Thanks! That sure looks like a blue color...maybe its just my computer. Good to know about the manifolds I have been looking for a manifold that clears my steering box on my AV8. Nice work!

My 1940 and 1941 Ford of Canada truck and commercial cars sales brochures show that the one-piece drum and hub was standard issue for those two years. The photos are from the 1941 brochure.

I appreciate the detailed pictures of the frame restoration... It answered a few questions I had about my 40 tudor and how things are mounted, etc. Looking good!
