Help Needed! Searching for a columbia rearend

Wanted: Parts
Location: anywhere​

Need Columbia 2 speed rear end for 1940 Tudor Sedan. Prefer to have one that is already built and "road-ready" but will consider one in good shape that needs rebuild. PM or email hintons_rides@yahoo.com or email hinton1937@cableone.net

or..columbia two speed parts in So. Calif (951)-719-4077
Em columbiatwospeed@earthlink.net then again there's....ebayyy
good luck

 

came across this in the archives awhile back
http://columbiatwospeedparts.com/default.aspx

 

They occasionally show up on eBay; there's one listed now as Item No. 360051335403. As difficult as it is to find a Columbia axle in good shape, the controls can be even harder to find, especially the speedometer changer. That being said, a Columbia unit greatly improves a flathead's driveability, and once you've driven one you'll never want to go back

 

Shouldn,t this be in the Classifieds?

 

there was one in the classified section a month or two ago. Do a search for it.

 

have had columbias in 3 cars and have one ready for my next t coupe project. e-mail me your ph. # for some tips i learned..jonny stooksbury in knoxville tn. bulletproofs them and might have a rear.found my last one at a body shop while at viva las vegas 2 yrs ago.

 

Having several replies and emails helping me out but I have one more question about the columbia rearend. What all years/models columbia rear end will work/bolt under the 1940 Ford sedan? Thanks for any help on this. Ronnie

 

That one on eBay is not for someone unfamiliar with columbias...

 

I'd also like to have a 2-speed rear axle but know nothing about them. What all is missing from this one? Approximately what would it be worth?

Thanks,

gary

 

I'd take 1500 with me. Offer a grand to start with. See if he'll throw in the dog.
