There are a few things on my 1936 car people ask me what are they for, I have my ideas but don't know for sure - do you know?

1) What is the little handle on the radiator cap for? Its not a pressure release, it does nothing?

2) What is the rope handle that runs the length on the backside of the front seat for?

3) What is the rear window shade for? No its not to going parking, I don't think Henry was thinking of that.

4) My car has a cigarette lighter (not hooked up) did these cars come standard with a lighter or was this an add on?

5) Since I have a radio and no front ashtray, was there another place an ashtray should be in the front?
