Re: 1932 frame horn covers
I believe that they were a short-lived early version given the apparent scarcity of surviving examples, although they have shown up on both U.S. and European '32s. My favorite, which I believe to be...

Re: 1932 frame horn covers
Those in the ebay listing in #8 above appear to be as advertised, namely originals, and I agree that they were a bargain.

Re: 1932 frame horn covers
If so, those are not one of the six known versions of the originals. i.e. they are reproductions as none of the six had oval holes where the cover attached to the rear fender. Originals have only...

Re: 1932 frame horn covers
This sounds like a straightforward question that should have a straightforward answer, but '32 frame horn covers are anything but straightforward as there are six distinctly different versions of the...

Re: 1932 Ford Clutch Adjustment
The original starting point is with the pedal at rest against the rubber bumper on the underside of the lower steel #1 floorboard plate as Terry indicates.

Re: 33-34 Clutch Release Arm Question
With respect, I'll leave it up to you decide. Which do you think is more accurate, the 1934 edition of the chassis parts catalog (which I used) or the one published fifteen years later that you...

Re: 33-34 Clutch Release Arm Question
Unfortunately, that informative lineup of clutch release arms in the photo is missing two, namely BB-7511 which conforms to 18-7511, except it is curved to achieve the offset, not kinked. The other...

Re: 1932 ford pickup GVWR.
Ford did not publish a GVWR for '32 commercial vehicles, but if they did it sure as hell would not have been 2,579 pounds for the pickup given that the Ford-published shipping weight (no coolant or...

Re: 32 3W rear window drain pan
Restorations Specialties and Supply in PA have at least a half a dozen varieties of the seal you are seeking for sale by the foot. It was also used on the sides of the '36 and '37 radiators.

Re: 1933 Rear Tire carrier
Take a look at Trevor's photo in #6 above, and I believe that you will conclude that what you have is the same bar as in that photo. As stated above elsewhere, that bar is for the folding luggage...
