Re: NEW products available thread
 

Those dual temp clips were selling for crazy prices. Great item Michael !

In addition to my "Trash Can" condensers, I have available an electronic device that allows just about any current 12 volt negative ground tachometer to be run on a 6 volt positive ground vehicle. It is simple to install and connect and will drive just about any tachometer from a $10 "swap meet special" to a $600 Autometer with memory and playback. These have been extensively tested and have proved accurate and reliable. They have sophisticated circuitry to "clean up" the power anomalies present in vintage vehicle electrical systems. In comes with a comprehensive instruction and installation manual.

Here is a link to a short video of the device in action : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaxpuDkWAqc.

Here are pictures on the device mounted on the firewall of my 1951 Ford Club Coupe and a picture of the Sun-Pro tachometer head I have mounted on the steering column. The third picture is of a high-end "Mooneyes" tachometer in a '49 Plymouth using the same device.

They are available to board members at $125 plus $8 domestic shipping.You can PM me here or email me at [email protected] if interested.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Some pretty cool stuff here - well done!

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Just got a photo from Tom Bay, R&J Enterprises of his new stock firewall for 1933-34.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

A must read for Tom Bay. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=272772

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I think this link to off set crankshaft grinding would be helpful.

A friend had a very very bad experience with Tom Bay.

Re: NEW products available thread

Re-lining and re-furbishing BRAKE DRUM service! How many of you guys have brake drums that have been turned way past the legal (and practical) 0.060" oversize? New FORD drums dried-up long ago, and GOOD, useable drums are very rare IF you do come upon them. I know that I (like a lot of you) have at least a dozen worn-out hub/drum assemblies layin' in a corner that are far beyond any realistic use. Well now there's a service in Illinois that will re-line and refurbish (make look like new) just about any kind of brake drum you can come up with, including the aluminum Buick and Pontiac units. J&G BRAKE DRUM RELINING AND REFURBISHING is the name of this most valuable service.


I almost forgot to mention that these guys also arc brake shoes!! Click the link below! DD

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I wonder if they could reline 33 rear drums?

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I'll bet that's why they included their phone number on their web site. I'd also bet that if you call that number ( (815) 276-2578 ), they would likely tell you "yes"...or "no"! I can't imagine why they couldn't, though. Ain't nothin' that special about a '33 rear drum. Click on THIS link below for pictures of some of the REALLY weird drums they've redone. DD

Re: NEW products available thread
 

From the photos on the site, it looks like they specialize putting new steel liners in aluminum drums. Steel drums are a whole different kettle of fish. You better check. Report back what you find out.

Even if they do, I expect it to be an expensive process. Eight lug Pontiacs are something special.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Just got off the phone with this folks, very nice, by the way. Yes, they do reline cast iron 33 ford drums, around $325 to $350 per drum, back to new specs. They also offer shoe arching and rivet/bonded shoes. 4 to 5 week turnaround as of right now.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

The new 1932 Ford steering wheels mentioned in post #1 are finally here.. They are $379.00

If you are a Early Ford V-8 Club member, the price will be $340.00

Re: NEW products available thread
 

That’s great news. Thanks!

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I have a customer looking for an antenna hole plug in the windshield center dowel for a 1939 Convertible. This is different than the closed car that Carpenter makes. Ford show part# 91A-7403456 for 1939 and 1940. I have never seen one.


Regardless, I made a 3D printed (pla plastic) version of what I thought the plug might look like. If anyone has one, or seen one, did I get it close? Also what color should it be?

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Some members have reported not seeing the pix, so I am reposting as an attachment.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Here ya go Karl...

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Karl, It appears your customer is doing his best to properly restore his convertible. That being the case, you may want to share with him the fact that the center (interior) windshield molding had NO hole in the top if the car was not equipped with a radio.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Just received my steering wheels today, lightning quick shipping to Canada. The wheels are awesome! Thanks Michael.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I'd like to see the stainless top latches for a '40 convertible come back. I'm fortunate to have pieced together a very nice set, but I still think they are fragile and wish I had the stainless pieces.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

We still make them (and have for many years) in silicone bronze, here in Oregon USA, chrome plated.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Anyone that hasn't had a chance to thumb through Karl Wescott's (Wescott restyling)'s offerings is really missing out. Many attach the name Wescott with the best Fiberglass products available, and while true It's amazing the other hard to find items he offers that restorers hunt for.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I do have his wooden header on my '40, fit nice.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I make stainless windshields for 37-39 Ford cars and trucks. Also Barrel nose bonnet hinges, stainless Jail Bar bumpers etc. However, I'm in New Zealand....

Re: NEW products available thread
 

This week I had a itch to have some 35/36 car and 35-39 pickup headlamp nuts made. They are exact as original awaiting plating. Odd size that’s unavailable these days. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d919018893.jpg

Re: NEW products available thread
 

I'm sure that you meant to put one in the photo alongside the original shown.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

For comparative measure... the 11/16” split lock washers were a bear to source to include with them.

Dumb me; sorry. Of course you were referring to the nuts and not the bolts.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Dave, Are you loosing your eyesight or just going nuts?

Re: NEW products available thread
 

While not V8 its close. 1931 Deluxe Roadster stock height top irons. Laser cut steel (stainless main arm), investment cast header block. All made in USA. 1932 in the works.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Very cool. Would you ever consider offering a chopped version?

Re: NEW products available thread
 

Hot out of the foundry (well warm maybe), 1935-36 Coupe/Roadster/Cabriolet trunk hinges. Made in USA (Oregon specifically). 304 stainless unpolished. Can be polished, painted, or left as is.

Re: NEW products available thread
 

A Much needed reproduction. As with all your castings, they look great!

Just had these made up. 41-48 Hood latch dowels. Made here in Tennessee out of stainless. The cupped washer and spring will be done soon... stainless as well. Pictured is next to a original (excuse my black thumb recently smashed by a hammer)
