Thanks, I agree she looks fabulous. All I had to do was get it back to how it looked when new. Gordon Buehrig and his team did a wonderful job to begin with.
Everybody who has seen it in the past few days loves the Art Deco style and the incredible Cadet Grey paint plus the dark blue broadcloth interior and the dash board ....................... and the ..........................

Hi Scott, I thought I had replied. Things are a bit disorganized here at present.My wife has been suffering from cancer for many years and has further complications. I started the drawings weeks ago but stopped to concentrate on finishing the restoration of my Cord. I managed to get it registered two days ago and take it for some shake down runs.I will get back to completing the drawings soon ...................... and that's a promise.

Scott I am in the process of doing a set of drawings for other members.
The timber frame is fixed to the body with screws around the perimeter under the weather strip.
There are metal frames in the two lower corners.
What is your home email address?

Is anyone aware of reproduction wood framing for the trunk opening for 1936 Westchester or patterns of the wood pieces?  My truck lid is falling off and the wood may not be sufficient to copy.  Also, is the wood only held to the metal body by the screws around the opening under the weather strip?

Any info, advice or pictures would be appreciated.
