I just learned that my pen pal, David Morris (tiger.1000 herein) in the U.K. passed away on Saturday. He will be remembered as a frequent contributor here regarding the many components that he made...

Re: 1932 Radiator Cap

Re: 1932 Radiator Cap

Re: 32 grill shell
No can do at the present time as I am far away from my indoor junkyard, but notwithstanding, I would not use the grill bar spacing as a way to distinguish an original from a reproduction as I think...

Re: Did I hear this correctly???
It's Edsel Ford II and yes, he is the son of Henry Ford II. And if you read the link in #2 above you will note that neither is new and both have been modified to a considerable extent. (That...

Re: 34 fan question
The longer hub fan that you cite is either a '32 or '37 fan depending on the shape of the blades. I doubt if either will work on a '34 with an original intake manifold, generator, and radiator. I...

Re: 1932 1933 1934 truck restoration or hot rod
Hop up,
Having an early cab with the non-removable roof and brace-less visor is consistent with the chassis. About all we haven't covered is the cowl vent, which likely is an early version as...

Your truck has a very early chassis frame, not the first version, which had no 'legs' on the center cross member to form a K, but the second iteration. The purpose of those pieces riveted to the...

Re: 34 front fenders assembly
Mart,
