Need to replace a cracked door glass on my '55 Ford. I have the tool for removing the inside door handle and window crank, but it's not getting them off, I know the tool goes 180 degrees from the way the handle/crank points. I removed many of them when I worked in a body shop in high school...

You have good taste in cars and women.

Thanks! Exactly what I needed.

Need a photo of the brace that goes between the center of the fronint splash pan and the tab on the front cross member. If someone has an original '55 Ford that has never been wrecked in front.😞There is a tab on the center of the front crossmember with a bolt hole, and it looks like there should...

Those pictures are perfect. That's what I needed. Thanks! My email is 38fordpickup@gmail.com.

Can someone with a '55-'56 Ford V8 2 barrel carb and 3 on the tree take a picture of your car's throttle linkage and return springs showing the bellcrank and linkage from the arm on the firewall to the bellcrank?

I have a distributor from a '57 Merc 312 with new points, condensor, cap, and rotor ready to go. Do I need to change the carburetor to run it on my '55 272?

I found them, Casco Thunderbird had them.

Does anybody know where I can get the clamps (4 of them per car) that hold the speedometer/gauge cluster assembly to the dash on '55 Ford cars. Or does anybody have some on a parts car?

Thank you!

Back side of '55 Ford fuel gauge. Car converted to 12V with aftermarket wiring harness. I have the voltage reducer to put on the gauge but need to know which terminal is the power feed and which terminal is for the wire to the sending unit. Need to know to install the reducer on the correct...

Old fuel pump diaphragms and today's ethanol gas do not get along well together.

Glad to know he is still with us. His late brother Felix was chairman of the pastor search committee when I became pastor of Woolford Memorial Baptist Church in Baltimore in '89.

He's in his 90s if he is. Haven't seen any posts from him in a while. Good guy. Bought a NOS '38-'39 big truck radiator from him to use in my '38 pickup.

Yes, those four nuts hold 4 clamping pieces. Remove those, and the speedometer and gauge cluster assembly lifts out easily. You will find the job much easier if you have a universal joint beween your wrist and your elbow.

I changed the distributor on my '55 272 and used a '57 and later distributor. How do I read the timing marks as there are no numbers ? I'm assuming the first mark would be 0 degrees. Shop manual calls for 3 degrees advance with manual transmission.

Never saw a '55 Ford car with an aftermarket add-on turn signal unit. I would have thought that all states would have required turn signals on cars by '55. I know some trucks as late as '55 came with a single taillight and no turn signals from factory. I used to have a second series '55 Chevy...

It sounds like from the description that he has a '35-'36 or possibly a '37 tailgate. Beds up through '41 were 46" inside width. '42 and later beds were 3" wider. They started making them wider because more building materials were being produced in 4' x 8' sheets. A sheet of plywood or...

If I remember right, the '54-56 cop cars had Merc engines and the rear end that was used on station wagons, sedan deliveries, and Tbirds.

On its way to you.
