Thank you Allenor Chris, appreciate the support. I sent you an email, hopefully you recieved it.
Love these old rides.........
Other than the steering wheel, if anyone has a set of 13 in vintage goodyear/bias tire, that would also help, the old blue streaks, without the blue...
I have 2 sets of wheels....
Thanks again.

On the left hand side of the rear x-member should be stamped a set of three numbers, preceded by AM and perhaps with one or two letters after.
Can you tell us what they are?
Assuming that the car doesn't have a chassis plate; if it does, could you attach a photo?
