Hey Tim, I did shoot you a message. Would you happen to have a 33/34 headlight bar? And I might try mounting one of my straight bumpers on the...
If have trouble locating a bar I might just give that a shot. The bar I have has a nice arch to it, more attractive than the OE bar. The ends line...
Is the stock 34 bumper bolt hole spacing 26" C2C?
Ok got the light bar sorted. I have the wrong one. Prolly a Model A bar. Next question, hitting the GoodGuys swap meet Saturday in Pleasanton CA....
Steve, YES! this all makes sense now. Can you send pics to dave_wnv@att.net ? I'm waiting for Pete Eastwood to reply to my inquiry. Wondering if...
Hey after researching I think I have a Model A truck bar? The ends of the bar dont bend like the 34 truck bars. But it sure matches the 30 A's...
Can someone verify the length on my headlamp bar? 33-34 Ford PU. 38.75" C2C on the lower (inner) mount holes. pic below. Its pushing the fenders...
Ok mystery solved. Thanks guys!
I'm asking about attaching the front sheet metal (very front of front fender has a counter sunk hole, near the sides of grill shell, slightly in...
Does anyone know if the "Early Ford Store of California" is closed? Not answering phone for a week now. They are in San Dimas CA. The older gent...
So I'm fitting all the sheet metal and have not a one seal to work with. On the front fenders, I know there is frame welting. I see rolls of the...
Hey so looking at the two trucks in the link above, they dont have the exposed 3 bar hinges. What year are those tailgates?
By George that's it!!! the 2nd one was the one I was looking for. That chocolate/gray one is a beautiful truck too. Thanks anothercarguy!
Any idea what years 35 and up will fit the 34 and older? I know I can measure and will but just curious. Thanks, Dave
What years of tailgates didn't have the Ford name on them? Mine does not have it. Got a local guy selling one that he states is a 34 and it has...
Hoping you fine gents can point me towards that gold 34 pickup referenced above. @ RodStRace, body is on with proper wood kit and shimmed so the...
Need some help on finding a post! I somehow ended up seeing a post on here for a 34 Ford pickup that was for sale. A gorgeous gold metallic...
Ok I'm back at it! Holidays are over and its time to swing the hammer. Giving up on the hood/ rad shell for now. Lets talk about doors seals. Can...
The problem is the U clips aim it at the ridge, it will work its way rearward but I thought that looked dumb/ incorrect. I ran it through my bead...
Does anyone have a better seal they found to use on the grill shell vs. the lacing that comes in the Vintique grill shell lacing kit? Its much to...
Deuce, sent you a message
Jeff, you have any J hooks being used on the cowl lacing? My kit came with 4 but I dont have any slots. I'm thinking its used on other years etc....
Gettin there on aligning the hood/grill shell... but I need some info on the lacing. On the cowl does it go in the "trough" or in front of the...
What's the engine that Walker is made for?
From Drake: Hood Side Center Rest Brackets; 1932 Car, 1932-34 Pickup...
Oh hey, can someone post a pic of where the hood side bracket is mounted? I don't have them and I don't see an unused hole on my frame for it....
Yes! I figured that I only have the cowl and fenders to really to guide the hood spacing which would dictate where the rad/ grill goes. I found...
All very helpful info! I ordered the lacing for shell and cowl, new latches and stainless hood top hinge. My shell is definitely low. And that is...
Pics. The side shot does not show how low the front of the hood is based on the bead the runs off he cowl and onto the hood. Should the shell be...
I need some advice. Being I've not assembled an early Ford with a hood/sides (always had the open look prior) I'm not sure how to proceed. I have...
