Re: A contribution from the wife...
You didn't say if you bought her a new frosting piping bag. I'm sure she would not want to reuse that one.

Re: Radial Tires
Be SURE to check the height of the Coker tires as compared to the ones you currently have.

Re: '36 Cabriolet with an "18-F" prefix
Do the Australian chassis number, being RHD, have the "F" in them?
Interesting to see data plates from around the world. Would be fun to see others as well.
Thanks everyone.

Re: '36 Cabriolet with an "18-F" prefix
Just wondering if "F" is for Right Hand Drive or for "Foreign" Hearing from someone in a Left Hand Drive country with a car known to be original to that country would be appreciated.
