Not softskin as such: a 1940 Chev sedan question

[Matt Austin]

I've been doing an inventory and have almost everything, although there'll be some parts I'll need to replace. At this stage, the only obvious things I'm missing are the worst motors and wipers, the upper left hand front passenger door hinge assembly and the boot hinges.

I haven't been able to scrub the area of the chassis to find the chassis number, but for to find something soon. I've cleaned the appropriate part of the engine and the attached pic shows the engine number, R2777077, which the books tell me is a 1940 engine, so possibly the original. Mike, I don't know if that's any help without the chassis number, but I'll keep looking.

The fun continues! Tony, thanks for the colour clarification, I'll get some clear pics.

Cheers,
Matt
