The ‘46 models often had parts from prior years because the demand was beyond production capability. My ‘46 was born in June, months after the war ended. Yet it had, for example, a leather gas tank grommet. Rubber was still in short supply. There are many other examples that others have reported over the years.
I have a few parts left over from the restoration of my ‘46. Let me know what you might need. I’m certain we can work out a mutually acceptable deal.
