Well, this maybe a long shot, but I am looking for this part:




It is referred to as a Dove Tail (Female) and is unique to many of the front doors on convertibles from 1936 to 1941. They are the same, left or right. The one in my passenger door has a broken retainer tab, which was a simple bent-over tab in the metal shell. With that broken, the upper "jaw" falls too far down, and the corresponding triangle doo dad (Dove Tail - Male) on the door slams into it, preventing the door from closing. I've removed the triangle for now to allow the door to close, but I'd like to find a replacement before I try to jury-rig a fix on an already brittle part.

Here are the models this part fits:




If you happen to have one available, please let me know.

Thanks!

I also did a mass search and replace on the database to update any other stored links from http to https. This should fix any issues with fussy browsers reporting insecure page resources.

Fixed issue when using the search and clicking on a link in the Service Index results: either the link won't open, or it reports that the file could not be downloaded securely. The search code was trying to serve the PDF files with an http address instead of https, which is a cross-security violation. The code has been fixed, and this should no longer be an issue.

Can someone help with pictures and measurements for a 1937 6 cyl crankcase breather tube?

I've resigned myself to the idea that I'll have to make one, considering I can't seem to find one for my car. Any help with pictures, measurements (or a source to find one) would be greatly appreciated.

I ended up returning my Steel Rubber Pads, and went with Metro. The back side forms with the contour of the Running Boards. Less work.

I use these headlights which work for both 6v and 12v cars and are polarity insensitive. They look period-correct too with no dimming down at idle as conventional bulbs to.

Confirmed what Scott said! The park lights are obviously amber,
; the tail lights are red LEDs (rather than white). Another user told me the white light would "overpower" the lens. Took that advice; no regrets!

Another little project done. The finish on the rear window deck was wiping off, so I gave it a light sanding and painted it. I think the colour/finish is pretty close to original as it's much the same as the portion that was under the speaker cover.

Thank you!

The youtube short posted by Joe has a caption that indicates his parts came from a place called LEDlights.com. A quick trip around their site shows that both lights and 6V+ flashers are available.
