I'm in Mass and had to correct the Title for my 1947 Super. The VIN was listed as the Engine number (as was common way back ). I changed it to the actual chassis VIN. I went to the DMV and they gave me an application. I filled in an explanation of what information I wanted to change on the Title. The DMV described the procedure to get the Title officially changed. I brought the car to the local Police Department for verification of my information, and submitted the papers to the DMV. At the time I could walk into the DMV (pre-Covid). I think the young Police officer omitted his Badge Num

Ford made a '37 Club Coupe Convertible also. Saw one in an old movie. (Man Behind the Mask-Peter Lorre-circa 1939). Lovely car. Never seen one in person.

Thanks Much. If I find a gravel guard I'll ring you up.

Thanks, I think they stopped making these repro units, so if you have one it would really help. Any condition will be useful as they can be rebuilt. Thanks again, Pete B

On your '47, I believe the shiny stainless steel piece is crimped onto the "Gravel Guard" or "Stone Guard" panel that bolts on to the rear fender. So the part actually consists of the 2 pieces attached. I also think the 2-door Sedanette uses the same part. FYI...I'm looking for the power-top control valve, under the dash for the same car (help ?). Good luck....great car !

I’m replacing the seat back pull cords ("robe cords") on my 47 Buick. I have the bezels but the cords are not installed. I believe the front seat-back cushions need to be removed to access the inside of the seat-back metal frame? Problem is...... I'm not smart enough to see how the seat cushion comes apart from the seat-back assembly? Does anyone know how the front seat-back upholstery / spring assembly is removed to access the seat-back metal frame? Also how does the cord chain get attached to the seat-back metal frame? Please help before I do some damage. Any info is appreciated. Thanks
