1940 Ford Coupe...........FIXED

[1931 flamingo]

Happy New Year ! ! !


Some of you will remember the problems I was having with my Coupe.
Finally got a starter sol that worked but in the process killed the elec module.
Ronnie Roadster fixed that problem but wouldn't set the carbs until I got it rewired ( upon closer examination lucky it didn't burn up.
Found a place near me that would tackle the job (Mike at Brig's Hot Rod Shop in Wolcott, CT.
While he had it he rewired the entire car (original style harnesses), hooked up signal lights and tach, fixed the wipers.
Fires right up and the Gen is now charging.
I'm ready for a warm day and the Spring show season.
Thanks again to all who helped me with the original problem.

Glad to hear your problems are behind you. You surely are lucky (now-a-days) finding a shop willing to take-on that sort of job, and that seem to have known what they were doing, and that got your car back to you in a timely manner without a bunch of weekly excuses why no progress was being made. You actually hit the jackpot by selecting that shop. In fact, you ought to do everything in your power to spread the good word on those guys! DD
