Hi All --- I'm new to Ford V8's and have one question to start. I like the 1936's and have looked at a few open cars for sale --- Phaeton and Convertible Sedan. Is the front seat movable on these? Can you move it back some to allow more room for the driver? On the Phaetons I've seen, there appear to be three wood screws holding the body to the seat back. It looks like you could re-position the seat that way. If so, is that true for the Convertible Sedan as well? I ask because I once drove a 1934 Phaeton that was so very cramped in the driver's seat that the car was all but undriveable for me. The 1936's I'm interested in are a little too far away to check out if they have the same problem as that '34 did. Any help appreciated. Thanks -- Scott

The 35-6 Phaeton seat is not adjustable. Roadsters have a 2" adjustment by removing the bottom seat frame and reinstalling it into pre stamped holes. The Coupes, Cabriolets, Convertible Sedan, and Fordor sedans have an adjuster handle at the center, front, bottom of the seat.
