    You're welcome. Would love to see a picture of your car. I have a 1940 180 touring sedan as well. Mine is on the 148-inch wheelbase with factory air and overdrive.

    The "Pines" label above is what the metal tags look like. I don't know if the decal for the later cars was identical or not.

    Hi West, My car is also on the 148" wheel base. No radio, or A/C, or overdrive. Sold new from Bush-Morgan in Pasadena, California. Has been a California car it's whole life. Paint and interior have been re-done, most of the chrome is original. Hasn't been on the road for several years, so working on that, and detailing the engine compartment. I will attempt to add a photo. Thanks for your help, Rick

    That photo was meant for Flying's other post about underhood decals. The Pines decal (if you had one) would go directly on the Sylphon housing plate on the radiator. I think that what happened is that they all came off because of the heat.
