Re: 1934 Phaeton Top Iron Hardware
I don't recall anyone having offered a kit of custom rivets for the '33-'34 phaeton top iron. If the original rivets are a standard diameter, you can obtain stainless rivers from McMaster-Carr and...

Re: 1932 Ford Three Window Body Tag
Even if it were still as built, you would not be able to determine the coupe's production date as a whole vehicle with any accuracy beyond roughly plus or minus a month. If your body is original to...

Re: Grey hound hood ordament
Alan,
You're correct, the Lincoln greyhounds were larger in keeping with the scale of the vehicles and had more detailing than even the '34 Ford cap made by Stant. Gorham, the silversmiths, was...

Re: 32 grill bull nose id
Not worth repairing the two-piece ornament given the quality of the still-available Drake reproduction. The one-piece ornament appears to be a shortened original which if re-plated could be a...

Re: original Ford wheel paint
The black ones were dipped, but like yourself, Mike, I am not certain about the colored wheels as I have seen originals with color over black.

Re: Is this heater from a 1937 Ford?
Double no. The only heater offered by Ford for its '37 vehicles sold in the U.S. was a hot air (manifold) heater. No hot water heater was offered.

Re: 34 pickup grill lacing
It is the same cowl and hood welting used on all '32s. The original material had a hard core, but the available replacement has a relatively soft core, which means that over time the hood will...

Re: More 32 identification help please
Without washers in the knuckles and given the overall curvature, the bumper is an original. The correct door latches for the tudor sedan (B-55) and Victoria (B-190) were B-46105-A and B-146106-A. ...
