I’ve done it loads of times. Best to put in checked luggage. Box/wrap it like it’s going through the post and you’ll be fine. If it’s sharp/jagged...
Whoops. Yea don’t have 26/7 either haha. Sorry for the mixup
No 25 and older bun panels right now I’m afraid. But we’ll keep our eyes open!!
A couple of my ‘39. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Happy to help! Can’t wait to see this thing back on the road!
Such a killer find! Like the look with the fenders on.
What a great find! Congrats!
Easiest way to identify is that it has a stud on the body (like every flathead external regulator gen) and the pulley has 4 holes in the front of...
External regulator generators with fan provision are the unicorns I look for.
Same car. Shame it doesn’t look as nice as it did in that old photo posted on the FordBarn. Still happy to own it!
Stash was in New England. The stuff we bought is now back in PA. Working on organizing the truck load and getting it all back out into...
First Drives are the best! Congrats!
I’ve used the pebbled 1/8” thick Rubber-Cal on a bunch of cars. Always looks the part and holds up well.

I noticed when I was there a lot of the caps were missing off radiator shells. I’d guess they had one stolen one time and just removed them all to...
Thanks guys for the feature! It’s been fun documenting the builds and then putting together these wrap up videos. Glad everyone enjoys them! I...
Thanks for the mention everyone. Yea we’ve been doing a preorder on these the past couple years and order an extra handful for slackers that don’t...
I think you’re all set with Ron giving you how to set up the carbs! Bench test the fuel pump. If it pulls fuel on the bench you may have an...
The front of the driveshaft is fool-proof since it is all locked in place by the orientation and stack up of the bearing, thrust washer, speedo...
Foot traffic seemed light for the weather and sales were a little light but it was still a fantastic time as always. Too many empty spaces? Be...
Happy to help!
Haha thanks for the feature on this one! A bunch of guys here nailed it on the head with what is going on with it. A few things I’m not sure fully...
Happy to help. Welcome to send packages to my place and we can bring to the show for you. Send me an email if you’d like. irontrapgarage@gmail.com
Was a great show!
One is fully machined and looks as though it was on a car at some point. Going to disassemble and see what’s inside in the next week or so!...
Update.. found two more.. one is fairly complete! Hoping we have enough to complete the other two now.
Looks like a crazy trip! Thanks for visiting!
Yes a PA focused antique car and truck museum. It’s great and a few blocks from my shop!
