36 Ford interior kits

[KiWinUS]

I have a 36 conv sedan,most of the original upholstery and a LB kit —- but no means of digital making of patterns, and there are differences between early and later body numbers in some details,I think the top boot has a bent rod retainer instead of snap posts across the top of the rear seat.
what body number/ production month do you have?

I to have a 36 CS. Trunk back. In very solid condition. Has original upholstery that is in bad shape covered with a metallic vinyl that is also in poor condition. Where is body number located and I will check mine.

An ecommerce company called Turn5 bought them. They have zero interest in any automobile from any decade prior to 1960's. Mustangs, Broncos, F100's, camero, square body chevys are their thing. It's a bunch of computer nerds between the ages of 21-45. Most of whom have never heard of a flathead ford engine. I'm 44 and I dislike these people and they are coloser to my age than most of the folks here. I wouldn't buy a bag of chips from their vending machine if I were starving.

Seth, I love your statement, you put into words how I felt when I first learned of their purchase.

 

[1936 cv sedan]

I am starting from scratch. I have a good front seat and new springs from Snyders. I have original fabric samples and pictures of patterns from Lebaron Bonney from years back. I am looking at ordering a new top from convertible top guys. The top I have has front and back wood header and 2 top irons. The 35/36 ford book shows the fabric patterns as well.

I put turn5 right there with the racoons that dig through my trash.

The body number is on the firewall in the engine compartment on the passenger’s side. — the picture is a late production car I saw at hershey,mine is shortly after trunk change.
I have made a few of the metal that covers the front bow.
