Default Reference text recommendations

All,

I came across the 'Ford 1941 - 1948 book' in my internet travels. Before I buy, can anyone recommend this as a good reference text for a 1941 Super Deluxe convert?

Are there any other texts I should consider as I slowly build my library?

Many thanks

T

I have that one and also the V8 book from the EV8 org which covers 32-53.
As far as the rest of my library I'm starting to collect the books on the flathead V8 motors, Ol Rons book, JWL's book etc. I also surf eBay for brochures, factory parts manuals, old magazine ads etc.

Picked up the 'Ford 1941 - 1948 book' at a swap meet on the weekend. Very informative. Thanks all for your input.

On the lookout for more.
