Thanks for the ideas.

I would like to replace my original fuel line on my 1955 Crown Victoria. It is my understanding that to replace with an original, this must be done with the body lifted off the frame. I am hoping to accomplish without this extreme effort. What have you done to upgrade your fuel lines without...

‘55 Crown Victoria rear seat mounts my questions Friends, I am trying to fit the bare seat springs in my ‘55 Crown Victoria in preparation for upholstery to be put on them. Hoping to get all good prior to upholstery shop starting work. I’m not sure what holds the rear bench and backrests in...

Thank you. Helps a bunch. My car came in pieces and buckets and I don’t have the J channels. I will either have to locate some or else think a bit outside the box.

Working to install front seat side cowl kick panels from an upholstery kit in our 1955 Crown Victoria. Can anyone tell me how yours are secured in place in your ‘55-‘56 Ford? I see no clips other than for holding the wind lace. I see no screw holes in the side under the left and right cowl...
