Re: 32 steering wheel on a 35

The 35 wheel is very unique one year item. Check the ford club restoration book. The wheel has raised areas every inch or so around the perimeter. Very obvious.

Re: First drive, a few issues!

Possible you have a cracked syncro ring (blocker ring) which would require the transmission to come out and apart. If it were the clutch then both 2nd and 3rd would grind.

Re: 1932 oval inside mirror and window arms

Ford did not use the oval mirror until late in 36 yours appears to be taken apart removing the glass. Doubt there will be any interest in buying it.

Re: NORS Cast Iron Flathead Cylinder Heads - Wohlert

Looks like FOS and FOT are Wohlert part numbers. These letters can be found on in service heads and owners often wonder what they mean and what company made the heads.

Re: 1936 Speedometer / Odometer Question

I am not aware you can get the proper color numbers and background. Look at model A speedometer parts, also I think they are made for 1940 speedos. It is a pain to apply, to cut between the numbers...

Re: 1937 coupe condenser - engine pulse

If there was a wire from the condenser center isolated terminal to the case this would short the condenser and the engine would not start!
