1941 was the first G series engine use. Mid year, the pickup received it but it did have a new front cross member. 1941 V8s had the crank mounted fan so they needed room in front. The G series 6-cylinders should have all had the same basic engine mounts but they are different than the V8. The G...

In late 1927, ALL parts were As Released so they needed no designation till the first revised parts that wouldn't interchange came along.

If you can find some cribbing, ie, wood blocks, concrete blocks, etc., you can just use a single jack and slowly block the body up but the front fenders will either have to be supported or removed. You might get by on the rear by just loosening them. How high you go depends on disconnecting all...

The green bible has info about the early two speed rear axles, Ford started to offer the 2-speed in 1938. I think Eaton or Eaton/Ruckstell made them but I'm not sure. They were operated with a lever and linkage rod set up. A later type came out for 1940. The parts book lists them for all but the...

It looks pretty close to the real thing. Here's a link. https://www.ebay.com/p/1023015446 The 11" clutch wouldn't fit through the hole so Ford made these for trucks.

I, attaching a link to the Ford of Canada serial number info that I generally go to for questions. https://www.wnyrg3.org/CANADIAN-SERIAL-S It indicates that the V8 got a later start so production was low. V8 production was delayed for a long time in the USA 1932 production as well. Canada had...

The owners manuals all gave information about changing the points sets and minor adjustments, The 2-bolt distributors are all the same basic design but they either have the crab cap or the rabbit ear cap. The distributor as a whole needs to have everything cleaned and checked. Many folks don't...

Switching the ground side is always the safest bet.

I would get some Turtle Wax white light duty polishing compound. I've used it for years on the helicopter finishes and plexiglass windows. It's like jewlers rouge. It works on acrylic urethane pretty well. Just try to lightly swirl your new clean soft cloth as you polish then buff with a very...

All I can suggest is check out the Jamestown Distributors on line catalog. The specialize in many products for the care and upkeep of watercraft. They have wood restoration products but I don't know how well they all work.

On the right front frame rail, on the top of the rail in the door frame area. They started in late 1925 in preparation of the 1926 models.

On the one that was built for a 35 Coupe to run the GAR. They bored all eight cylinders pretty much out of the block to put sleeves in by leaving a step at the bottom and using epoxy to install the 3-3/16" sleeves. An original 255 Mercury 4-inch crank was modified quite a bit to get it in there...

Ford went by his engineer's recommendations on manufacturing. The one type was used throughout production as far as I know. They had Able drives and Bendix in two variations. Those old designs had to release as well as engage so the little gear and weak spring needed all the help it could get...

Any search now days is going to have AI. They generally have little foot notes next to answers. Check those links to try and get more information about where the ai looked. Look at links for context and origin. If you Know it's reputable, then you have some indication of authenticity. If you...

Ford had radio antenna connections in some cars to the wire netting that is installed over the bows. A heavy cloth is stretched over so padding can be laid down then the topping material goes over that. A trim piece is installed around the edge to hide the nails. I don't know if there are any...

The oil pump drive in another thing, Some later ones will but most don't. They changed from a slot & tang drive to a more modern hex shaft type drive. Folks change the oil pump if they want the late type drive and distributor. The cam can be involved if a person wants the late gear on the...

For cars that had wood bases for the springs, there are some reproductions. Snyder's Antique Auto Parts got there start by making decent quality reproduction seat springs if you need those. The two main companies that used to make kits for the early Fords after the model A era are no longer in...

You might check over on the model T club site. Them that don't ask, don't get. Chances are slim but not totally impossible. Many old model Ts are still around.

The truck stuff works but the clutch may be the big 11-inch "Long" type. Some folks use them but others don't like the spring pressure which makes the pedal push a little on the heavy side. The 9" and 10 " Long clutches were used on the lighter passenger cars of the 30s and 40s and light...

I checked on the Classtique site on the side curtain description for pickups and it states that the upper weather flap attaches to the forward rail of the top irons on the inside edge. This is a general statement but may be accurate for all of the roadsters too. It sort of makes sense due to...
