Greetings to all and I hope you're all safe. I am working on a 1931 fender that needs a patch panel where the headlight bar is attached. I have the patches and they have indentations in them (dimples). Can anyone tell me if the front end of the patch tilts up or down? Any help is much appreciated.

Good morning, all. I am in the process of putting my 1930 coupe back on the road after 40 years storage outside in Michigan. After removing the body I found that the subrails were MIA. I ordered a new set of half subrails and when I received them I noticed that there were no hole locations...

I have two 29's, both with the same fan belt problem. When I install a new fan belt, everything is fine. Once the belt gets some mileage on it, it stretches a little. When I tighten it, the belt almost touuches the bottom radiator hose. I have taken to positioning the hose clamp directly under...

I have another problem I need help with. It's driving me nuts and I'm gonna relax now and ask for help. I have a '29 CCPU that is stock except for an alternator (6v) and fuse. After idling for 10-15 minutes, the fuse blows. Attempts to replace the fuse only end up with more blown fuses. I...

I have a 1930 coupe and I want to install rumble seat grab handles. Can anybody give me the exact location? I know that these "handles" were top rests for the roadster, but they also help in entering and exiting the rumble. Also, did any coupes originally have these handles? Thanks for the help.

I have been working on a 1929 chassis with a McCord R-5000 radiator. Can anybody give me information about this radiator? It seems to be clear with no obstructions. I guess my question is whether this is a decent radiator or should I look at replacing it. Thanks for the help.
