The horn wire which runs through the steering column was broken. I ran a jumper from the connection attached to the relay and horns work perfectly. The question I have is regarding the broken wire coming out of the steering box. Do I have to remove the four bolts and plate (on the box) to get that wire loose (out)?

I do need some rubber door sills. Can you send me his info

I purchased a 1948 Special Deluxe convertible from an estate in Kentucky. I wasn’t able to speak to anyone in the family but I did have a phone conversation with the neighbor. The gentleman that owned the car for 30 years was a retired Air Force officer and had several old cars. I had the car trailered to me in Texas. It’s in great shape and has 71,000 original miles. I’ve given it a tune up, replaced the plugs and wires, change the oil and gave her a good cleaning. I have to say the forum was a great reference. I installed NGK plugs and put in straight 30 oil. A hot rod shop that’s close to my house told me I need to put an additive (zinc) in the oil. Have any of you done this? He also said I need to add a lead additive to the gas. Thoughts?
