I actually already have the horn, its a...

    1st time steering box grease. Can you suggest?

    I called up my local tractor store but no luck there either. If anybody can help me match one of these O'Reilly Auto Parts greases up, I would certainly appreciate the help! They had about a dozen but I was lost looking at them all.

    1st time steering box grease. Can you suggest?

    Speedometer cable frozen

    Does anybody else have a speedo that only works well at like 25+ mph? Mine bounces up and down below that speed. Tick. Tick. Tick. Sounds like a turn signal that is activated.

    8-track player

    Why not do a hidden Bluetooth receiver under the dash? That is what I am looking to put into my '39. Then you could play songs from your phone.
