any idea what this is. it came with my phaeton and i don't recognize it. based on the paint I'm assuming it's chassis related. don't see it in the v8 club book either.

36 phaeton ash tray
What does the ash tray retainer for the 36 phaeton look like?
Is it a bracket like the 35 spinner or just two screws through the face into?
Pics would be awesome
Thanks

40 brake question
Hi all.
My 36 has been swapped over to later juice brakes. There are castle nuts on the backing plates. Are they supposed to be individually secured with cutter keys or safety wire?
