I often drive way north of Oklahoma if that helps…..
Still available!
If OKC is a little too far away for you let me know where you are at and maybe we could meet in between. Thank you,

I’m sorry to hear that.
I had a 51 International that had a seat that hinged up like that too. Maybe I’ll post a picture of the bottom side once I pull it to see if that...
I had one guy that has had his 41 in his family since it was new told me this seat was correct, but another guy that has owned multiple 41’s said...
That does help. From what I’ve learned some 41 parts were more like the 39 and 40’s but sometimes they were more like the 42-48’s.
Is this the correct seat for a 1941 Ford business coupe? The back flips up instead of forward. It’s basically impossible to access the area behind...
Do you run filters on the bottom radiator hoses also or just on top? They seem pretty ingenious!
Should I go by the elbow feel or does someone have an idea on a torque reading?
I’m putting my 41 Ford back together after having the axle dropped and I have some questions… Should I remove all the paint from the perch pin...

Well, I finally got them out using a cheap ball joint press with some inserts that I made on the lathe, along with a bottle torch and an air...
Where are you located doodles?
My 41 Deluxe has an 8BA hooked up to the stock driveline. It has a rear sump pan but I couldn’t tell you what the pan was originally in. Let me...
How do I remove the rear leaf spring shackle sleeves from a 41 Ford? Seems a common enough issue that someone would have made a good tool to...
Excellent, thank you.
Usually I don’t like skirts but occasionally I think they are beautiful and I don’t even know why. Just fell in love with this picture.
I also did this with a universal Hurst 3 speed shifter that I got for $40 off eBay. Like the one in this picture
Hopefully you can tell from my username that I completely agree with you. Mine has an 8BA flathead with some old school goodie’s in it now but I’m...
Neither QuickTime or MDL’s websites mention the T170 transmission. Does the T5 adapters or bellhousings work with the T170?
I’m trying to make mine a little prettier without cutting up the body. Doing brakes, suspension, wheels and tires right now.
Did you find the right parts for this? I’m considering this same combo if I can find a trans adapter or the right bellhousing.
Actually the car is in OKC and the engine is in ND. I’m still just in the planning stages of this one but I think I have found the Hurst style...
What front mount do you speak of? Motor mounts? You guys are learning me.
That would be great! Do you know which style of oil pan you have?
Does anyone know what trans adaptor I need or if I need one? The Y block is in my dads barn and my 41 and extra flathead trans are at my house 900...
Any evidence to go with your encouraging words? Got a friend who has done it in a similar car?
So it was the firewall or the crossmember that was in the way?
