Re: Water Pump

In other words - core value? Very little to zero value.

Re: Temperature Sender Unit Bypass

My guess is there was at one time a hot water heater installed in your vehicle. Either it (heater) was removed or if it began to leak, someone took the shortest route to "rig" it.

Re: 1936 Ford Roadster Wind Wing Installation

Don, as always you really come through.

I am amazed at the wide tolerance of the glass thickness.

Makes me wonder how Ford controlled the bracket installation?

Re: What are the advantages of upgrading to Hydraulic Braks

Re: what position for lower rad hose nipple mount ?

51MERC has graciously included a very good drawing. You can easily see the nipple is installed at an approximate 45° angle.

I have used Vintique, in fact, quite recently. They are I believe the only option.
Decent quality overall, great quality for Vintique.
