  1. Was wondering where people are getting the straight radiator hose for a stock engine ? what i have been finding is like a million dollars a foot ?
  2. Is there anyone here that lives in Atlanta,Ga. near Roswell Rd. exit off 285 ? Thanx Chance
  3. Finally scored the Second super rare Dodge Wayfarer Convertible Sport about front fender emblem . It only took me 20 years to find them both were on EBAY years apart this one only cost me 10.00 shipped , that is super cheap worth a lot more. I have several sets of the normal Wayfarer fender emblems but these are really scarce. Just gotta keep looking !
  4. I painted my Rolls Royce in high school around 1929 with rattle cans looked like a million dollars then and still does 86 years later .some people can do a better job with rattle cans than others with high dollar equipment just gotta know how to do it . obviously most don't , paint is paint some just feel better paying the inflated prices .
  5. Get real and quit smoking your old sock`s NEW CARZ have always been very shiny all the way back to the CHARIOT DAYZ !!!
  6. THE question shouldn`t be why were they still building WOODEN cars in the 40`s , the question should be why did they stop building wooden cars ? It`s just like Rock n Roll & Girl`s u just don`t get it !
  7. DUCT TAPE , SUPER GLUE , BAILING WIRE AND A GOLF TEE , YEA THAT WOULD DO IT .
  8. In 1949 3,433 Plymouth Woodie's were built about 30 or so are known to exist , may be a few more stashed away but couldn't be to many .
  9. Had a 52 Wayfarer Coupe I drove for years traded it a few years back . Still have 2 Wayfarer convertibles a 49 & a 50 hopefully will have them rolling down the road in the near future , great looking cars !
  10. Was sad to hear the news i knew him for years he was a funny man ,he use to stop in the Nashville Palace where i worked , ever time he was on the OPRY which was just about ever week i owned one of his CADILLAC`S for a while . and a while back i got him to sign one of his 78`s for me . RIP OLD FRIEND .
  11. i looked up all the different #`s and vendors lot`s of conflicting info , prices all over the board really from 10.00 to over 100.00 each crazy .... some have all 4 different , some have inner`s the same outer`s the same , others say outer R & L Inner the same , L outer & R inner the same , i`m guessing RH thread LH thread . has anyone actually bought any and replaced any ? or know for sure what the correct answer is ?
  12. Anybody have the parts number for the tie rod ends and are the R outer and L inner the same and L outer and R inner the same ? any info on this would be great .
  13. I have seen a few really fat bulls that had teats !
  14. Old age is when you walk past a graveyard and 2 guys start chasing you with a shovel ....
  15. tim the tire leans in on and off the ground just more off and don after 50 years of working on 1000`s of cars and owning just about as many some worth more than your house no i have never jacked a car up by the frame --Remaining post deleted by moderator--
  16. it doesn`t lean in as much when on the ground so maybe the camber is off , maybe i should have a alignment shop check it out and go from there . thanx
  17. i guess those bushings could be the problem ? didn`t have the time to get to far into it . i jacked up the front end to try and work on the play in my steering thats when i noticed it leaning in , i put a level next to the tire and it was leaning in at the top a little over 2" . with the tires off the ground i turned the wheel back and fourth then turned it half way the wheel was in the right spot with the tires straight a head , but 3 to 4 inches of play both ways . i tightened the screw on the steering box earlier before that i had about 8" play to the right . when i am driving down the road the center of the wheel goes to the right about 8" it point`s to the upper right corner of the wind shield . it has more play to the right than the left .. the car does not shake or shimmy at any speed runs down the road pretty nice it is just a little tuff steering with the slop in the wheel and the leaning tire is wearing to the inside . i thought maybe the the tire could be adjusted back with the tie rod ends ?
  18. What would cause the front passenger tire on a 49 Plymouth to be leaning in at the top ?
