines from cars that were so new that crate engines were not even available to the dealer yet. Once and a while a customer would come in with a good block that was missing caps and if it...

I need all quarter window garnish pieces and rear window garnish for a '26- 27 T tudor. Need some door garnish as well. Please PM me. Tim Rush San Diego
