Re: source for mohair upholstery fabric

In my opinion... leave it as it is OR replace the entire seat upholstery. An attempt to match the this will not work out well.
Think of the moth damage as "charm".

testing horn

Okay, please tell me if I am incorrect...
To test an authentic horn, I believe all I need to do is connect 6v. to one wire and ground the other.
Yes? No? I'm full of poopy?

Re: 41 pu spare tire options

Re: Early Ford emergency brake cable guide tube replacement.

Re: '39 wire control dash knobs ??

The end at the carburetor I had slipped the "ball and spring" over the wire and soldered a "cup" at the end of the wire. Used a ball end mill to shape it nicely. Worked quite well and smoothly.

Re: '39 wire control dash knobs ??

Newc, what you have is the early style. No doubt, you knew that.
I too had that style on the wagon I'd restored. I rebuilt what I had. Easy enough.

Re: Tail light connectore

Re: Banjo rear end hub, axle bearings and seals
