  1. Hi, Does anyone want to help me identify these shock absorbers on a 1932 Model 18 Ford.
    Thanks in advance

    Looks very much like an Armstrong lever arm shock fitted to all manor of British cars in the 50s/60s. If you can find a number cast into the arm you should be able to identify the exact car
     
  3. Thanks, That would make sense as this is a european Ford Model 18.

    These are rear shocks off British cars like MG and Austin. Maybe others too.

    I had a Ford Angela with those shocks when I lived in Australia.
