  • Need Your Help with My History Document
  • I think the best way to do this is to go year by year. I've made a change about the aluminum hood. But what about the grill? and the feeze plugs? This is what I have for the year 1939. Tell me if there is a problem, something missing, or something wrong please.

    "1939 Serial number 9N1 - 9N10275
    Painted dark forest gray.
    First 800 models had cast aluminum hood and grille, horizontal spokes in grille.
    Rear axle hubs smooth in center.
    Front radius rods were I-beam type.
    Front spindle grease fittings were on the forward side.
    Fenders have 2 crease bars.
    Left and right brake pedals are identical and interchangeable.
    steering box, battery holder, transmission covers, and instrument panel are cast aluminum.
    Starter button and key switch are on the dash.
    Steering wheel was a 4-spoke truck type.
    Hood side panels are smooth (no mounting holes).
    "

    Thanks

  • Dan.......I agree that we need to do this but I think there are several issues we need to discuss before you put it in the history section.Since there were several diff changes on the 9ns, I think we need to break it down a little further.I would start with 1-4000,then 4000-to 10300[Mr.Brocks numbers].I think this would be more helpful than putting all 39's under a blanket.So, I'll go to the regular forum page and begin.As we discuss and reach a happy median,you can build the info into the history page.What do you think? don b

  • Re: Using Mr. Brocks Numbers
  • Sounds like a good idea to me. I do know who Mr. Brock is but I don't know the numbers. I'll start like you say with 9N-001 to 9N4000 and I'll need some guidance but will continue from there.
