Re: reverse flushing my 35.. lower hoses.. suggestions?

I would opt for the 50-50, helps inhibit some rust and no need to drain every fall. there are lower rad hoses made with silicon that are much more flexible.

Re: Clutch won't dis-engage

I have done that in the past also, but wondered if that would weaken the springs in the clutch cover.

Re: 1936 Ford parts interchange

I have 4dr doors on my 35 coupe. the modification is not that difficult. the coupe door curves down a bit towards the back of the door. Everything else is the same.

It worked well on my old 58 VW that used to be agave green, give it a rub over with the scrubby pad and it "blends" right in.
