The Ford Barn

Does anyone know where I can buy, or what parts I would need, to install two spare tires back to back on my Fordoor Sedan. I remember sometime ago these were offered on one of the parts suppliers catalogs. Thanks for your help.

I remember seeing those also, long hexed nut like device. The extra weight will can cause problems with the body mounts, unless you beef up the body.

My 1929 Phaeton has carried two rear spares since 1957, 60 years, without a hint of any problem caused by excess weight. I found several sets of three extension bolts made for that purpose in an obsolete parts buyout long ago, and sold the several sets I did not need.
