Re: 39 ford convertible value

Re: '41 buyer's guide?
Since the 1941 Ford is a one year only car, I would suggest buying the most complete car you can find (no missing ss trim or interior trim). Trying to find missing trim pieces for 1941 Ford is a...

Re: Affordable tires?
You might want to try H.A.M.B. for some good used tires. The hot rod guys over there often buy stock Fords and sell the running gear and wheels/tires. I have seen a set of five brand new with...

Re: 32 Ford Deuce By Tony Thacker
His edition might be a "re-release" of the previously published work. Probably re-released to commemorate the 75 anniversary of the 1932 Ford.

All of the differences between the two 1938 models are explained in detail in the Early Ford V-8 Club of America's reference work titled "The 1938-1939 Ford Book."
Good luck
