Re: removing a gauge cluster
A lot of people said to take the seat out so you can lay on the floor. One of the days I need to take the cluster out of my ‘41 coupe and replace it with one I got off eBay.

Re: 1940 Ford Zenith Radio
Capacitors go bad over a period of time, you’ll also need an antenna hooked up. Back in the day you could go to a drug store and test the vacuum tubes yourself. Do you have a schematic of the radio?
