Re: '28/'29 Repro Cowl Patch Panels?
Thanks for all the info. I'll give Bert's a call tomorrow and check on some parts. I looked at their site, quite a bunch of stuff, I hadn't heard of them before.

Re: 1932 transmission shifter cover
It's very difficult to put a '32 slant tower top on a large synchro trans. I have a good '32 top with rails and forks I'd sell for $25.00 plus shipping if you really need (want) one.

Re: Transmission prices
