Re: Hagerty insurance

I've had insurance with Hagerty for over ten years. Had a major claim in '95. Adjuster was here in two days and I had a very reasonable check in hand within a week. Outstanding in my book.

Re: Oil pan removal, stock '35, in car-school me?

Re: 39 Door Panel, Handle & Escutcheons ???

Spring behind panel with the large diameter end to the panel. Masonite might be too hard and not able to flex outward from the spring pressure. Fiberboard or Luan are usually used for trim panels.

Re: 37 Ford front seat bracket problem

For my 2 cents worth...I'd split it in the middle, line up the floor holes, fill in the space in the middle and drill a new hole to attach the seat.

Re: All four rad. Hoses sucked tight!?

With a little searching I guess I found the problem. When a warm engine cools a vacuum is created and sucks the hoses in. Since I made my cap air tight and have one of Skip's valves on the overflow...

I think so Ken, but I did the points two winters ago...CRS. I did the body and interior since it ran so nice and now I'd like to drive it more. Thanks for the info on the points.

Re: Primer Sealer

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the DP primers are not an etching primer. DP is an epoxy primer designed to go over sanded and cleaned bare metal to give a great seal against corrosion.
