Re: OUR 40 FORD
You Tube set this video as a recommended link. There are more 1940 Ford videos, including some visitor rides over a closed course at the 1939 - 1940 Worlds Fair at New York.
In 1940, only the Deluxe had left and right tail-lights from the factory. The windshield wipers mounted on "towers". The linkage from the wiper motor connected to a lower shaft and the wiper action was transferred to an upper shaft with a small chain. https://youtu.be/PORkrY_e_HQ I replaced these on my '40 even though the originals looked not too bad. the splined drive to the wiper arm is usually what fails.
