I've been looking to replace the rubber cushions the motor mounts sit on in our 32 roadster. Nothing seems cut and dry to be certain what's offered actually matches what we we have which are likely original but even if not, are no later than 1950's parts. The set here

looked OK, but when I called the company I got only a recording. Guidance on a good source would be appreciated.

thanks

Speedway motors also has the universal '32-'36 motor mounts.

Be persistent; Drake's aren't just okay, they are the best.

The Bob Drakes mounts are the best. The Speedway mounts do not have the cupped base washer. There is nothing to prevent the cushion from expanding and flattening under load.

41ford1,

The cups aren't used on a '32 unless the front cross member is a very early one without the stamped-in depressions that serve the same function as the cups. The cups do not reappear until the '35 model year.
