Re: New '35 Purchase
Be sure you have a copy of the Early Ford V8 Club's book that covers the '35 Ford (Christmas present maybe?). It won't tell you how to do the work but it will tell you how everything is to be when it is finished.

Re: New '35 Purchase
Great looking car FlatheadTed! I just checked out the brake link and that is very impressive. I'll be thinking about that modification. I saved the link.

Re: New '35 Purchase
Thanks Mart, I read a bunch about that lube issue at the joint and did just that today. I went and got the JD grease and pumped all of 1 1/2 tubes into it. While I was there I naturally greased all the fittings. Took her for a ride and walla! Really a huge improvement and very smooth. Also changed the oil and to my surprise it takes 6 qts! I must say that I'm a little disappointed in the fuel mileage, only 12-13 mpg. I guess those 411 gears and no overdrive really kills it. Anyways, I'm enjoying the hell out of driving it, 200 miles in 2 days and I haven't left town!!

Re: New '35 Purchase
You know, I just might do that! I guess you're not getting outdoors much up north there. This week has been fabulous, 50-65*, sunny and perfect to ride! I'm not having much luck today posting pictures never mind a video, but I'll try.

Re: New '35 Purchase
The SS Running Board Strips for 1935-1936 Fords. The Original Running Boards and SS Strips have a slight dip, whereas, some Reproduction Running Boards and SS Strips are straight? Two kinds, so be careful. You can't mix and match. You have to make sure which Running Boards are on your car before buying the SS Strips. Check out the above photos. The Running Boards on the Gold car are Original and are not straight, while the ones on the Black car are Straight. |
