My '38 Dodge Business Coupe had the weatherstrip gone from it when I bought it years ago so, I have mainly driven it in fair weather. I purchased new weatherstrip for the doors (top and bottom strip) but, I cannot locate any instructions, illustrations, or photos for proper cut, fit, and placement for the weatherstrip. Also, I was informed that the strip was only on the top of the doors and at the bottom of the doors until '39 when they put it all around the doors to help the leak problems and wondered if the '39 weatherstrip (kit?) would work for the '38? or if there was an alternative way to weatherstrip around the doors completely or in between the original style strip to help with water and wind.The car is pretty much all stock and a daily driver (not a show car) so, I am really not too concerned about the weatherstrip being exactly what is was looking more for the practicality and keep the weather out of the car. Any help, recommendations, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you sincerely, John

I followed the one wire that went to that post and it led to the battery terminal on the Voltage regulator???

Hi all, I am looking for a more clear wiring diagram or schematic for the Ammeter connections in the instrument cluster of my '38 Dodge pickup. This Ammeter in my 3 contact posts. One should be battery in, one should be battery out I think but, there is one more that I am not sure of. The Ammeter has a fixed fuse holder that breakes the connection from 1 to the 3rd post. My guess is that would be the post that goes to the rest of the electrical but, again not sure. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, John
