  1. Selling nice restored pair of Trippe lights 750. They will need new wiring. The first picture was taken with a flash. One has a tiny mark on one side and I tried to get a picture of it but it didn't come out good. (see last picture. I can deliver to Hershey. You can contact me at Expumper@att.net

    Like most things, when it comes to original 1932 V-8 Ford engines, the Devil is in the Details. Original and CORRECT 1932 Ford V-8 engines and blocks are one year only and-if you know what to look-are extremely different than later examples. There have been volumes written amount these minute details in the Early Ford V8 publications. The prices and values of Ford V-8 engines drops significantly after you pass 1932, 1933-34, etc.

         To the untrained eye, all early flathead Ford V-8 engines look the same but they aren't.

         It is also important to remember that there were inherent issues with these first year, flathead V-8 engines. For this reason there were changes made in 1933 and many 1932 V-8 engine cars (correctly called the Model 18) had their original engines replaced early on in their active lives. The survival rate of original and correct 1932 engines is quite low. There are still people restoring EFV8 Club, Dearborn Winning 1932 Fords and CORRECT 1932 engines are still desirable and sought after. Good, clean, rebuildable examples of a real 1932  engine are still quite rare. 

    This is a true 32 block by the straight down drains.

    Are they marked RR? They were on my PI, but RR bought the lights  from an outside supplier and I would suspect that unmarked examples were sold to other car makers as well.

    They are not marked. I have never seen these on other makes of cars.
