You do know that a 36 greyhound is not a Fpord approved accessory don't you? Just saying.

We found several repros at Hershey last year and wound up buying one ~ $75 - 100. None of the dealers had them or knew when they might be available again. Evidently the main source has stopped making them.

I have a greyhound in very nice condition except the tail is missing if you are interested.

The one exception to "it wasn't a Ford authorized accessory" was in Canada where it indeed was a Ford-released accessory.

Per David G's comments.....It was a mid 1936 deluxe Canadian accessory introduced along with the wood-grained dashes

Well you learn something new everyday.

Don, is the above information in the 1935-36 Ford Book or possibly on the EFV-8C/A website? Maybe as an update that can be downloaded/copied?
