40 ford coupe
Have a 40 ford coupe I just purchased and am "going through it." What type of device is required to hold the spare tire in the trunk area? I think it is kind of a latch system, but the car has no such piece at this time. Car has a 383 stroker and is in fair shape- will be better when I am through with her. Thank you for any help re: spare tire holder. rjfRick

Here's a pic of where it mounts to a stud on the bracing.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

40 ford
thanks, uncle bob for info on the spare tire mount system. I suppose I can drill through the brace and stick a stud and bolt to hold the tire? I thought there was a hold down type of latch at one time, but have not seen any original 40 trunks lately- Thanks again RickRick
