C&G Auto Parts is a good source for Owners Manuals and other books for our old Fords. The owners manuals are referred to as Reference Manuals. https://cgfordparts.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=owners%20manual&finder%5B1%5D=4776&finder%5B2%5D=4874&finder%5B3%5D=5058&find=find

For good service manuals contact the vendors listed in the left menu under "links". Most of the major vendors carry those manuals. Third Gen Automotive, C and G Ford Parts , Bob Drake Reproductions or Dennis Carpenter Ford Parts.

Thank you sir. I just received your book. What a wonderful source of information. Now I just need to find a good service manual. I live close to Green Bay,so I'm waiting a couple months to have my 40 shipped to me. Have a great Christmas!!

Good morning--- Go to "Online Store" on the blue part of your screen, then click on "Ford Books". The Club puts out a very nice book "It's Ford for '40". It will help you with the flathead. Plus, there's a couple dozen guys around here on this Forum who can answer your questions and help you with the car. My 40 Sedan is my 1st Blue Oval car. I've owned 4 El Caminos over the years and I bought my 2004 Silverado brand new. So, I guess there's still hope for you Bowtie guys. Welcome to the EFV8CA, and Happy Holidays to you. Tom

Welcome! You are not alone. Most of us have had a variety of old cars over the years. Most of mine were SBC's, and I still do have one of those. But everyone has one of those, they are everywhere. The flathead unique. There is something (lots of things) special about the flathead. Please put your location in the "from" part of your profile. Never know when someone close to you may be able to help with something.

Welcome and yes it did post. Photos please. And remember a flathead is a disease that has no cure except maybe more flatheads.
