There is no set screw in the knob. its the brass skin over the captive "nut" bezel that is the problem. Snap ring pliers are about as close to the proper tool as your gonna get. its those two access points where you are targeting magic potions. and the backside of the dash if you can see/get to the backside.
Not easy, often stuck, which is why bobJ even drafted remaking the knob/bezel/shaft. Wish he did. He'd sell about 2 a year, no doubt making millions$$$. I'm asked for replacement knobs ALL the time....Once I had a tool made better than snap ring pliers, crude, but it worked, just cut a slice in a piece of cheap steel, ground it and bent two tips. Used it a couple times, lent it out and never saw it again... DAF

i will supply the short trim piece after the back of the hood and the ornament. You need the center hood stainless, I definitely do NOT have.
As for the pivot, i think you can remove the ball studs and use your rod with a pin clip? i will look again for the vertical rod.... Have found a friend with the center hood stainless moulding...call me tomorrow...

agree with Howard...most likely headlight relay to lower amperage going through headlight switch.

Rock - I can answer, sort of. negative on using Vintiques wheels, unless you want to fabricate some sort of hubcap. As you are resto-rodding, there are a couple, limited, options for wheels, depending on axles and front suspension setups you choose. Call me at your convenience, evenings best.

Whether you have a convertible coupe with rollup windows, or a true roadster=side curtains only, the referral is solely to Penn-Dutch restorations....

Be clear the far bigger$$$ risk is cracking the aluminum timing cover.
Best I can offer is an "armchair prayer" that the gods of patience and care shine upon your dilemma.

VERY common seepage point. Simple careful clean/prep/good gasket/sealer will fix.
