Thanks for the suggestions.  I do have a fan already.  It does help but not
enought for the 95 degree heat here in Atlanta.  I did some investigation on
the marine electric water pumps and there seems to be quite a range in terms
of water volume flow.  Does anybody know what a typical automotive water
pump pushs in terms of gallons per minute?

Bill, my '39 is chassis #820, with a poorly behaving Meadows Gear Box.  Do
you know of any prewar Meadows or Moss boxes for sale??
