on a 57 get very small screwdriver and pry up one end, it just lifts out. Has a slight press fit.
My 57 that was bought new by my uncle in 1957 has both chrome headlamps rings and taillamp housings. I have pictures of the car in 1958 with them, but the bill of sale I have does not mention them,...
Yes, they should line up. You probably need to look at adjusting either the rear run channel the door (upper and lower) or the run channel for the vent window. These is a a bit of adjustment at the...
Shock absorbers will typically not raise ride height unless you have air sytle shocks on front with a significant amount of air in them. I would definitely stay away from shorter springs or spindles...
That is the roof retract limit switch. The bracket should be welded to the trunk floor in that general area and the switch is screwed to the bracket. If you still need the exact location let me...
Generally I have found that if you deck lid stops while closing in the roof erect cycle (putting the top up) it is caused by the package tray sagging and losing contact with the switch. However, for...
I don't believe you attched the picture. If so, I cannot see it.
It sounds like you may have more than one issue. You hear the roof looks clicking because either they have bottomed in screws and are ratcheting or may be in a bind. Some ratcheting is normal until...
I don't have a 59 but Concours Parts show an application and available part. I've used their parts before and find that most are aftermarket, but generally the quality is good. Part # B9A-5493-B...
Aftermarket sending units are pretty easy to find. B7A-9275-B. Look at Coucours Parts and Accessories, they show one.
I'm not sure I understand your comment about the crimp in the center of the front of the roof, but, does your roof has both seals on the front edge? If not, that might be part of your problem.

The lip on the luggage bin slides underneath the lip in the trunk. I took a couple of pictures of mine today and will post them later or send you an email.
It is pretty hard to get them to set in the lift channel. In the past when I have replaced my windows I used cloth ratcheting tie downs to squeeze the glass into the lower channel. If you go slow...
I looked at my original dome lamp today. The housing is screwed to the roof panel with a screw on either side of the housing. I did not take if off, but the lens is retrained by the housing and not...
Its really not that difficult. The hardest part is making sure the starter to bellhousing gasket is in the proper place. I might be wrong by calling it a gasket, but there is a gasket type piece...
I have 8 to 10 original relays if you need them. I think that would be better than trying to find replacements and certainly cost quite a bit less. Why do you want to replace them? Are you missing...

Sounds like your package tray may be sagging a little when the deck lid is going down. If this happens it will break the circuit and the deck lid will not close any further.
Thank you very much! That's exactly what I needed. I was beginning to think no one on here had a 57 Ford ;>)
