Re: what was your first car and how much did you pay

My first car was a 1954 Olds 88 4dr. I paid $325.00 for it. It really did belong to a little old lady who's family would no longer allow her to drive. This was in 1964.

Re: Master Cylinder

I had the same problem on my 49. Used two washers instead of one and stopped the leak.

Re: 56 Zephyr start Part 2. Can we actually get it to run?

Hello cooch. Interested in the picture of the flying red horse car. Rode in one exactly like that when my dad worked for Firestone in Indiana.

Re: Trunk Latch Problem

My 49 coupe has that same hole. I just went out and looked and also tried a small pick through the hole but there is a panel behind it and will not allow it to move the latch.
