I especially liked the 'chrome' spokes <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_surprised.gif" alt="" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o -->

Cool, thanks! That is a help.
It seems my 1933 Salon may have been some what of a transition year or something. So far compared to my 31 my 33 has hydraulic brakes, different steering box and a 8-105 rather than an 8-101 which I think would have been normal for a 33 to come with.
I am also trying to get to figure out if the 33 would have had a bolt on wire wheel option. I have to look at my axle next to see if it is 33, are there numbers or indicators I should look for on the axle?

The carburetor is not Auburn. Attached, is a correct EE1; EXCEPT when they were delivered from Bendix they were New Jersey yellow zinc di-chromate.
No attachment because it received a HTTP error. Tom is working on it !

This is a re-body and it still has all of the metal fenders and just the body and doors are fiberglass. I have been trying to figure out what it was before the re-body It was advertised as a 8-101 but it is a Salon body and it has bolt on wheels and hydraulic brakes.
So does this box appear to be a Salon style box? What years would be compatible?

but if you need some pieces, send me a message. (Removing the steering assembly can be a challenge, I believe)

Any ideas on the symptom I am describing or if anyone has a replacement box, used box or parts available?
Thanks,
