Your photo of the dash and the front bumper sure make me miss my '49!

That wood grain was so beautiful!

 

I sold the 49 because it had a bad memory for me.

It had sat for about a year unused with a bad bearing in the transmission.

My Uncle came back from the Air Force with no money in his pocket.

So I thought I'd gift him the car. I went out and got a transmission from a wrecking yard and I was under the car installing it when the phone call came that he had had a heart attack and died. After that I had a hard time even looking at that car. Selling it was a bad move on my part. The buyer abused the car and abandoned it. So my emotions are torn two ways. Thanks for taking such good care of your's!
