Any members out there who have information on FB40 sedans? A friend recently purchased a 1922 from Pinky Randall's estate. The car is fairly complete. A few of the missing bits/incomplete items include the windshield frame, window levers for the door glass, roof bows and roof covering. Any information, leads to information or pictures (especially pictures) would be appreciated.

Hi Louiee,
It sounds like the FB40 Sedan you are taking about maybe the 4 door type similar to the one that the late Jim Hickman restored. Not sure where the car ended up but there are pictures on the internet of the type of FB Sedan with the 4 doors. You may be able to track down the car from the Museum it is stored in. I would guess that you will be fabricating or recasting the windshield frame and the window levers as these parts will be very hard to find for the FB cars.

The Jim Hickman 1920 FB four door sedan is resting comfortably in Rose Hill KS.


How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

10-4, thanks Gents for the info and for the potential lead to another FB40.

Hi Chipper, would you have contact information of the person/family who now owns the '20 FB sedan?
