I have a 1941 Chevrolet special deluxe steering wheel, also called a spinner wheel. The wheel is uneek to 1941 only, Chevy did make a similar spinner wheel in 1940 but they are different & may have different parts behind the horn button? Can anyone come up with some photos or any info on the horn parts for the 1941 Spinner steering wheel?
This is a great topic. I am setting myself up to start driving cost to cost buying & selling vintage car accessories at swap meets, & visiting all the car shows I have always wanted to go to. So I am re-building a small 2 horse trailer for my adventure, & I have been thinking? I need to make my trailer hard to steel or break into. Most of these ideas sound real good, like adding something on the roof to ID it from the sky & something on the sides & back to spot it going down the road.
What about having a strong 12v battery inside the trailer hooked to a loud town/country horn? There are ways to hook it to the back doors to sound the alarm if they are opened? Maybe a ground wire going to the frame so that if it is unhooked from the ball which will cut the ground, the horns will sound. Or maybe hooking it to a ball which will complete the ground & sound the horns. And having a mercury switch in the system will sound the horns when it's moved? Having a GPS system added to the trailer should locate it quick if it does get away? There must be a way to make a trailer safer from theft?
I am looking for both 1935 & 1936 teardrop style taillights, or parts for same. Stands, lenses, bezels, License plate brackets. housings or complete sets, left & right 1935 & early 1936... 1936 Pontiac...
I can't tell if a radio is in the dash or is that a chrome plate covering the radio/ashtray area of the dash? The price is a good lower end price for it.
The woodgrain doesn't look like the interior woodgrain I remember in either one of my 48 Chevys. Maybe it's just faded & lost itls clear coat. Or maybe different factories did different woodgrains?
Me being a Chevy guy, that info makes me like it even more. I will be doing more research on this vacuum tank. I didn't expect this tank to be back into the teens & 20s. I was guessing it to be something from the late 1940s/50s?
