Steve Braverman Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 How about making the ends for the trim strips? They are almost always missing, mine are. My '32 has so much oil coating the bottom of the car, that the the running boards will never rust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikewest729 Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Steve Jeff has them made I also have a pattern if needed.When i picked your car up in Snow Shoe PA it hadnt run in years.I oiled er up and put a batery in it and it ran fine with the exception of a rod knock.It leaked oil like hell then Its a great car ...I drove it a bit before longely got it. Let me know if you cant get the ends.MIKE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Mike, I didn't know you owned my car. Bill must have fixed the rod knock, because that's the one problem it doesn't have now. I plan on freshening up the engine with a ring and valve job, and maybe throwing a set of rod bearings in for good measure if it needs them. (I still have that set of rods I bought from you on ebay last year.)It runs so good, I hate to mess with it, but the oil leaks and the blue smoke is getting a little embarrasing. This winter I want to re-wire it as the wiring is getting scary and dangerous. The headlights and horn only work sometimes. I really want to get my Olympic convertible done before I tear this one apart, but I need to keep it safe and roadworthy.I didn't know Jeff had the ends, I'll get a set from him at the Trek. I hope he gets hubcaps made soon too. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
