Re: Repair broken horn ring
Is there much space behind the ring that is not visible when it is installed? I've had good results using the plastic version of JB Weld although the metal version might work just as well. Layered...

Re: Power window relays
If it is anything like the '54 Ford it is a convoluted wire scheme that I doubt can be duplicated with a more modern relay. Does it have about eight terminals?

Re: 1954 Mercury engine color?
C&G Ford Parts is where I got the engine paint for mine. They show a light green for Merc flatheads but nothing for a '54. You might give them a call though. https://cgfordparts.com/

Re: '54 Skyliner radiator
Concours copper, original looking radiators are about $800 with shipping. I've decided to hold off on either of them until I get my tax bill. I'm leaning toward the Concourse because it is US made.

Re: '54 Skyliner radiator
Concours Parts lists type 1 and type 2 and show the mounting brackets on the sides are different. They don't show prices in their catalog though. I'm going to give them a call tomorrow.

Re: '54 Skyliner radiator
I found a 6 blade on Larry's for $60. Is that what you found?
Also, the measurements aren't quite right on the radiator. Is the fitment good?
