  1. Have had 2 rebuilt clutches installed, both have been negative results, clutch chatters, etc. Does anyone know of someplace to obtain a smooth clutch? Is there a later year that would fit and work better? I've a 39 model 41, which we put a 68 camero clutch in and works great, very positive, no chatter. What will work, thanks.

  9. I've a 1939 buick Radio, working condition, has had recent work on it, probabley needs new dial plate to be perfect. I own 2 39 buicks, one is model 41 and the other is model 61c 4dr convert. origional antena was piece of crap, I bought a side mount from Bob's Automobilia and forgot about running board mount. the information I recieved on running board antennas was when they were perfect, they were awful. I heard there was someone in Redlands, Ca that remanufactured the wireing, at cost of $295.00. Can't remember the name. Radios that work run 395.00 and up. Let me know if interested.
