Re: Great Race
In June of 2022 the Great Race had an overnight stop in Duluth MN. It certainly was worth going to see the vehicles come in. I would recommend that if you have the opportunity to be there, do it.

Re: 36' Headlight Reflector Size
The glass lens fit out to the edge of the headlight buckets so yes, they will be larger in diameter than the reflectors that fit into the headlight buckets.

Re: Seat Cover for 1935 Ford Pickup
Another option.
Check with upolstery shops in your city. The little ones. You will be surprised what they have stored away.
It worked for me.

Re: 51 wagon rear signal lights
Yes, to have turn signals on your woodie, you need the second (passenger side) tail light assembly.
Or adapt individual lights to be the turn signal lights. (like what you have shown in your photos)

Re: Off topic. Remember TV show Columbo?

Re: 35/36 Pickup Seat Base
I thought the metal plate was to keep the holes in the wood from elongating over time. The seat is for a commercial vehicle and would get some abuse.

Re: 35/36 Pickup Seat Base
