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!)

Steve, I've seen a number of the brown ones. Not specific to a 60HP car.

The brown tool pouch is known to be original to a 1939 V8 60 hp. The black pouch, I believe, is correct for some 1936 cars as it is long enough to fit the 12 inch tire iron. I have seen other original '36 pouches that are 11 inch, it may have been something due to a factory location or something.

3W2,
From my experience, I, like you, have found the pouches of varying colors. All were "leatherette". However, my experience remains well within the years '39 - '40.
When researching for the book, the release stated (no quote) they were to be made of scr*p material as available. That would most certainly include many colors, etc.

With respect, as often as not, surviving original tool bags from the early V8 era were made from surplus artificial leather upholstery material such as the copra drab pyroxylin material used on 1932-'34 open cars, for example, and not necessarily made consistently with either the long or short grain black top material.

Model A tool bag is different from the V8 tool bag. Model A bag has "short" grain vinyl material and V8 is black "long" grain vinyl material. Carol

I make V8 tool bags. I use black vinyl top material, just like the original Ford V8 Tool Bags. My bags are the 2 snap style. I sell my Ford V8 Tool bags at Hershey for $20. If you've been to Hershey, we are in the Orange field - we have the "Ford V8 Tools" display board on an easel out in front of our space.
I could mail you a tool bag if you are interested or we also sell a tool bag with tools for your 37 Ford for $95. Shipping would be extra.

Wasn't there also a burlap bag for the jack, at least for the '37s?
