I just joined, I think. Was there another Briggs Leatherback group several years ago?

I have a OD-C1 with one of the mounting ears broken off. I purchased one of the reproduction bases from Bratton's. It was expensive. around $120. I was impressed how well it was made. The only thing I had to do it was use a Dremel to grind down around the outer edge a little so the cover fit...

I have the same motor and have looked for the arm and blade with no luck. Please keep us updated if you find a source.

Did you check for accommodations in Tooele or Salt Lake City, Utah? They are about 1.5 hrs east of Bonneville.

Has anyone installed a drum tail light on the right side of a 1928 Fordor? Mine has the tail light bracket that mounts to the rear skirt and not to the rear fender. I see that Snyder's has a right side Sedan/Touring bracket part number A-13473-AR. Does anyone know if this is the correct bracket...

I am looking for the same thing. Please report back if you find one. Thanks.

Has anyone heard about when the Smart Signals wireless turn signal lighting system will be available? I called them several times last year and he just kept saying they will be available soon. I signed up for the news letter to stay informed when they will be available but still no news. The web...

I am rebuilding a Zenith carb using the Tom Endy guide and I want to set the float level. I can't find a brass fitting at the local auto parts store or Home Depot that has the 1/2" 20 thread so I can make a test jig. All the brass fittings have a pipe size measurement which is very different...

28-29 hood shelves.

How did you contact him? Is he still in business?

I have tried calling and sending email as well. Maybe he has pulled the plug on his business. It's too bad, seems there there would be a good market for a good product. Perhaps he will sell it so someone that will take it serious.

Which Fordor are you talking about? If its a 1928 Leatherback Fordor I can help you out.

I am looking for a good working or restorable Owen-Dyneto Closed Car OD-C1A or B wiper motor for a 1928 Fordor Sedan.

I can't locate a OD-C1 wiper for my 1928 Leatherback so I would like to use another wiper moter I have. It is made by EA Lab but has a different shaft that the arm attaches to. I have looked at several web sites to identify what I have so I can locate an arm and blade but have had no luck. Can...

Re: Fordor pics Nice pictures, thanks for sharing. I am restoring a 1928 Leatherback.

Thanks for all your help!

Good information, thanks. I will look for the 2X, sounds like a great product. I dont like the regular rustoleum either, slow to dry, and most of the time I cant finish the can because the nozzle clogs. I have had much better luck with the Krylon.

The guy that did the body work on my car has a 1928 Tudor that he is hot rodding and he welded a roof section from a Dodge Caravan. I dont know what model year it was from. I can get a picture if you want.

Yes, afraid to post. I have been on the receiving end of some harsh comments. I like what SteveB31 said: Many, many great questions and great answers. Just a few sour apples spoil it for others.

I am about to install the top and headliner on a 1928 Fordor and wondered the same thing, which to do first. I found something on Youtube where they did the headliner first, pointing out that it is much easier to see what you are doing because the top is not on. They also took the floor pans out...
