Default Re: 1937 Ford Fordor Survivor

Thanks all.

John, I am a member of the EFV-8 C/A.

Randy, Yes, this is the car I was talking about earlier.

As an historian, I certainly do appreciate the "Time Capsule" quality of this car. It is old. It is a little rougher in some spots than the photos indicate and there has been some repaint.

It is an early production car with the early fuel tank filler neck, no radiator see-through shield and 12-36 glass. There are no 78-6050 Aluminum heads; the left one appears to be the 77-6050A type and the right one does not have any Ford script but does have the engine firing order cast on it. It has sealed beams which will be converted back to the 1937 type headlights. The windshield is heavily frosted and not usable as is. I found one to replace it from a Ford Barner in Muncie, Indiana. I reckon I'll be getting out there to get the windshield in the future.

I'm looking forward to getting the car running and safe to operate.
