Good info. Thanks

Duckwing

I forgot to thank you. Thanks.

Guess my nice brass Ford lock is not going to work

Duckwing

Can someone post photos of how to lock a 26/27 spare wire wheel using the locking lug nut that comes with a lug nut set.

Duckwing

I'd say that if I only had to do something twice, that would be a success story.

Duckwing

Send me your shipping address. I will put in the mail and advise postage. You can drop a check in the mail. Thanks - Jim

For Sale: brass Ford pad lock. I believe this lock and key set is from the closed Ford Motor Company car and truck assembly plant in Mahwah, New Jersey. This plant was about 20 miles north of New York City that closed in the 1970’s. Has key and works fine. This is NOT a spare tire lock with the debr...

For sale: Set of 26/27 rear brake shoes. I took these off a rear axle I bought for parts. I have searched but don't find the springs. $20 plus shipping.

Sold to Ron. I sent you an email.

There are traces of plating between the “ribs” on the covers. Don’t know what the material might be.

For Sale: five valve stem covers $15 plus shipping.

Too bad I already have mine. Hard to believe you still have the part. There are a couple on eBay for 2 and 3 times your price.

I did my painting back in 1980 with lacquer because it dried fast. Bugs had to be quick. I painted a lot of parts hanging from the kids swing set. Did have one fender come loose in the process so had a mess of dirt and grass to remove. Paint technology has passed me by.

This has turned out to be an interesting and more helpful topic than I expected. The community is a well spring of knowledge. Thanks for all the info.

Duckwing

Wow. Nice article. How to do it photos are always good.

Duckwing

Thanks for the input. What is strange, last week a few times I was able to do a word search the "old way" and it worked fine then didn't. It does not appear that when I use the Google method that I get all the results I did with the old way but may but may be my imagination.

Now that I look at the service bulletin layout, I can probably do that in my garage. Will have do some garage cleaning which is needed anyway. The only other issue is the pretty good slope where the driveway joins the garage floor but should be able to ramp up at the rear wheels to compensate. For s...

When you say “deck”, are you referring to the metal floor of the roadster body? My body doesn’t have that metal floor. Maybe the kit is one size fits all.

Duckwing

I also having same issue. No response from management yet.

Duckwing

I am ready to start on the wood floor in my 26 Roadster Pickup. Included in the repop bed flooring hardware package are three bolts the use for which is not readily obvious. They are longer than the bolts used to hold the boards together.

Used Google search but the results are limited and did not included the thread I previously found and am interested in resurrecting. Is there no answer re this issue.

Duckwing

My 26 Roadster has headlights mounted on the bar. There is a dealer set up for headlight adjustment shown in maintenance literature but that’s not practical for anyone to do. Are there any tips for aligning/adjusting headlights?

Duckwing

Thanks for the inputs. I was looking for options to pass on to a potential international buyer. Certainly had no thought of getting involved with shipping. That’s the buyers responsibility.

Duckwing

Does anyone have a recommendation re an international shipper to deliver a car to Europe?

Duckwing

I don’t know - there are some really smart folks on the forum.

Duckwing

26 Roadster has been sitting for a year or so. Poured in a quart of gasoline and she fired right up. Maybe that will give me some motivation. Need to get the pickup bed finished and installed.

Duckwing

Why is there much more radius rod end thread showing on one side?

Duckwing

I have purchased parts from Ben and they have always been first class items. No junk.

Duckwing

Stuff happens - we won’t be making the trip to Chickasha. Bed and parts are still available in Mississippi.

There must be a way but when I try to search old classifieds all I get is 2018.

Several years ago I drove our motor home towing a car west on IS-90 across SD. Was worn out from holding the rig on the road. Stoped to get gas and ask the clerk how they handled the wind every day. She told me they put rocks in their pockets and kept on going. Craziest thing I saw was a golf course...

Look on surplussales.com. They have one for about $15.
