1937 LaSalle coupe

Hello everyone. Has anyone ordered hub cap emblems from McVeys for a '37 Cadillac or LaSalle? Mine would need to be restored and wondering how the quality is from McVeys? Also the center bumper plate is the same as the hub cap? Thanks... John Lehman... CLC# 26365...

John,

The emblems on the 37 LaSalle are not the same. The ones on the bumpers are different. They look the same but the hub cap ones when installed on the bumper chrome are angled wrong.

I think Bruce Berghoff still has some for the bumpers.

Svein,
I think you're looking for something that never existed on Cadillacs.  Other cars used them but not Cadillacs.

I agree with Bob.  Don't believe Cadillac/LaSalle used them.  My 1938 parts catalog doesn't show any.  Gene

Svein,

I agree with both Bob and Gene, but I installed the rubber boot.

Went to the guys who do all the 4 Wheel stuff and found one that would work. Screwed it to the floor and looks good and reduces the road noise in the interior of the car.

John.
I think you didnt understand.Its not the rubber boot on the floor.I have that,but the rubber boot out of the Trans.
That is the boot,to not get dust into the Trans,and the clutch arm is going int it. :-[
Can look kike this photo too,but its squered to fit the hole into Trans

Svein,

Checked the Master Parts List and as Bob stated they did not make one for the LaSalle or Cad of that year.

I see the photo is showing a Steel Rubber Part. My catalog with that number shows it as a boot, vacuum brake cylinder main rod. 1934-37. But diamensions on this part in my catalog are different.
