Re: 1940 Ford Deluxe Trunk Cardboard Panels

I guess your looking to making a pair. I've made them for all my cars by making cardboard patterns. I've used waterproof door panel board and recently ABS plastic.

Re: 39’ Flathead Fuel & Water Pump(s)

YES to all above. Only thing I did differently was I bought a rebuilt distributor from Michael at Third Generation. Another great vendor.
