Mike, I see one advantage to owning a 1939 or 1940 ford , you will have a picture of any part that I need.
Thank you for bailing so many of us out. You are a huge resorse of knowledge.

My shop instructor told us to put sealant only on the removable part to hold the gasket. Easier cleanup that way. That was over sixty years ago, don't know about today.
