Thanks for the confirmation Mal!

So I found this discussion topic and Mal posted these specs. I am fairly certain this matches my 1937 120C, per the decoder. 282 (*straight 8)

Is there a specific torque level to apply when reassembling?

Ok. Thanks for input.

Able to get over to the car this weekend to do a couple of things.

Got the rear bumper painted with the first coat. Second coat should clean it up nice.

Before



After



Also put on the air cleaner. I got the support on the cleaner, but now I am questioning the placement on the block. Looks like i will need to remove the nut that is also holding the support for the horn. Before I do, i want to confirm, this is ok, and I am not going to start a sequence of things, and put something into an "imbalance"?

Do I have any concerns if I loosen the nut and attach the support arm?

ok. thanks all. Will go Hex bolt Washer and a grommet.

Cheers

So I should be able to remove the base/bottom of the cleaner to be able to get a nut on the backside? Did not want to try and force it off, if it was not intended to be removed

I am preparing the new air cleaner I got (thanks for the guidance Ross!) and looking to attach the support bracket to the cleaner.

Is it just a matter of threading the bolt into the support with washers and then into the air cleaner? Or does the cleaner come apart, so i can insert a bolt coming out and attach with a nut? Its refurbished, so i can't tell if it is able to come apart or not, as all the potential seam look to be solid, but it may just be paint?

Thoughts appreciated as always!

Spent some time painting. Took the guards and the rear name plate off before storage and purchased the hood props from San Diego Packard. Added a non skid pad to the prop where hood will sit to avoid scratches. Cleaned them up best I could. Keeping the patina.
Merry Christmas!

Thanks Howard! Will keep as reference if needed.
