1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

I’m rebuilding a 3W Coupe. I clearly have a few extra holes in my car’s firewall. Heater hoses, radio mounts, and perhaps the odd other hole crudely drilled out for period attributes. Would someone be willing to post a photo of a firewall that Is known to be factory accurate? ‘Really appreciate it!

There's a great picture of a correct 1935-36 Ford firewall on page 10 of the V-8 Club's 1935-36 Ford Book.

Can't vouch for the accuracy, but here is an internet photo. If you are wanting 100% correct, like Don suggested your best bet would be a documented source.

Thanks, Gents. Ron

on post #3 above, it appears that a voltage reg. and some other relay has been added.

Re: 1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

The upper right relay looks like a horn relay, not sure what the other unit is. They are not original pieces for sure.

Re: 1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

Nor are the holes in the firewall made to attach them.

Here's the firewall detail from The 1935-36 Ford Book.

Great image, Don Rogers. I obviously need to buy this publication

Re: 1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

Ron, You can get the book thru the Early Ford V-8 website.

Ron, The '36 book is well worth the cost. You will be quite pleased.

Re: 1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

Ron, you might not know but Don was pretty much responsible for creating that book. I have two copies, one that was my Dad's. My buddy's shop features a copy that lives in the top of the toolbox and it gets pulled out quite frequently.

If you use this page to buy ($33.75 shipped), proceeds benefit my favorite non-profit.

The one on the V-8 club site is $29.95 plus shipping & tax.

Jeff,


I doubt that the Foundation can sell it for $33.75 shipped to a Canadian address as the favorable U.S. media mail rates do not apply to cross-border shipments. Perhaps Ron has a friend in Montana where it can be sent for that price.

Re: 1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

Good catch David. The Foundation says US shipments only, and I didn't see Ron was from Canada.

Re: 1936 Ford Coupe firewall
 

Thanks, everyone. I ordered the book this morning from a well-known Canadian vendor: George Moir Antique Auto Parts. He had them (and other parts I currently needed) in stock.
