I recently picked these up that I will use on 1946 pickup build. They don't look like the normal model step plates. Anyone have any ideas? Cheers...
Zephyrs are so cool. Can't wait to see more
Hi Lincolnlog 337 manifolds are now available from H&H Flatheads. I think mike is reproducing all of Kens manifolds. 4bbl, 2x2 and 3x2. I think he...
I've got a 3x2 and I'm pretty sure it's open plane. Mine came from Ken just before he sold the patterns to Mike Herman. They are a nice piece of work.
Thanks for the help 2racer, I logged in, on my pc and checked the activity. Couldn't do that via the Hamb App on my phone. The fellow hasn't...

When I imported my car I ordered a new window cylinder from HYDRO as I was told that the drivers unit was missing. My pump goes but haven't got...
Hi Ken your four door looks cool. Black is a good colour. What size white walls are on your car? Factory listing is 8.20-15 which is pretty tall....
Here's some photos of the car that I was emailed. It is definately a Cosmopolitan as it has the one-piece windshield as opposed to the...
Thanks for the advice Rusty. I was assuming it was similar to the mercurys and read that they were lowered 2-1/2 to 3" in the front and 5" odd in...
Hi all, I've got a few questions regarding parts for a 49 cosmopolitan. The car is stock 2 door with the 337 and 3sp+overdrive. The interior has...
