Re: transmission case lube
Doesn't this defeat the purpose of the oil slinger? It would make sense on open drive transmissions with a rear seal to keep oil within the trans but lubricate the speedo gears.

On a 33/34 car, the roof was not one stamping. The front cowl ended about where your weld is. But on the 33, it was leaded together. Looks like on the 35 they went to welding the front and back...
