Big gas leak when refueling my 1939 Conv. Sedan
I am getting a big fuel leak out of the top of my gas tank when refueling. It stops after a short time. It is not the filler pipe. My question is how do I remove the gas tank to see what is going on?

Re: 1935 convertible sedan and 35 plane
Interesting that the pace car at Indianapolis in 1935 was a Ford Convertible Sedan and Amelia Earhart was photographed in it. That may be part of the airplane story. Jim in San Jose.

Re: Temp gauge
There is a guy in Vermont, I think, that restored my original temp gauge. He did a very nice job for about $100. He only works on originals not repros. Jim in San Jose
