Topic: 1951 Ford Interior Lights

  I am restoring a 1951 Ford Convertible but can't find any information on interior lighting. Does anyone have any diagrams, photos and/or stock parts available? Also where are the interior lights located? Unfortunately, my car did not have anything when I got it.

  That information is usually found in the owner's manual. The 51 Ford is being reprinted and is available from most vendors.

Here is a link to Bob Drake's site.

  Go to the shoebox-central.com web site. Everything you need to know is there. Call the 800 number and Chris the owner will answer your questions.

  Thanks for the help. It appears I will be able to find what I need at shoebox-central.com. What I am referring to are the courtesy lights for a convertible. I have two different brackets that will accomodate a slide switch and a lens that measures 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Also not sure where the brackets were originally located under the dash. Thanks for your help.
