One more thing. You've got to get yourself the "Green Bible." It's the 800 page parts book that lists every part for every Ford from 1928 thru 1948. If you wonder whether your car had a part or which part is right for your car, it will tell you and often show you with a diagram. There are several for sale right now on ebay for about $70.00 or you can get it on CD for about $30.00 here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...item53e58aad27 |
I have one of those in my garage. When I inherited my grandfather's 1947 Ford coupe I found it in the trunk with all of the other parts.
