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!)

I would suggest that you call Roy Nacewicz for an answer. He has restored a '37 sedan delivery (and a '32 sedan delivery).

Hi I have attached a photo showing the 37 Ford windshield header panel part number 78 701418 it is a one year only part, I have also included in the same photo the windshield header panel wiper motor covers for a 37 Ford panel, pickup or truck I do not know the part number. The covers are also a one year only part, I hope this helps.

Great, that makes total sense to me. I will keep an eye out for a coupe one.

I have a 1937 Ford Body Parts list book,Form 7572 printed in June 1938. I think the part you are referring to is called the windshield header panel and I can tell you that my book list the same number for closed cars and the sedan delivery. It is 78-701418,I think that is what they are referring to in the book. It should not be tough to find if you are missing this panel I see them on Ebay from time to time. I cannot seem to find my 1938-1939 Ford body parts book to see if this same panel stayed with the #78 prefix,meaning it would be the same 1937 through 1938 and mayby 1939,assuming a panel was still used with top mounted wipers these years.

Your question is very hard to answer, unless someone has restored the 37 Panel Delivery.

The trim colors and patterns were changed between years and that gave the part a new part number, so the Body Parts Catalog may not work.

I would check with the V-8 Club's 37 Adviser to see if he can give you some guidance.

Hello,
Not sure what the correct name is, but the part that I have a question about is the front overhead panel to which the visors mount.

Question: is this panel unique to 1937? or is there one from another year that I can use in order to keep my sedan delivery stock?

Thanks,
Gregg
