Re: Conversation with a WWII Veteran
V8: Sadly, you are so correct. When I was teaching high school the students didn't remember Dec. 7 but, they did remember April 21st, National Weed Day.

Re: 1940 front tack under dash
Thanks "Kube". I didn't realize there really was a maroon and a tan. For some reason, I asked Lebaron-Bonney to make mine a maroon color as the first one they sent me was tan back in 1988. Pure...

Re: 1940 front tack under dash

Re: 49 Mercury hood binding problems
Joey, Be sure and check the sheet metal on the top inside of the fender where the springs mount. Sometimes that area develops cracks from years of stressful movement.

Re: 49Merc/Tesla running gear
Wonder if the owner can claim an energy tax savings with the IRS?
Hope that's not the future if GREEN people get their way.

Re: 8ba generator mount modifications
The water pumps on the engine above are 1951 Mercury.
Your engine might have a 4 inch crank.
Plus, the intake manifold has 4 bolts for the carb like mercury had.
8BA's used the 3 bolt carb.
