Re: 48 mercury door
My car isn't exactly what you'd call a restoration, but I used a pair of 63 Galaxie armrests which are bolted to the door itself through the door panel.

Jackson MI swap meet
I was flipping through facebook the other night and saw something about the Jackson MI swapmeet in January. Does this swapmeet usually have a pretty decent turn out/ worth the trip?

Re: 46-48 Ford drag link
I couldn't get under it very well, but this is how close it gets. I got it to wiggle a little way down but I'm sure after it's tightened I'll get a little more clearance.

46-48 Ford drag link
I want to make sure that I'm doing this right.
I found this pic on the interwebs, and it seems to fit better than any other way that I've tried.

Seeing that we're on the subject of 42 Fords I'm on the hunt for the trunk handle base for the 42 Ford. I have the stamped trim piece, but I need the piece special to the 42.

Re: New Project 1947 Ford Super Deluxe
We had a BBQ place down the road from us all their walls were decorated with those kinds of posters. Too bad, they dumped all that when they went out of business.

Re: 46-48 front fenders
That's kind of what I was thinking, and of course, I did it all backward. I have to take the other fender off and clean so maybe I can try again.
