I'm using air tools 8 hours a day, day after day doing the paint on the
wrapper. I drove up to the Harbor Freight store and bought a $24.95 air
file, a $19.95 D-A and a $19.95 spray gun. (For primer) I figure if I
burn them up, I'll just swap for new ones under the 90 day ...

   I figured I'd better start generating some interest on this one a
bit early based on what he has in the car. <g> Pix to follow in a few
days.  Jim's other cars were very, very nice, so I expect this one will
be too.

I still have the old gas tank out of my 56 Hawk.  It has some pin hole leaks
and is pretty cruddy inside, but could probably be fixed up.  Is there a
market for these or should I junk it?

  I'm getting better at it though. <g> I figured I'd save to 3-4 K to
strip and paint the green wrapper and I'm getting the hang of it. The
key seems to be patience, I've spent maybe 6 hours on the dent lid. It
seems even a straight car that's never been painted still needs lot ...

Saturday I noted that my Gravely tractor was leaking oil pretty badly at the
oil filter (Kohler twin).  I tried tightening it a little and made it worse,
so I decided to go ahead and change the oil and filter even though it only
had 20 hours since the previous change.  The filter ...

Anyone know the wheelbase and overall
length (bumper to bumper) for a 1940 Champion
2 Door Sedan. Got a friend who may have a line
on one, but he wonders how "big" a car they are.

ways?
Thanks

hardware, etc.  I couldn't find it in the parts book, not listed, no
drawing.  This is a heavy cardboard pad that goes inside the cab ...
