I think there was a thread on this subject a little while back. Maybe a week or so. Good luck!

Hi Gene. Although it's on their website, I'm not sure if they have it in stock but at least it's a starting point.

I found 3 other places that show it.

McDonald Obs., Rockport, In. has 8 1-812-359-4965

Antique auto, Arlington, Tx. has 20 1-817-275-2381

Collectors auto supply, Oroville, Wa. has 1 1-800-414-4462

Hope this helps.

Honest Charlie's................$17

Bob Drake's.......................$32

Look the same to me

Looks like that is where Charlie got his name from.

Craig,

I hope you find one. I am the one who posted about a week ago looking for one. I called several places starting with Bob Drake first, and all the vendors I called were out.

It seems that most of the vendors get them from Bob Drake but problem is, Bob lost his supplier so, I still have one on back order.

I was fortunate to get one from a member on the barn.

As stated above, barnfind08 has 'em by the buckets-full...REAL Henry Ford stuff. PM barnfind08! DD

Thanks all.
Although the usual suppliers listed the part for sale, upon enquiry they didn't actually have it nor knew when they would.

Just ordered one from barnfind08.

Thanks for your help.

Good for you Professor

Now, you have been quiet lately, how about an update on Old Henry.

I had turned my attention away from Old Henry and got my favorite motorcycle running and insured again and was quite content with driving that with Pepe aboard for the foreseeable future. Then I realized that I was overdue for the monthly trip I take with my dad, who bought the car for $100 in 1959, and how much he enjoyed it and would miss it. So, I was just about to haul the car to Colorado for the cooch to fix it for me as he'd offered. Then, just as I was about to finalize that deal I had the thought to dig out my old Early Ford V8 Club roster and call some members in town to see if there wasn't someone local who did flathead engines. Sure enough, the first guy that answered my call knew just who and I delivered the car to him yesterday and he started to remove the engine today. Hope it works out OK. I expect that it will and I'll have Old Henry back on the road again soon if for nothing else than to take my dad on his monthly trip. That's why I needed the dipstick boss that sprung a leak last year: https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=120757

Thanks for asking.
