I did not mean to offend any of the members. As i am running a highly modified 59ab flathead engine 39 trans with lincoln brakes. I have gotten a lot of good info from the site. Thanks for all the help. Stan white age eighty two close to eighty three.

Good for you, Stan!

I would enjoy seeing your '34 3 window.

when one is looking for advice, help, or a hard to find item, it pays to have friends in the world of Ford😎

Glad to see that the site remains focused on sharing knowledge about Fords.

Interesting fact :

From "Ryan"'s initial post on this thread :

"Question: Is the Ford Barn about hot rodded or customized early Fords?

Answer: No... That's not our focus on The Ford Barn. The Jalopy Journal focuses on that stuff."

I think things are changing; lately, when I see a more than superficial question about early Fords on "The H.A.M.B.", the most prevalent answer has been "Check with the guys on The Ford Barn". Although a lot of us are on both forums, a lot of the performance experts "Ronnie Roadster", "Bored & Stroked", and even the late "Ol' Ron seem to favor this board.

And I'm glad they do; there is no way one board can provide the detailed expertise on the many, many subjects discussed on the "H.A.M.B".

I replaced the entire brake system on my 1941 Ford coupe. New drums turned, shoes, wheel cylinders and master cylinder. The brakes are spongy and sometimes go to the floor. I have bled the brakes and lightly sanded the shoes. Could it still have air in the lines or something else?

You should start a new thread, not under the present one where you're unlikely to get any help. Where you are now is too general and not new topic specific
