Does anyone out there have some pictures of their spare tire cover? 37 or 38? My body guy says that he has mine mounted, but some of you say that the latches are in the 8 and 4 position. Mine are in the 10 and 2 position. I really need help

I don't see the reply that I thought I posted, so will try again. Please excuse me if this appears twice...

On my 1937 sport coupe, the latches are at the 4 and 8 o'clock positions. Other cars that I have seen also have latches in these locations.
I think the locking arms have been changed and are not the original appearance, but the U shaped bracket and the latch location in the pictures are correct for 1937-38 spare tire covers.

I sent you a set of drawings showing the differences between 36 and 37/38. Think you have a 36.
