I'm looking to see if anybody knows if and who might reproduce the guide for the doors on my 33. I guess possibly other makes could fit. I would even go with used also.

    To PM:

    1. Click on the blue "handle" of the person you want to PM.  (Your handle is 33kc1989, for instance).

    2. The next screen that opens will be the person's personal page.  Look for the small "MESSAGE" box at the upper right side of the page, and click it.  A new box will open, into which you can type your message to this person.

    3.  When done, click POST MESSAGE at the bottom.

    4.  Do NOT put your message in the box under the word ACTIVITY.

    LOTS of parts such as this were outsourced, Check early Ford parts catalogs, Ever look at your emergency brake handle?, Guess what , Its the same as a Model A Ford.  !!Surprise!!   I found several things that interchange in the 50 yerars I had my Terraplane Eight.

    Sure worked for me, but of course you might just to make them work, maybe not exact, but if you don,t have one, what you gonna do. Never said 34,35 or 36 were the same.

    Are the hole centres for 34/5/6 off by much? Can the holes in the pillar be filed out? Does the fixing screw have a hex nut behind it or is there a cage nut or welded nut inside the pillar?

    Can the holes in the 34/5/6 guides be welded closed and relocated?

    I very much doubt that anyone repros genuine 33 door guides, the market for anything specifically 33 is very very small.
