Thanks for the comeback on the clip. I figured it was at least as easy as my '39 Chrysler. This will be a good summer project here in the Northland. I bought this car from a kid whose grandfather bought it off of the government installation in Northern Idaho in 1948. It was an army ambulance and I figure it never turned a wheel during the war. The old guy never drove it and the grandson hauled it up the alcan on a trailer. I got it started in the early nineties. It has 20,000 on the odometer. When I did the brakes the springs were still bright color/coded and the shoes were like new. I've pulled all the u joints apart and they are perfect. A great old car that the folks here just love....
