What's the ID on both ends for a '47? 1 3/4"?

Thanks for the tips. Especially like the long bolt with the head cutoff to ease installation. Fingers crossed it'll go somewhat smoothly.

Need to install new water pumps. One is starting to leak. I know that there's a bolt inside the water outlet. I'm looking at how short the lower hoses are and it doesn't look like it's going to be an easy job with the radiator still in place. Can it be done without much disassembly?

Thanks, I'll make some calls

I have an old Walker radiator for a 34. Bought it used several years ago and it's been sitting in storage. Looking for a shop to test it and repair if needed. Thanks

These are the two that are running. The 47 Fordor I picked up about a year ago, body-off restoration with Columbia Rear. The 32 Roadster has been in the family since 1958.

Thanks Joe, I'll check the boards I have to see the thickness. Hopefully they'll work.

Appreciate the help.

I've searched the web looking for info that shows the dimensions for the bed wood with no luck. I have some mahogany boards that I would like to use but need to know what the profile of the cuts look like and width and length measurements. Thanks

Thanks to all for the suggestions. I'll try some. Curious on the shoe polish as someone had told me about that but the 32 boards have a "rough" design that I would think would trap a lot of it. 33-40 boards with just long rows would be okay probably.

I have a set of original boards in very good shape on my roadster. What's the best dressing to make them look a little better but not turn them brown?

I'm pretty sure this is a repo handle assembly. It has been tight to turn as long as I've had the car (it was unlocked). The other day the handle popped off as I was trying to open the trunk. Any idea how the handle is attached? Don't see any obvious breakage. Is it just a pressed fit. Is the...

Is there any adjustments in the pivots for these windows? One side of mine is high on the rear side. Adjusting the top or bottom pivot would help to drop it down which would allow it to function better.

Thanks for the info

Was told there's an early and late. I have a couple that have differences on the driver's side.

Read through the Vern Tardel Brake book and it appears that all the drums are interchangeable.

My 47 Sedan needs a new rear drum. It has the outer hubs but I have a good set of drums with the inner hub. Are these by chance interchangeable?

Thanks for the clarification

Then I guess I'm not fully understanding the polarity issue which is why I asked the question. I understand the '47 is positive ground. If it's being jumped by another vehicle with a 12-volt negative ground, how are the cables attached. Is it positive to positive or swapped?

I posted this on the 12-volt conversion thread but thought this might be better. As someone that just picked up a restored '47 Sedan that is still 6-volt, my concern was jump starting if away from home (can't always park on an incline). What's the proper procedure with the positive ground...
