Re: Ford/Champion spark plugs
Mike, DavidG, Alan, thanks for your input. I have purchased the plugs and they will be used in a 1942 29A 100hp Commercial.
Sorry I opened the proverbial can.

Re: Ford/Champion spark plugs

Ford/Champion spark plugs
Have done several searches here and understand that the Ford/Champion plugs are thought to be replacement plugs but would they lose points if the vehicle was being judged?
The reason I ask is that I...

Re: oil pan appendage
As has been indicated there should be a slot in the bottom which directs the oil flow toward the bottom of the oil pan.

Re: oil pans

I have the same problem on my 1942 Commercial and purchased a tool from Bob Drake that is made for this and works great. It should be in there catalog.

Re: Window glass question
