I don’t know the answer to that but what you describe makes sense. It’s the kind of thing I’ll have to figure out when I get to that point on my...
Hey Texas57, I scrounged up a door latch and catch to help you figure this out. The starwheel does sit below the catch on the jamb, and there’s no...
Nope, sorry.
I just posted a bunch of stuff on Craigslist. Search the Sacramento CL for "PaddycakeFTW" to find all of my ads. Here's one to get you started:...

I scraped all of the old seam sealer out before I sprayed the whole body in epoxy primer. Now I’m starting to move toward paint and wondering what...
Thanks for the info guys, but I still can’t figure it out. Do I have to take the little lever off the back first? I’m guessing I do if the lock...
How do I remove the lock mechanism from the handle? How do I remove the flip cover from the handle? I guess that’s two questions....
Thanks!
I ended up heating and bending the two outermost brackets right near the (bumper) ends. That plus elongating the holes in the brackets on the...
Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I hogged out the bracket holes with my die grinder already. Didn’t think about smaller bolts, though. I’ll play around...
‘54 owners: My front bumper points upward after it wraps around the fenders. Is this normal? Do the brackets at the fenders really have to pull...

Sweet! Thanks, Jeff.
Where did you find new bolts and washers? I can't find my old ones anywhere....
Of course. I'll PM you.
Yeah, I do.
I’ll pm you about this.
Bump for updated parts list. I've been on vacation but am back and ready to aggressively get rid of this stuff. Let me know what you need. I...
This is quite the roller coaster ride. Glad to hear that the tranny is okay and that you likely won't be pulling the drivetrain out again....
PM sent.
Sent you an email.
The car is at my parents’ house. I will be there on Sunday grabbing a few parts, so I will take a close look at the areas you want to know about...
Jeff, is that what those pieces are?? I was wondering, because I've never had them on my car. When I brought those two pieces home with the...
I do, but the thin strip is something I'm keeping for myself. I have another one off my project car that I'll sell, but it has a dent in it....
I posted them above for you. If they're not what you want, let me know.
The gas cap is definitely for sale, thanks Jeff. So is the tank, though I don’t know what it looks like inside. It does not appear to have any...
