Either spray or brush on. Sounds like a good idea. Other choice would be the steps you can buy from most Ford restoration suppliers. I have experience with powder coating on motorcycle frames and while durable I don't think it would look good for long where you step on the running boards.

How about the air >cleaner and oil filter canister, etc.? Look at http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.agt.net/public/bboogaar/flathead.htm for information on what color the engine should be. For a 1952 truck it says green. There's no information about the air cleaner and oil filter canister. I agree with Sam about the black oil filter canister and think he is also right about the gray air cleaner (based on one engine I saw for sale at a swap meet where the block and oil filter had been repainted but the air filter looks kinda gray). This picture is at http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://world.std.com/~tjt/Cars/8BA.jpg (obviously the block in this picture is "bronze", not green).

I hear this is a common problem. Is it weak springs or an adjustment on the rear arms? Thanks Nick ------------------------------ From: "Robert Jones" Subject: Re: '49 ford truck radio Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2000 13:18:55 -0600 I bought a radio for my '49 last summer from a radio dealer at the Iola swap meet. He had one for a truck and didn't know what it was for, it had a beige face plate with six buttons. The first button turns the radio off and on, the right knob adjust the quality from news,music and speech. He also had three radios he had tagged for a '48 Mercury car that looked identical but had a chrome face plate and the mounting brackets on the side were a little different. With a little fabrication the Merc radio would fit. The '49 car radio is different than the truck, it has five buttons, I think the face plate profile is different too. Good luck, Bob Jones ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2000 14:23:30 -0800 (PST) From: Scott Subject: vent window frames found!!
