With 3.54s you should be running close to 70 mph at 3000 rpm, with stock 600-16s.

New, matched 3.54 Ring & Pinion set. Bought in 2010 from Warren's Vintage Ford Parts and never installed. They are going for $350 new. If you are in the Lower 48, I'll send never used set to you for $250, leaving you some extra cash for other parts. email: cvance@vanceengineering.com ...

Don't know if they are the same, but its a pretty good bet. Try this: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1939-ford-pedal-assembly-bushings-whoda-thunk.478383/#post-5272607

I have patterns for 35-37 cab wood. I have heard that later wood mounts are similar, but its just what someone told me. I'll be happy to send them to you if you PM me your email address.

Yep.. seatbelts.

Wow. That's slick. You might consider adding the stainless spear to the running board. It would give it a really nice lower accent. I'm guessing it was an Argentinian delete.

AOD would be my choice. It would give you the best good drivability in town and a decent hwy gear. With 0.70 OD, you would be right around 2050 rpm at 65 mph with a 29" tire.

If cruising at 55 is good, then 3.78s should be good.... and there are plenty of good complete 3.78 rear ends around for pretty cheap. Much easier (and cheaper) to swap one out than to change the ring and pinion IMHO.

Tough call, but a Columbia would be a nice period correct piece, if cost is not a big deal.

A little off topic, but I sure do like your avatar pic 3738 :D.

Nice!!!!!!

No. The only way a 37 front will interchange is if you do the entire front clip.... fenders, grill, side panels and hood. Take a look in your pics, at the right front fender just above the headlight. You can see a swoop in the 37 fender that accepts the side panel. That makes the fenders...

No paint on mine.

It should have a pad to isolate and prevent squeaking.

Mart, really nice work, thanks for taking the time. I did not see where you sorted out the pedal bushings...... check out Dick's thread. if you don't have this size over there, send me a PM and I'll send you a couple. http://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3070&highlight=pedal+bushing

Ratios are correct, unless the R & P have been changed out. No clue on the G2

Nice!!

38 Std and Deluxe are really 2 different cars. I don't think that any of the sheet metal is the same. Std body is (I believe) same as '37. Deluxe body is same as '39. '38 deluxe and '39 std are very close. 39 std and dlxe have same body from cowl back.

If you buy speedway's buy their lug nuts too.
