Default Re: Condenser for 1933 model B

Misconceptions abound: there was no Model C, but rather a continuation of the Model B. All '32-'34 four-cylinder heads had a cast-in capital letter C to distinguish them from the Motel A head with a cast-in capital letter B. That did not make a so-eqluipped Model A into a Model B, nor were '32-'34 fours Model Cs with their original standard heads. There's a simple acid test, simply provide a single Ford document that makes reference to '33-'34s as Model Cs. Good luck!

The ignition systems of '33-'34 fours are identical in all respects to the '32 four-cylinder ignition system.

Ford did not manufacture the ignition condensers that they used on their cars. Like today, more 50 per cent of a '33 Ford was manufactured by outside suppliers.

And original NOS four-cylinder condensers are not that hard to find.

William Shakespeare penned a term that is an appropriate subtitle for this entire thread.
