Mike Markin New Member Registered: 03/14/08 Posts: 7	Can some one tell me if the vacumm cylinder on the axle of the Columbia 2 speed is painted black or left natural? Thanks

Phil Knapp Member Registered: 02/09/03 Posts: 790 Loc: Round Rock, Texas	I have salvaged several Columbia axles from Fords in junkyards, but that was nearly 50 years ago and I don't remember what color the vacuum canisters were. The canister on the Columbia I got from Dan Krehbiel about 10 years ago was already painted black like the rest of the axle. Dan probably did that. _________________________ Phil Knapp
