Re: Rebuld Vs Shock Conversion
Just received my rebuilt (remanufactured and perfect) shocks for my 37 pickup from Andy Falandes. Perfect! I couldn't be happier with this Christmas present.
Thanks Andy.

Re: 1936 Pickup bed floor question

Re: 1939 ford steering lock stuck
I've tried PB Blaster, even covering the lock so it could soak. Also many other products. It just won't move. I am thinking about removing the column so I can get a better angle to trying whacking...

Re: 1939 ford steering lock stuck
Thanks, I have the switch box off the back. Thinking about removing the switch plate on front, but the pins are almost flush and leave no room to grab. Hate to mess it up.
