Confirmed on my old original as well. Rear hood hinge (by windshield) is body color.

Good stuff Chet!

I already see items I will be referencing with my slow progress on my project.

Interested in the wiring harness source and price. It is something I need to get done.

Unfortunately I forgot to pickup a new one while it was apart. I don't know if I ever saw a part number, could try the parts manual and these guys.

Checkout Daves resto project thread for more pictures. I'll try and get back to updating it, i'm about a year behind....

Brake and equipment warehouse made new ones for me. I have seen them on Ebay as wheel.

Where is this car located?

Saw that, hes dreaming.

See if you can find anything useful here. Its the only place I have seen info like that.

Here you go, found one on my photobucket already loaded.

It is black, except for the raised parts.

I have a motor and assembly laying on the floor of the garage I can take some pictures if that will help.

I bought this

Works with a 6 volt positive ground, I put an inline filter behind it and plumbed it right to the carb with no modifications. Works well for me, there is a few drips gas under the carb, but I haven't determined from what exactly.

I'm trying to catch a up summers worth of activity, unfortunately that was likely from July. Currently sitting at 9 above... but it has been mild here as well this winter.

The story will continue... when get some more time to load pictures etc. 

I pulled all the wheels, inspected and replaced bearings if needed (one outer front) and even pulled the drum off of one wheel and gave them all a good inspection. Wood is solid and tight.

Time to get the credit card out....


Coker was great to deal with, got setup and shipped no problems. 20" tires seem to be harder to find and less selection.



Again Frank to the resuce with the right tool for the job and literature to boot....



I quickly decided that I must possess one of these tools and jumped on Ebay and grabbed what was available, not as great as Franks, but it works!



The last owner started the attempt to get this car back to its former glory, and put new tubes and flaps in but left the old rubber. After a short 10 minute learning curve, I was changing these out quite quickly. I might have been a hell of a mechanic about 70 years ago......





I cleaned the rims up the and painted them while apart. Not too bad of a project.

Time to update, while I have a little time. Back to this summer.....

I see I left off with some goals for the year, didn't quite get them all (most) done. It still does not have a top, or new wiring.......

While pulling the radiator out I noticed the lower boot was split on the bottom side toward the front. Hard to see, and the water would have ran to the bottom of the rad shell and dripped as it was. So I cut all new boots and filled radiator to check for leaks.

Just capped and filled no pressure, no leaks. This lasted about 4 trips until the dripping came back, so out it comes again. Also fixed a mount for the shell.

Almost had to go to an ag dealer to find hose large enough in diameter, for cutting the new boots. Always bring a tape measure on a parts run....

First measurable snow here in the twin cities this morning, I have 4 inches. Weather is still mild, I'll take the upper 20s and 30s instead of the -20... makes life and the bills a little easier!
