While sorting out the spare parts for my '57 Dodge restoration I noticed something odd with a fuel/ammeter pod - take a good look at the one in the middle in this photo. Any idea how that could happen? Maybe as suggested by the seller of the car to me, that one was assembled on a Friday or Monday?

Easy to explain... the gauges were accidently installed upside down so rather then remount both gauges they just flipped the whole assembly over and installed it.

The LCBO must have had a sale on Molson products in Windsor that week. I wonder what a case of Molson Canadian cost in 1957. Darn near $29.00 now.... Little wonder I drink off brand beer these days. Speaking of which.....
