Re: What a wife!!!!
Been spending some garage time with the 37 ... man that feels like going home again. There are a lot of little things to take care of but the main issue is wiring! The past 78 years have not been kind to it ... brittle, cracked, and lots of bare spots. I found a guy about 12 - 15 miles from home that has every chevy part you can imagine for the 20's through the 40's. He sold me a complete wire harness. I am about halfway through installing it. Once that is done I have to fix the parking brake and she should be road worthy. I am looking for that shake down cruise.

For a shake down cruise you could cruise down here and take me for a ride. I'll even spring for lunch.NeonLeon wrote:Been spending some garage time with the 37 ... man that feels like going home again.

Re: What a wife!!!!
Thanks guys! We finished rewiring everything yesterday and when we tested it the darn light switch is bad. I'm going to pick one up tomorrow night. My plates are due this Friday so if we can get some decent weather we will take her for a spin. Parts wise all I think I need to find are wiper transmissions, but since they were an option back in 37 I don't have to have them. Ray ... you know how I suck at wiring ... that was a real chore.

Re: What a wife!!!!
When you take your wife out for a night on the town in that incredible car, I hope you dress for the part. That is no jeans and t shirt dating car. At least get a cool hat from the era.
