  1. So I'm restricted to the Plymouth caps? Will the 48 cap fit my 52 wheel?
  2. Has anyone used after market center caps on there factory 52 wheels? I was looking at the Baby moon bullet caps but they don't fit. Need suggestions on what fits on to the wheels with the spring type holders
  3. Hey guys, has anyone used big Jim's fender skirts before? I see on the website they have some listed for a 51 Plymouth which I assume is the same as my 52. I would have liked to use agape but they won't ship to NZ. Cheers
  4. Cheers John, that's the way I have decided to go, for the same reason. Would be annoying to rebuild the fuel pump only to find it's in the way when I change manifolds. Only issue I can see is finding somewhere at the back to mount the fuel pump. As far as I'm aware the pump should be lower than the tank?
  5. I see companies like rock auto sell a whole new pump. Are they worth while or am I best to get a seal kit for the one I have?
  6. For those of you who have dual or even triple carbs, are you running the factory fuel pump or have you upgraded to electric? My fuel pump is starting to seep fuel out and I'm wondering if it's worth replacing as I am planning on upgrading the manifold shortly. Thanks
  7. Cheers Andy. What external oil filter is that? Looks cool
  8. Thanks just what I wanted to hear. To be fair it probably doesn't matter what I put in it as it all dribbles out pretty quickly haha
  9. Can someone please tell me where to top up the gearbox oil on my 52 cranbrook 3 speed? And do I fill to the top? My trans has got quite a leak so I figured I better top it up again. (I know I should fix the leak haha I'll get to that another day)
  10. Cheers Andy, was hoping to find a match for the one I have so I can order a dual carb manifold. I suppose I could find 2 holden carbs if that is easier
  11. Yeah mate I'm a fair way away haha. Cheers for the offer tho
  12. Yep not a happy chap. To be fair maybe I tried to cut some costs and sent the shaft through my friends work (who is a truck engineer) to a company they use for their custom truck drive shafts. Lesson learned I guess
  13. So I got pissed off and went and picked my driveshaft up today. They basically handed me back some scrap metal. Looks like I'm getting a whole new shaft made up. Grrr
  14. Can anyone tell me what carb I would have on my 52 Cranbrook? I know it's a Carter but is it an el-1? I have found another for sale locally that looks the same but the numbers stamped into it are different. Thanks
  15. The driveshaft hasn't been put in the car yet it's still in the shop trying to be balanced. They are suggesting putting a slip yoke up front but they are saying that it will be expensive to do. To the tune of around $500 just for the slip yoke
