Re: '36 3 Window Coupe
Gorgeous 36 3 window coupe! Looks like there's an electric cooling fan stuffed in there also. Great for a hot day parade.

Re: Optima 6 volt battery
For what it's worth, I got my Optima 6v red top from Summit at a decent price and delivery. Very happy with it. I had to make a bracket for it's odd shape but it sits under the floor pan anyway.

Different rear drums
So, I pulled the rear drums off to get at the leaky wheel cylinder(s) and found a few differences. I like the one on the left better. Is this a later design or from another model vehicle?
