above the window molding is raised slightly and moved backward to open the
window and moved forward to close it.
Front door upper and rear door lower hinges are of the concealed type with a
tension spring incorporated to hold the door in the opened position. This will prevent
the doors from quickly closing when passengers are entering or leaving the car.
Door strikers and bumpers are of the adjustable type. In their normal setting the
door should raise about 1/32" as the door dovetail rides over the pillar striker (A), Fig.
56. The dovetail is stationary on the door, while the striker is adjustable for movement
up and down and sideways. When properly adjusted the doors should close as a slight
pressure is applied.
The door rubber bumpers at the top and bottom of the door openings are adjustable
sideways. They are correctly adjusted when they are compressed slightly as the door
is closed.
LUBRICATION—There are some parts
on the body that require periodic lubrica-
tion. When using engine oil be sure to wipe
off excess.
Door dovetail wicks and door striker
wicks (B), Fig. 56, should receive a few
drops of light engine oil every 1,000 miles.
Lower front door hinges should be lubri-
cated every 1,000 miles with a few drops of
light engine oil applied through the oil hole
on the inside, accessible when the door is
opened.
At intervals of 1,000 miles place a small
amount (about the size of a pea) of viscous
chassis lubricant on the spring contact surface (G) of the concealed hinge, see Figs. 54
and 55.
Also lubricate door striker pawls, (C), Fig. 56, every 1,000 miles, using a pencil
lubricant.
CARE OF THE FINISH
Your car is finished with high grade hand rubbed lacquer and with a reasonable
amount of care it should be possible to maintain its original luster for the life of the car.
Constant exposure to the elements—strong sunlight, rain, snow, and dust will cause the
finish to become dull. If at all possible it is good practice to park the car in the shade if
it is to remain in one place for any great length of time.
To remove grime and dirt the finish should be washed frequently and occasionally
it should also be polished.
