Re: Location of vin on '32

Is there really an engine number? It is not found on the engine. VIN number is for vehicle ID and on transmission case and frame.

Re: Various wheels from 1940 Ford Deluxe purchase

the last statement is wrong. 1940 and 1941 wheels are 4 inches wide. I do not know when change to 4.5 inches was made but all 1946 to 1948 wheels are 4.5 inches in width.

Re: Flathead pencil test

I think that you are correct but my block measures close to 239 bore size. It probably was bored at some time to the larger size.

I doubt that they used 40 bumpers and redrilled the holes. The 41 Deluxe also used 40 style bumpers and would be identical.
