Can someone tell me what is supposed to go there?

I had a serious question - I'm new to vehicle restoration and thought this was a place I could get some help. Guess I'll look somewhere else. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 2,644 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 2,644 | Dude, no disrespect intended. You haven't gotten any responses in quite a while and sometimes seeing several replies will pull people into the thread. Seems odd though that no one has jumped in. Sounds like a simple question to me.

Go to General Truck Talk (most frequented sub-forum) and post with the Subject "Anyone here have a '39 Chevy truck?" Then in the body of the post just say you're having a hard time finding out what goes in that hole.
Chances are very good that you'll get your answer there.
The problem with your question is that it technically could go in no less than three sub-forums - Interiors, Pant and Body, and Doors, none of which get anywhere near the amount of traffic as the General Truck Talk sub-forum.
Good luck. | | | | | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 18 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2010 Posts: 18 | Thanks - I really appreciate the suggestions!

The 1939 shop manual I ordered hasn't come in yet, so that might answer some questions.

I hope the rest of my problems are this easily solved! | | | | | Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 116 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 116 | Patience and persistence...... and the stovebolt can solve the problems lol
