36 5 window trunk back
Is there anybody out there with an ORIGINAL 36 5 window trunk back that can tell me what the material was on the surface of the trunk floor. In pictures I have seen it appears that there was a tar paper type material on the floor of the trunk as well as the entire floor of the car.
Thanks for any help you can offer |

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
There was a tar paper like material covering the floor and trunk of your car. In addition, the trunk sides were lined with a sound deadener.

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
You can hopefully see from these photos the tar paper that was covering the floor and trunk. This is a 40,000 mile '36 5W that was stored since inside since 1951.

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
Thanks Don, the photos very helpful. Can you shed some light on trunk sticker and associated screws? is the striker painted and if so what color. I have information that the screws holding the striker are oval S2, can you confirm that.
Thanks again Don |

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
Hi guys, catching up late here...
For whatever it's worth these pics are from a 1936 3w Rouge car seen at Tahoe in 2013.

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
Was that wooden divider board limited to 36s?
I'm wondering if 33/34s would have had anything similar? Mart. |

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
On very Tangled shots #1 photo it shows a board at the very rear ,I cannot see how it fits around the pipes ,On Canadian cars you couldn't have the forward board because of the lack of a second strut to screw it to or is this a std verses deluxe thing ,Ted

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
Slippa....The trunk striker was plain malleable iron. It was attached with (2) oval head 1/4-28x1/2" oval head machine screws (Raven Finish)
Ford Nut......I do not have dimensions or measurements for divider board. The coupe in the photos was not mine. |

The board shown in the photos does not fit 'around' the trunk drain hoses, it fits forward of that point. Originally there were two wooden blocks that were screwed to the rear floor from the bottom. The board then screwed into these wooden blocks. The board essentially came straight down from the trunk lip to the floor. Hope this helps explain and I can try to get some photos this weekend. |

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
The 35-36 Ford Coupes used the board that is attached to the two vertical channels that support the rear deck. The board goes behind the channel to the rear and not in front as shown on one submittal.
There is a carriage bolt on each side buried into the wood with a large flat washer and lock washer that allows the washer to ride on the edge of the channels. The flat washer has a small 90 degree bend to compensate for the thickness of the edge of the channel and provides a "friction fit" not a tightly bolted connection. The handles are there to allow you to raise up the board to allow access to the area ahead of the trunk and behind the seat. I will try to get dimensions of the board and handle holes later. |

Re: 36 5 window trunk back
Follow-up on the 35-36 trunk board.
Board appears to be pine and a true 3/4" thickness. Length is 43-1/2" by 7" wide. Bottom on each end is a notch 1/2" high by 2-7/8" long. Hand holes are each 5" overall length by 1" high with 1" diameter ends cutout. End of hand hole is 7" from each end. Bolt hole on each end is 3/8" diameter and located 2-5/8" from the top and 1-3/4" from the end. Carriage bolts are 3/8" diameter by 1-1/4" long. Need 1-1/4" flat washer, lock washer and nut. Hope this helps. |
