  1. Did you use tubes in your 215/85R 16s?
  2. Can anyone help with a tire size 6.50-16 for 1946 Dodge PU. The only ones I can find are Coker for $200, way to much for me. Has anyone found a modern tire size that will fit on these original wheels that are 4-5 inches wide? Thanks Dave
  3. Anyone know where I can get a oil pressure relief spring for 1946 Dodge pick up? Bernbaum or Roberts do not have them any more. I hope there are some new ones out there some place. thanks Dave
  4. thanks for the tip on the metal bed! Dave
  5. One more note,after the engine cooled the oil psi was back to 45. I will take your advise and take the pan off. I will let you guys know what I find,I work so slow in it will be weeks before I get Back. grey beard I am in Titusville. Thanks Dave
  6. I just bought this 46 P U today,. the seller only put 1800 miles on it in 12 years. I start off on the 50 mile trip home with 40 to 50 lbs of oil psi. All is well for about 30 miles when the oil psi drops to 10 lbs. I stop, still have oil and a cool engine, the next 5 miles the oil psi varies 5 to 20 lbs. I stop and buy a qt of oil, that brings the psi up to about 30 lbs. I made it home with no damage I Hope.Any ideas, suggests please. Dave
  7. I am surprised the ribbed floor is original but very happy. I will try to save it. thanks all.
  8. thanks for reply--its hard to describe--corrugated is wavey--this is about 2 and 1/2 inch wide flat then up 1/2 inch then 2 and 1/2 inch wide then down 1/2 inch and so on. if that makes any sense. If that would be factory I think I could save it.There is rust on what looks like a seam up the middle.
  9. This 1935 pickup has a corrugated like metal bed on the floor,I would like to put the correct bed material back in .Can anyone tell me if the orginal bed was flat steel and how thick? Or where can I find this infomation? thanks Dave
  10. I cannot get the gas line going to the gas tank to tighten .[48 p15] The nut welded on the gas tank is too deep, the fitting will not go in far enough to hit bottom. Is there a special fitting or adaptor that will make this seat tight? I am using a store bought steel line with a double flare. thanks Dave
