Re: 1931 Slant Windshield Fordor Firewall

No.

Slant windshield Fordor was introduced in March but the indented firewall didn't appear until May.

Re: What year is this car???

Is there a "coupe pillar" that is, is there is a step between the cowl and the body or is it smooth?

Stepped is '28-'29. '30-'31 was smooth transition.

That is what you should be looking at.

Re: Spare Tore Covers from Tebo Barn

He's legit. I believe he recently bought out an old parts supplier that closed up shop a while ago.

Re: Old Pictures

Look up the Dick Whittington Collection. He was a commercial photographer in LA during that era who took a lot of insurance related photos of car wrecks. The roadster in Post #3 is a photo of his.

Re: value of magazines

Unless you market them very specifically to grab a very small audience's attention they aren't worth much at all. Only the earliest (1950's) era mags are worth more than a few bucks.

Re: 1931 budd cab roof help.

That's exactly what it is. If you want to replace that rear bow you'll need to pull l those nails and tack it down again when the new bow is in place.

Re: Help! Identify this engine

The engine that number originally appeared on was stamped September 9th 1930.

Engine parts are interchangeable between the years (with very few exceptions) so don't worry too much about that.
