Re: NEW products available thread
OldGold360,
Any chance that you'll be making the capped studs used with floor mats and your sockets?
Your sockets were also used on '33-'34 V8 passenger car #1 wood floor boards.

Re: 77-6050A Truck Cylinder Heads
Aluminum heads on '37s only on early production with the rest of the year's production being with cast iron heads on passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and big trucks.

Re: 34 Pickup
Pete's recollection is correct, no boot offered for any '32-'36 passenger car, commercial vehicle or big truck hand brake.

Re: 35 Exhaust Manifold - Studs or Bolts?
If you were to use studs, you could not install the left side manifold after the engine was installed because of interference with the steering gear box. Conversely, you could not remove the left...

Re: New Rookie Question about Removing 32 Engine
A load leveler is a must, both for removal and re-installation, as it is tight quarters between the front cross member and the lower edge of the firewall Don't even bother to try and remove only the...

Re: Is this correct?
Instead of trimming the lower insulator, reverse it so that the lip faces up, not down as you have it in your photos.
Also you are missing the washer that fits beneath the nut. The large washer...

Re: Anyone need a 33-34 front shock for parts
The '35-'36 rear shocks have a greater capacity and are therefore have larger housings compared to the '34 rears. As Terry points out, they are functionally interchangeable.

With respect, there's no surviving record of when your two vehicles were produced, only of the dates the original engine/transmission assemblies were built. Depending on the location of the assembly...

For what it is worth, all of my '32 V8 restorations have NOS fiber gears on their camshafts without any issues.

Re: Odd Frame Repair?
Not unheard of on original '32 front cross members. A service cross member with a riveted-in doubler was offered in '33.

Re: Model B Ford 4 cylinder identification
It's consistent with its origin, a '32 coupe. And it most definitely has an original counterbalanced crankshaft.

Re: 1932 Ford shock absorbers taking them apart
