Re: 1936 driver side door latch
Thanks, I can see it. You did good to get a picture, I can’t even see with my flashlight. Dropping the wife off at the craft show then headed home to do some of my own crafting. Thanks

Re: 1936 driver side door latch
Thanks, where exactly did you rest the end of the coil? Will it find its sweet spot on its own? Like.. hey I didn’t pop out! This is it!

Re: 1936 starter button HOT!
Thanks, for this answer. I disconnected battery roadside, new button will be here today. Hope I didn’t do something stupid to cause this, like resting my foot on the button. Greg

Re: Carb questions

Re: Critique this '34
Thanks for confirming the color. I was sure that was it, late April color added I believe. The car has several car show decals on the firewall from the early 80’s. I think that was when it was redone.
