  Just a little confusion on my part; the spare tire mount in the trunk. Whitewall facing inside well or outside. Also, the mount/storage procedure.



Thanks

  Great looking trunk.
The spare tire will be mounted with the valve stem accessable to check the air pressure.
The jack base should be inserted into the center of the rim and then the bracket and wing nut should hold all the parts together.

If the hold down bolt is not long enough, then the jack base will not fit and just attach the bracket across the rim center.

If I am incorrect, others will provide an update. Would go look at my 1949, but -- stored for the winter.
