Unfortunately, none of the V-8 Club's books nor the DeAngelis/Francis book are available in digital form. Overseas postage costs have become a serious cost deterrent to acquiring books published in the U.S. One cost savings idea Club members in Australia and New Zealand have been using has been to combine orders as three books cost the same to mail as one.

Hi All I have hopefully located the books I require to assist me with my choice of Ford model to build a hotrod. Macs in the US say the V8 Album is on back order and should be shipped to me around the 18th of August along with a CD and two other books all within $5 of the shipping price of one book. Thanks for all your advice Regards Brian Lewis (Australia)

Hi All I received the back copy of the "The V8 Album" yesterday and after reading it, I have decided to choose either a 33 or 34 Fordor as my project. I feel that the best way to achieve the car I want is to buy a project already started, so if anyone knows of a 33/34 Fordor all steel relatively rust free project preferably with all the parts avaliable, I would be interested to hear. Thanks again for all your assistance. Regards Brian (Australia)

Hi All I have purchased an all steel 1933 Fordor sedan and I am searching for a new dashboard that is from a right hand drive car. I would appreciate any assistance in locating one. Regards Brian (Australia)

With respect, there was only one dash/instrument panel stamping for both LHD and RHD passenger cars during the '33 model year as the instrument panel insert and the glove box are interchangeable side to side. The only difference in the two complete dash assemblies was the location of the bracket for the lamp illuminating the instruments (gauges) which is a pretty easy task to relocate from one side to the other. Perhaps you are thinking a '34 model dash where the instrument panel is integral with the rest of the dash which required unique LHD and RHD stampings.

Thanks 3W2 I have had my 33 Fordor since Easter. I can see what you mean re the dash swap over (glad its not a 34)! I will have all the modifications completed by October so I can satisfy the Queensland Transport Dept. that will allow me to have open registration. Thanks again Regards Brian Lewis Queensland Australia
