1940 Ford Tudor Questions
 

Does anyone have some photos of the installation of the scuff plates for the 40 Ford Tudor? In addition, what is the oil pressure gauge rated at 50 psig or 85 psig. for the oil sender unit. Photos of trunk area cardboard installation is also needed.

50lb sender on the oil gauge. The scuff plates install the same as a coupe. Sorry I don't have photos. I have two coupes, so can't help on the cardboards

In regards to the trunk cardboards there's a maroon tudor on e-Bay with a great shot of the open trunk and the cardboards.

Here’s a couple photos of the trunk of my 40 Tudor. Original 48,000 mile car.

Slightly off topic.
I had trouble putting a wheel with a radial tire in the trunk. It was slightly (?) larger than the original. I removed the wood blocks behind the tire and now the radial fits well.

What I want to know is where to get the correct-grained trunk boards and cowl panel cardboard. I knew you could get them in the '80s but I didn't bother to get a set then. Any suggetions?
