I know, I know..... the horror...But we're talking antique firetruck here. Duels really aren't an option. It has a stock 85hp, 21 stud Flatty in...
Guys, I could use some help setting up a '37 for flathead distributer. It's completely rebuilt and just needs the point gaps and all set up...
OK, Had to bring this thread back from the dead. I saw the Lodi Torch name while looking up one of the local flame throwers. I have to ask...
Just a side note on the box fans, Most of them are using a brushless motor design. So there should be no sparks if it's operating properly....
I found some more info. Here is the part number I believe I need, Ford #51-2036.
This truck is 2-ton with a full floating rear axle. the front and rear brakes are identical except for the emergency brake hardware on the rear....
Will do, I'll take a few pics tonight. Thanks.
I'm hunting down parts again and could use a little help. Can anyone point me in the right direction to find the brake return springs for a 37...
I'm not arguing with you about refrigerants, there is no doubt that they produce phosgene gas when burned. That is a well known fact. Maybe...
I am in no way saying that heating brake clean is good for you, but what alot of people seem to be missing in the original thread (yes i read all...
I'm a fan of powder. I have noticed a few not so true statements here that I would like to clear up. If filling and smoothing minor...
My father has a 427 Tunnel port in a 67 Mustang GT, Runs good to say the least. ( I know, not exactly HAMB friendly) There's a pic on my computer...
So do I have this right? Looking at it last night if I leave the axle out when I fill the hub, I will be able to tell it's full when he grease...

Thanks guys, I tried Joblot but he has nothing that early. I did find a different local guy that quoted me a $90 per axle over the phone, I'll...

Is there a reasonably priced source out there for 1937 Ford 2-ton brake shoes. I just got a quote of $700 :eek: to have the service and emergency...
Thanks Tommy. The more I looks at pics comparing the two body styles the better that idea seems. The truck uses to the original gages and the...
I checked out the Rebel stuff and it looks nice, but not exactly the direction I want to go in. I would like to keep the original look of the...
Well, it's an open cab Firetruck so there is no roof to worry about. I was thinking that they would be similar but was concerned about the fit...
Here ya go.
Does anyone know if replacement and gasketsare available for this light. Also a little history would be great. Were these OEM on anything or...
What parts if any of the wiring harness on a 37 Ford 2-ton would interchange with the pick-ups of the same year. The current harness has been...
That will do! Thanks! The #1180 is the snap ring that holds the seal in place. So the larger OD makes sense there. It's prob the same a the...
