    dot 3 or dot 5 good and the bad

    What is a good universal mechanical brake light switch to use? I was looking for one at the parts store and most of them were too model specific.

    Has anyone ever seen a dealer tag like this?

    While in SoCal for the GNRS we stopped by The Early Ford Store. Their patina '32 Roadster was rolled out on the sidewalk & it had a brass dealer tag on the firewall from Hollister. I don't recall the dealer name, but thought it unusual that it said "Ford Mercury". Must have been installed on the...

    1932 Sport Coupe special parts

    Sorry, this is the first I've heard of Jim's passing. He used to stop by the shop and we would swap '32 stories. It seemed he knew everybody that had a '32. Did they already have the estate sale?

    32 specifications?

    Isn't it interesting on the 'net that someone reads a post & comes to a different conclusion as to what you mean. When I went back & re read your post I realized you asked about a coupe & I had skipped over it. What is your & your buddies experience with metalshaping and what tools &...

    32 specifications?

    A lot of information on the HAMB. Deuce Daddy Don in Bend has blueprints for frames and roadster quarter panels. I haven't seen any other prints for other panels. Jerry Kugel had Marcel's build him some steel bodies. He bought a fiberglass body to modify to his specification, then Marcel's...

    32 ford roadster question

    If the car has no history or famous owners I think the channel would knock it down 30-50%. Gas Monkey Garage found a nice channeled 3 window. Went all out with a new frame, paint, interior, but didn't un-channel the car. Took it to an auction. He lost his ***. I have no doubt had they...

    Oregon has a form to fill out and a fee of $20 (if I remember right). They will research & tell you every time the tittle changed hands. Used to get the name of the owner,but because of privacy you only get the date & town.

    32 Ford Frame question

    It seems all of my '32's have had numbers problems. First one 40 years ago had a strange N CAL xxxx number on the title. It was a valid Oregon title, had no problem putting it in my name. Sandblasted the frame & found original Ford numbers. Had a police inspection and sent the paperwork into...

    Nameplate restoration

    What specifically is the part. If they repro it, that is probably the best deal. I'll presume you are asking about rechroming the part. For any given shop you will find customers that rave about them & customers that cuss them. Blow your afternoon & search here & the HAMB to see what others...
