DEcals, Radio plates, Fuel ration tags
Engine decals. Each decal is $2.50 (which usually is less than 1/2 of what many dealers sell them for). Shipping for 1-5 is $1 (USA). Sorry, but Canadian shipping is extra.
Radio dials are...

Re: Another insurance question
First, this was an hypothetical question resulting from a discussion not an actual circumstance. Second, as for your reply, it may not be as simple as you suggest. Let's assume you make some...

Another insurance question
There are probably some insurance grues out there who can answer this question. During a discussion last night a question came up regarding coverage. If you insure a generally stock car and then...

Re: '35 Question: Engine Ground Strap

Re: 1935 with 1946 spindles which drag link?
Seems like this post series is getting more and more confused. Tie rods connect on the bottom. Whereas the '41 drag link (also possible some '42s) connect from the top and use a 11A-3306-B (bent...

Re: 1935 with 1946 spindles which drag link?
Mart-
You are correct, all tie rods enter on the bottom. Only the '41 drag link is attached from the top. I think there has been a misused of terms. The drag link is the what the question is...

Re: 1935 with 1946 spindles which drag link?
Randy-
I bought them new ($5), from a local Ford dealer in 1960 when I was converting my '35 over to hydraulics. As I recall the part number was on the tags. They are definitely untouched '41s.

Re: 1935 with 1946 spindles which drag link?

To the best of my knowledge the only year Ford used a top fit drag link spindle was in '41 (11A-3105). I have never seen a round spindle only the square type but that doesn't mean a round...

Re: 1935 with 1946 spindles which drag link?

I am not sure what you are trying to do with the '41 drag link. The only reason you would need a '41 drag link is if you are using a '41 spindle. All '35-'48 spindles require a bottom...

This subject comes up frequently. I have gone though this several times with '35 and '36 steering and hydraulic conversions. A few years back I wrote an article that appeared in several...

Re: Awwe Crap!
I just went through pulling apart a rear axle on a '36 without removing the entire rear axle assembly from under the car. Generally speaking everything went rather smooth . If you do need a rear...

This is getting weirder and weirder. In case you missed it the listing has ended and relisted. It no longer is "perfect" it is now described as "Complete and stock except the new brakes, untouched...

Re: '36 3 Window Coupe
I also wondered about that. It could be a heater switch but more likely I think it is a push-pull light switch. The reason I say that is there appears to be a headlight relay on the inner fender. ...

Re: '36 3 Window Coupe
I am in agreement with Bluecar on this. Like most guys a price of 66K (reserve not met) requires a closer look. Some of the things I see "suspect" is one of the under-dash gauges is a fuel gauge. ...

Re: 36 roadster floor mat
One of the BIG problems with a rubber mat is the likelihood of it tearing especially when checking the battery. Interesting, in Canada they had a 1936 "special deluxe" which had factory carpeting.
