Not real keen on the idea of attempting to drill and tap the steering wheel to allow use of a modern puller, but I guess I'll see what it looks like after I get the horn switch and rod out of the column. I guess I'll be on the lookout for a proper tool for the future. The car is indeed a...

That's a Whatchamacallit Flange for a Youzadriveit. I think you're missing a photo in your post.

What's the process for getting the steering wheel off of a stock '33/34 column? Obviously, the horn button assembly needs to come out, but is that as simple as disconnecting the wiring at the bottom and then pulling from the inside? Does the column need to be dropped so the rod can clear the...

The sleeve is not a separate item. It is an assembly with the stud and bushing. Third Gen Auto has what you are looking for. Front: https://thirdgenauto.com/product/1932-34-ford-front-lower-spring-shackle-stud-fits-in-leaf-spring/ Rear...

$705 for a 8BA block? Yikes.

I'm sure there are those of us that would do the first, but have decided to settle for the latter given the ever decreasing availability and increasing cost of useable parts (both OE and reproduction) and correctness the available reproduction pieces. That may inadvertently result in more owner...

My mistake. I must have gotten confused by some of the other posts. Does Rich's post help at all? Dennis may have some more of the '35 kit on his Instagram if you go back further in time.

How fast do you need it?

I must be one of the lucky ones who's been able to get a hold of Dennis via Instagram. I'd think one should be able to piece together how the kit is assembled from the various photos of it that've been posted on his account since it supposedly only bolts into existing holes...

I'm in the same boat, unfortunately - in need of either OEM or aftermarket pieces.

Yep, the Drake tank is more correct in the stamping elsewhere on the tank, too. Not really a big deal if you aren't concerned about visible authenticity, though. Drake: https://bobdrake.com/products/1933-34-victoria-1933-37-pckp-gas-tank?_pos=1&_sid=3a1367dd8&_ss=r Tanks Inc...

That only applies to the Model T and A. The later years placed the tank elsewhere. The V8 era cars aren't gravity feed; they rely on a mechanical fuel pump that's mounted at the rear of the intake manifold to suck fuel out of the tank. You won't get any sort of gravity feed action with the...

Thanks. I should have searched first.

Can anyone provide some photos and dimensions/sketches of the following two pieces for the forward floor board on the '33-34 passenger cars? Metal plate that gets nailed to the exterior side of the wooden floorboard above the notch / below the pedals. In the manual this is the piece next to...

Looking for a 1933 passenger car radiator cap. Can be a nicer quality reproduction or an original, but needs to be in good shape and not pitted or in need of replating.

There are a few threads on the HAMB that discuss how to set up dual 94s. One fella who has fairly detailed instructions doesn't recommend plugging the power valves. Here's one of the threads: https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/dual-94-carbs-on-a-flatty-setup-questions.36751/

It seems like the quality and fitment of Howell's parts can really vary. It'd be nice if they indicated which are ones they produce and for which they are merely resellers. That might give some insight into whether a part is likely to fit or only be fit for a scrap bin.

This thread is a couple of weeks old now, but I can state that attempting to set up a new multi-vehicle policy with Grundy has been a pain in the ***. Between their barely functional website and continued asking for additional information when the documentation provided has already met the...

Aren't the rumble seat cars supposed to have a cloth circular cover over the rear axle rather than a steel cover? It appears both these cars have steel covers.

Consolidated Freightways is now Con-Way through a convoluted set of splits and spin-offs. A separate company not under the YRC umbrella.
