Could you post the link again, please. It may have disappeared in the update. Also, I did find bezels, but looking closer it is for convertibles. Do the actual bezels on the convertible version match the one on closed cars. I don't know where it is mounted on a convertible to compare the...

Thank you! Now I’m on the hunt for a bezel. Am I correct in thinking it pinches the headliner between it and the mount, with the bezel clipping into the mounting hole?

Ok, that answers mine. My tracks are the top ones in the picture.

Thank you! That’s a relief. Seems like replacement reinforcement plates are rare as hen’s teeth.

‘39 Coupe

Does anyone have a picture they could share of how the wiper motor switch comes out of the headliner? Thanks!

I've been looking online and became aware of the existence of anchor brackets for mounting the seat track to the floor. Did these exist on a 1939 Coupe? Were they welded or bolted to the floor? Does anyone have a picture of them in case I have to re-create them. I don't see that they are...

I’m looking for the glass lens out of the 1939 or 1938 Deklite trunk handle base. Please message me if you have one you’d part with. Thanks!

I am looking for the center support brace that connects the package tray to the middle floor pan next to the drive train tunnel arch.

It's actually a 1939 Standard Coupe, but the seat is from a '40 according to the tin manufacturing tags that are still on them. Thank you for the measurements Ken.

No, thank you. I’m doing a coupe with only the split front seat

I'm doing my own upholstery and was wondering if anyone knows the finished dimensions of the seat bottom. Basically, what is the measurement from the frame base to the cushioned top so I can make sure the springs are properly compressed in the front and the back. Thanks!

B&S: Thank you! That makes me feel better. I’ll work the mixture screws like you say. I’m going to change the oil. Anything I should be on the lookout for?

B&S: I have followed your instructions and I think I have it balanced nicely. Unisyn matches at increased rpms and idle, no dripping fuel at idle or off idle, small amount of starter fluid passed over the carbs does not bog or rev it. However, the mix is still rich. Spark plugs are black...

B&S: Thanks for the details! I'll give that a try. I'm still not understanding what caused the change from before I changed the PVs. The airflows were very close to each other during that tune, and now one carb sounds like a jet and the other barely sucks my hand in when I cover it.
