34 Ford Tudor Wood - What am I missing?
 

4 Attachment(s)
I purchased a 34 Tudor that had new roof ribs and headers over the doors and quarter windows. (pictures attached) What parts am I missing?

I can't seem to find an illustration that shows everything and I checked a couple of vendors and they don't seem to list pieces that I think I need. So, I will ask the Ford Barn braintrust for input so I don't come up short or buy something I don't need.

Thanks for your help.

In the door post and in the windshield post for starters. Steel tack strip holder around to rear window. Newc

Thanks.

So, there is no wood around the rear window, the quarter windows or above the windshield?

I got one. He told me to pick out what I needed and I'm trying to figure that part out. That's why I posted here.

Since I didn't take this car apart, I have no idea how this stuff is supposed to look and I can't find a book or website that shows it to me.

Thanks.

Another supplier is fordwood.com in Utah. I looked and they list 33/34 Tudor wood.

Originally a twisted fiber substrate above the windshield to tack the headliner into. This can be replaced by wood. Dimensions are approximately 3/8" x 1/2" and can easily be ripped out on a table saw.

One more question for now. How is the headliner supported? Are there supposed to be bows or so they attach somehow to the roof ribs? If bows, who has them? Thanks.

No metal bows. The headliner tacks or staples to the wooden roof ribs.

Thanks. That's what I thought.

My 34 tudor had these little pieces on the bottom rear of the quarter wood. It also has these small pieces above the door tin, upholstery nailed to it. Here's some pictures, you might not even need these. Like already noted, tack strip wood in windshield pillars, no wood around rear window, 2 tack strips metal channel (tack material inside) from rear of quarter pillar around to window and to other side, one above, one below rear window. Added picture showing attaching points.

Thanks. I found the rest of the wood kit in some of the boxes I got with the car. I had forgotten they were included. I think I have it all figured out now. Thank you all for your help.
