As shown in the attached wiring instructions, the heater is connected to the fuse block in the firewall for power. A relay would be a good option if you want to have it switched from the ignition switch. The heater will draw too much current through the Ign. Switch and cause premature failure.

They look a lot like the doors on my old '46 Panel delivery.

I have found many used senders in the past that can be made to work properly with a little effort, i.e. cleaning the points, recalibrating them, and swapping the float arm as necessary. It's easy to fit a 1960's ford gauge regulator in series with the gauges for the 12V conversion, but I always...

Does it look like this?

I have several of the Magnavox Illustravox versions from the '30's - '40's and have just bought one the same as yours from an eBay seller, but it is missing the power lead. I'm hoping to source a replacement lead of connector so that I can get mine operational so that I can convert the Ford...

Pyroxylin can't be found, I looked for my '42 Sedan Delivery seat covers. Apparently it was highly flammable so too dangerous to store or use nowadays. :P

Do you mean the one that is for the later 8BA style distributor or the the one for earlier two and three bolt distributors?

Thanks Kube, here is what i found by researching Pyroxylin: What Pyroxylin Fabric Was Pyroxylin fabric = cotton or linen coated with cellulose nitrate (pyroxylin). Used historically for: Vintage luggage Early automotive interiors Bookbinding Military gear Early waterproof fabrics It was...

In reference to the above pictures in my previous post, can anybody suggest what the seat covering fabric might be called and also maybe know of a source for a similar fabric. It seems to be almost like a kind of coated fabric, like a thin canvas. Certainly nothing like Naugahyde or Vinyl...

Here are some photos of what I believe to be '42 - '47 panel delivery front seats with the mounting brackets and seat track for the drivers side. These have been purchased for my Sedan Delivery as genuine SD seats are made of unobtainium. The drivers (LH) seat has the sliding track for...

What a fantastic job! Well done :)

If you're coming back up to the north of the south Island, be sure to get in touch. I would be happy to show you around :)

Wanted 1942 Ford crank handle support bracket part # 21A-8210 as per the attached pictures.

Here's a picture of what I believe to be the correct cable style, and it should measure 77 & 3/4" according to the chassis parts manual. The regular non-convertible cable measures 103" according to Dennis Carpenters catalogue.

Even a lead to find a used one that I could use to copy, or if someone has the dimensions that might help too :)

I am trying to find a replacement 1951 Convertible, front parking/emergency brake cable, or an old one that I could use as a pattern to get a new one made. Any help or suggestions very much appreciated. :)

I'm trying to source a front parking brake cable for a 1951 Ford Convertible. I see that many of the suppliers only list a front cable for non convertible cars. Does anybody know of a source for the correct cable for a convertible? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I Know a guy here in New Zealand that was reproducing the mirrors for these clocks, and he may still have some available. Let me know and I can ask him for you. :)
