Re: Transmission Oil
The Sta-Lube that TerryOH pointed out in post #5 is what I use in the gearboxes because it's GL-4. And I use it in the rears too but more for convenience than anything else. I have a '36 and a '35.

Re: ‘48 Allard on eBay with a Ford Flathead V8
Juice brakes on the front, so I think the cables running down the torque tube and out to the wheels must be parking brakes?

Re: Uploading pictures
I know we're all just trying to help. Here's a post from about two weeks ago where I mentioned the file sizes. It looks like 2000 KB is about the limit on .JPG's.

Re: Uploading pictures
Windows users have a built in app called PAINT. It has the ability to resize photos. .JPG's need to be about 1.4Mb or smaller, I usually set the pixels to about 2400 in the larger dimension.

Re: 1938 Temperature Gauge
Frosty1 I'd say you want to buy that now because it's the right thing if you're doing an original car. That's a minty gauge and the dude that offered it is as good as it gets!

Re: Not Ford, But Definitely Timely
Yuppers, Marcus and Margretha are very reliable sources. A heated matress pad is the bomb. Much better than an electric blanket, much! I mean, heat goes up right?

Re: Flathead identification
Welcome to the FordBarn Forums!

Re: 12 year old Coker tires, still ok?
Yeah, um, no. Not safe if it's me.
Now have I done it, yes. I drove my '35 for a year on fourteen year old bias tires. But I was lucky, and silly.
