That must be a trim piece on the side of the cowl not a bead between the top and side? I assumed it was a bead, but this rusty, twisted cowl has...
I do realize there's not much here, but I thought this was the cowl top. I thought maybe the bolts on the corners were from cowl lights. It seems...
Oh okay I had identified something else as the cowl top so I'll have to figure out what that is. I'm not sure there's enough there to post it. It...
So I found some more sheet metal today. None is usable but I'm going to probably buy a grill shell and headlights and mock it up for wall art....
Thanks. It seems like that's about the only material that would look the same outside all these years
I would have assumed plated but that metal and trim found right with the firewall it seems would be the cowl and I can't imagine that plating...
Is that your car? I'm looking at that trim around the cowl. It seems like a long shot as far gone as this stuff is but doesn't this pic of mine...
Agreed in general. 50 years ago though my parents bought the property and made trips there in my dad's 70 GTO convertible with the '35 back at...
I plan to get my dad a metal detector. He'll have fun with it. He mentioned it before just for the old house foundation and pump house fountain....
...I have a spare '33 Ford cab, big truck frame, 35 wires.. The other metal around the woods is bound to be door skins or cowl sides but anyone's...
Well that was easy. Dimples where the headlights mount look like 28 Chevy and they had that kind of stamped headlight bar. Good call! Were other...
My parents have had this property for 52 years and they've never really done anything with it (don't live there). I've seen some metal around...
Thanks guys. These measure right at about 11" like Irishsteve's, but if they were altered there I guess they were put on a 32 previously. I...
Thanks for the tip on the bed. I guess I'll have to make sure what I can use for a bed first if these are 33/34 fenders. UP only has one picture...
About how much wider is the bottom area on a 32 fender? Only one has a brace hole and the brace is aluminum so that's why I figured someone could...
Thanks for the reply. What are you looking at to determine that?
I bought these several years ago without question because they were available. They were advertised as 32. On telling the difference I'm seeing 32...
Nice. Thanks for the tip. That's what I was leaning toward, but I didn't know what was going on in the crossmember area. So I have two 32 pairs...
I have searched on the topic and still am having a hard time confirming this pair. I got three fenders. The left one in the first pic I know and...
That thought crossed my mind and I actually bought a pair of '36 sides, but I was advised against it because there would be too much distortion....
Does anyone know of someone who can punch 1936 Ford original style louvers? I want louvers in my smooth '35 hood sides, but I don't want...
okay..I see what you mean. It's hard to find good side shots to compare.
I found it on the internet! ...but it's listed in Manassas. Looks like it was there a while so you could have seen it! I was thinking about...
the "good" quarter seems to have the window pretty far forward from the rear corner though and it doesn't look like the belt line on either...
I was trying to get the size fixed before any one got to the thread, but I was late! :o
[IMG] [IMG] [IMG] The two quarters look different so I don't know if they're from the same car. My best guess would be something like a '31...
I was confused when I got my 5 page catelog in the mail. I guess maybe this is why. I just hope my gift card balance remains!
I emailed Clarke a while back about a bare '32 frame (because I like the X member over most people's tube X member). I didn't get a very quick...
Is there any suspension in the last two pics? I'm trying to get a feel for how the 1" taller frame affects the proportion of the cab to bed...
Do you have any pictures of the truck frame cut down? Do you happen to know how much you cut out?
