Is that Tom Mix bar named for the early Western movie star? He died in a car wreck in 1940 in which a metal suitcase in his backseat of his Cord Phaeton struck him in the head and broke his neck.

Geez... better keep it.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
