Just looking at your earlier posts and was wondering what mounts in the four holes in back of the center of the seat above the package tray and has one larger hole above the four holes? I'm thinking it could be an interior light or a light for the rumble seat area?

God Bless You, it was an uphill battle but persistance paid off, beautiful car and beautiful restoration. Best of health.

Yes, I was thinking on doing that, just drill another hole, but just wanted to double check if the single stud version mounted elsewhere. The Merritt description is a little misleading "Rebound Bumper Lower". it's the "lower" in the description that is a little confusing. Thanks

While at Hershey several years ago I purchased from a vendor what I thought was the front coil spring bumper for a 37-120 (#333035) and the vendor confirmed that it was. After removing the coil springs on my 37-120 this weekend, the upper rubber bumper has three studs in the bumper. The set I purchased at Hershey has only one stud in the center of the rubber bumper. I see Max Merritt has this single stud bumper #333035 listed as "Rebound Bumper Lower 1935-1939" My question is, where does this "rebound bumper lower" go? I see Steele rubber does sell the three stud bumper but does the single stud bumper just go on certain models? I've searched in the manuals I have and didn't find any info.? See Photo

I wonder if there would be an interest in having replacement glass date coded as the original glass was? I saved my original glass which I replaced and this is what the date code looked like on my 37 "120"

Thanks for the info, that sounds like a great idea, make a plate to replace the Stromberg choke setup and install a connection to hook up to the Carter carb. Possibly the cover in the parts manual @ 9.106 part number 320443 that HH56 mentions could be available thru one the the Packard parts vendors? The Stromberg EE-14 carb. I currently have I believe is a 1936 vintage as it does not have a connection for a vacuum advance. Thus I decided to use the Carter carb. and other responders to this question seem to prefer the Carter. I guess I could also install a hand choke if things don't work out.

I've decided to send out my Carter WD-O carb. casting #367 for a rebuild. The linkage connects correctly and the air cleaner fits the carb. The question I have now is where does the sensing line from the automatic choke connect to? I see no place to connect it to on the exhaust manifold?

Since I probably can't afford the fuel injection setup in the modification forum, what are opinions on using a Stromberg EE-14 or a Carter WD-O Carb.? I have two Carter WD-O's both in decent shape, one has a casting number of 367 and the other looks like an older rebuild has a casting number of 360. In the Dar Kuehl manual he mentions the Carter should be a 366S but I see no reason why either of the two I have wouldn't work? My Stromberg EE-14 also looks like an older rebuild but I don't see where the vacuum advance would connect, is there suppose to be a metal plate under the carb. with a connection for the vacuum advance? I also need the automatic choke connecting rod part number 302632 for the stromberg EE-14. So the question is whats the better carb. to use Carter or Stromberg?
Question #2, The fuel pump vacuum pump assembly, I'm not sure what gets connected to the left side of the pump connection or the right side of the pump connection, does the right side go to the windshield wiper tube? The car is currently not running I'm just trying to connect things up. The car was a half disassembled basket case when I purchased it and nothing was ever marked. I'm also going to replace the gas line from the tank to fuel pump, looks to me like the old gas line is 1/4 ID and 5/16 OD and about 12' long. I went to the local auto parts store and the best they could do was two 6' brake lines, I prefer to use one staight line with no connections. I looked at summit racing for what they have available but was wondering if anybody else has replaced this line and what they used ??

I agree 100%, I've purchased parts from John before and he is AAAAAAAAA++++++++++, I check with him first when I need something and his prices are very fair.

Just a suggestion, while you have the vent windows out, I would replace the die cast gears in the crank handle mechanism. They don't hold up and are usually stripped,John Ulrich sells an excellent replacement.
