Re: Help to finding the right oil pressure switch

The motor is the original Ford, 8AB/8RT Flathead 239 cubic inch.
It looks to me that the 41A-9278 is what I am looking for.
Thanks for the help

Re: How about restoring your first car?

I agree with Green50, a great story, and it is hard to believe that it's the same car.

Re: Replacing window felt f1 pickup

This is good info. I had been thinking it was something I was doing wrong. Sounds like the 3M stuff is the way to go.

looking for a parking brake leaver spring

The 52, f1 parking brake lever has a spring that holds tension on the ratcheting system, and that spring has broken. Does anyone have an idea where I could get a replacement?

Re: 52 F1 turn signals

Wow, lot of diagrams. I found some that could help and it looks like one wire does feed each side. I want to get away from the extra lights so I guess an upgrade is needed.
