Re: Steering box mystery

Oh...makes perfect sense now. So I must have one '40 box and one '39 or earlier box. And all of the horn rods I have are pre- '40.

Re: '35 pickup hood hinge

Good info folks. Thanks. I took another look at my hinge. Half of it appears to be fastened from the factory with the exception of 2 rivets. I think I can use this as a pattern.

There is a guy on ebay that sells metal reconditioned fenders. He takes trades also and gives pretty good value for them. This is where I got mine. Just be sure your wallet is fat.
