    Ford 1936 history... How can I get information?

    Friends, Any idea whom I can contact at e.g. Ford to get info about my 1936 V8 Fordor? Engine and Chassis are matching with a 18 xxx number. Former US-owner does not reply. I'm in Germany. Every idea welcome. Bernd

    Dome light 1936 Fordor

    I looked it up but NO.... I assume that former owner put a new ceiling in and side panels and but did not reconnect the light or put the switch back in. Right between the B pillar and the ceiling I can feel something that seems to be a lose cable :-( Probably something to sort out later...

    Choke doesn't work :-(

    Ok, looked at my car and yes the screw does not sit on the throttle cam. If I got you right it has to, yes ? What confuses me most is that I have not had the problem yesterday and have no idea why it is misaligned or bend today. Bruce, thank you for the link, I'll do my best.

    Carpet for 1936 Fordor

    Hi All, I know that the 1936 was delivered with a rubber floor in the front. Nevertheless, real carpet looks nicer. Andy idea where I can buy a carpet front floor mat, or where I can find a dimensioned pattern (for download) ? Looked them up in Drake and Mac but couldn't find.... Happy Sunday.
