FORUM RULES: Users agree to these Rules when using Forum.

The site administrator reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the user agreement without prior notice to the user. It is the responsibility of the user to regularly review the terms of this agreement.

The user agrees to the following terms:

All information that you provide to us for your membership is correct.
You will not use your membership to spam, harrass, or exploit other members in any way.
Vulgar, Abusive, Racist and Sexist Language will not be tolerated.
Commercial-type sales postings will not be allowed.
No mass posting or flooding of the boards is allowed.
No Advertising of parts or cars; no Ebay or business/commercial ads (please use the "Classified" for ads Wanted or For Sale).
VIEWING MULTIPLE TOPICS ON SCREEN: You can choose to see more than 10 Topics at a time ... Log In and choose "Preferences" from the top bar on the Forum page. Scroll down and Change the "Default Topics Returned" parameter to 25 or 50, and save the changes. Since this setting is stored in your browser 'cookies' (if enabled), it seems to use that stored value even if you are not logged in. So, if you use a PC that you haven't logged into the forum from, the setting still seem to remain at the default.
EXTERNAL PHOTO LINKS ON FORUM: You can still use external photo links in your posts on the new forum. They follow the rules of any link in that they have to have the URL link qualified down to the full image file name (example: .jpg). The links will open in a new browser window, the same as an uploaded image attached to a post. Since an image attachment to any post does not display inline with the post, the results are the same. You can use multiple external links within a post. This link is from photos on a site from Don Clink's 'Deuce@75' albums:

http://donclink.com/deuce_75_1/images/dscn2950.jpg

Using links from photo sites such as Photobucket can help in "size" issue with uploaded attachment files. For best viewing in web browsers, photos should be around the 800x600 pixel range, and probably not more than 1024x768. Most cameras today store HUGE jpg image files, as the default settings are in the 7, 8, 10, and 12Mb image sizes. The image files that are then attached are very large, and the browser can't display the full image size without using the scroll bars. Use the re-sizing functions of your photo editing software to reduce the image to 800x600, which reduces the file sixe and the image load time in the browser. Don uses Google's free Picassa3 software, which is an excellent photo management product. All of the photo albums of the Deuce, Grand National, and Auburn that are links on the NORG site were built using Picassa's web creation functions. And it's free? (THANKS to Don Clink for the info!)
HOW DO I SHOW MY EMAIL ADDRESS ALONG WITH MY USERNAME? You can LogIn on the Forum, and select PREFERENCES.

1937-1938 Ford Engine and Chassis Repair Manual V-14

Last year I purchased the 1937-1938 Ford Engine and Chassis Repair Manual. A few months after my purchase I discovered that the book was seriously misprinted. The book starts with page 1 as one would expect, then goes to page 2 and then skips to page 11. Then the book correctly goes from page 11 thru to page 18 where it then goes back to page 11. The book then goes correctly from page 11 up thru to page 26 where it goes back to page 19. The book then goes correctly from page 19 thru to page 27.

As it stands, the book is missing pages 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

I did call the vendor and they looked at the books they still had in stock and all had the misprint. Since there was good info in the book, I did not send it back for a refund.

Can anybody on this forum who owns this book (V-14) help me get my missing pages? We can work out a deal. The book is 8.5 x 11 inches, so it should be easy to make new pages.

Please help me get my missing pages from Ford Book V-14.

Any help appreciated.

Tony M.

That book has 32 pages with two pages not numbered with the wiring diagrams for 1937 on one page and for 1938 on another page. Send PM or email with your address and I will copy pages and send.
