What axle you using? Most of the 47" axles I have seen require a 29" spring. These are 47" wide at the king pin. 34" at the perch.
So, depending on wheel offset I could make the 47" wide axle work on either? Any complaints about ride quality going to the narrower front spring...
It’s basically just a body and bare frame. I was thinking of a 4 dropped axle and a Posie’s super low spring. Kind of want the discs as I plan...
I have 1932 Ford 5 window coupe project. Un-chopped and currently have no fenders. Trying to decide to run fenders or not? But, I want to get...
Thanks for the replies. The door opening looks fairly straight forward, but the rear side windows just have notches. Don't really see any holes....

Pretty nice 1934 Ford grille. One little split at the bottom And the chrome plating has mostly worn off. Some light putting but not bad. Bars are...
As they say a picture is worth a thousand words. I would guess I have the early 34 door and the 33 door. They look way different than yours. So I...
I know 1 of my doors is a 33 and the other was a 34. The extra steel on the 34 window opening has been removed to match the 33. Sorry for my...
I have nothing for latches so I still would need the assemblies to actuate them unless you make those too?
So, has anybody tried the United Pacific assemblies? They are listed as 1932 Ford 5 window coupe only. If they are truly all the same it appears...
Thanks!
Sorry, Ford.
So it is time to get the doors working properly on my 2 door sedan. I have no door latch assemblies at all. All I can find is 5 window coupe...
Pretty nice Grill. Bars fairly straight and no tears or dents at bottom. There are a couple small dings in the surround ...see pics. Hard to see....
It’s rough but restorable. Will need some new metal on floor and around the front and a dent pulled out of the top. Tailgate had a vent put in it...
I don't believe I said anything about the cast aluminum mounts, and no I am not using them. All I asked was a source for the rod end. If they...
Yes. Here is another link to one without the grease zerk fitting. I was thinking something a bit stronger on the rear would be nice....

If you are talking about Union Speed & Style out of Monticello it appears as if they bought a old Ford dealership in downtown Osseo. Big into...
Thanks! My car came fenderless. I don't like the appearance, I think I may make it the same width as the rest of the frame. Car is staying...
Is there any real purpose of this frame horn notch or necked down area? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I like the videos! I love wagons. I had a newer "G" body 1981 Lemans (think malibu) wagon with a 455 and a 4spd.... loved the torque. Although I...
I gave up Jan. 17th and ordered these instead. I need to get them in and measure for the rearend I plan on running. Of course the fronts shipped...

Forgive me, please. Still a bit of a newbie here. pprather.....Excelsiors do not come wide enough to fit a 18 X 7 rim. Thanks.
Thanks Canuk! Too bad they crack so easily. The sidewall of these tires is more plain and better looking than most out there. I was planning on...
