Same to you and your family!

Here you go Kimmc:

Here's my homemade license plate holders (with '29 New York plate - car came from NY - and Daytona Beach topper) installed on the headlight bar.   I wanted to make this happen rather than wait indefinitely to find the right (non-existent?) parts:

What's the furthest distance you've driven your old Plymouth?  For me, it's only been 40 miles one way with the total trip only being about 115 miles.

I'm thinking of driving to Ormond Beach/Daytona Beach FL his weekend from Orange Park which is 90 miles one way...I'd be off the main roads and would stop occasionally to "check on things".   I'm thinking it will take me 2 1/2-3 hours.  Weather is supposed to be perfect!

Well, I decided to go ahead and make my own for now and also use my Daytona Beach topper in the process.  I just have to paint the brackets black before I put on the car:

Thanks...great point about the speedo...I'll have to try to use my GPS as well to see how accurate my speedometer is!

Does anyone know if these exist anywhere or if anyone has any "spares" to possibly sell?

Just curious...what is the "comfortable" cruising speed of your old Plymouth?

Mine is between 35-40mph, but the "sweet spot" is right at 38mph...

I had a 6 volt Deltran that worked well, now a Schumacher maintainer/charger that can be for 6 or 12v.  My current 6v battery is 4 years old.  Before that, I couldn't get one to last 2 years. 

They look like they are specifically for the artillery wheels that screw on...like on my '29, but with the entire word "Plymouth" spelled out...the fourth (different) one, I'm stumped on...same logo, but more depth/length to it.

All:

I found these in a box in my garage and not sure what they fit...3 of the 4 look like they are for artillery wheels (a 30U?) and the 4th hubcap is longer/different.  What can anyone tell me about them?  I plan to sell, possibly on eBay...

Chet - the car looks Awesome!

John:

Thanks again for what you sent me...it ties it all together.  I hope to work on the car tomorrow.

I rememmber from your email you sent and have their catalog.  Will probably order soon.  Also, will get new 2 wire clamps...did you know there are a  lot of these on eBay?

Well Guys,

I just figured out part of the problem with my horn wiring...There is no metal tab on the switch by the #2!  It is missing and probably fell or broke off...

Not sure how ultimately important that is for the horn anyway..is the tab just a junction point or does it serve any real purpose?   I'm still not sure where the horn wire ends up as it disappears into a wiring harness as it exits the switch/steering column.

I will have to look closer at those tabs on the switch to see if they are screwed on or somehow soldered on.  Does anyone know?  I'm wondering if I can make a tab and fix it...just a thought.
