  1. I have a 1949 P18 3 speed transmission. Can anyone tell me what other years this transmission would be suitable for. Are they the same 1940 to 1956?
  2. Have a 47 Dodge pick up with a foot actuated start pedal and want to change it to a push button start. I'm assuming that a 46-55 Plymouth/Dodge passenger starter will be a bolt on.
  3. Thanks all. The number I was seeking is MAW 4041 which apparently fits 46 to 55 Plymouth 6. After several false starts I finally found it on the net.
  4. Thanks Tim. Is that the number on the tag on the starter?
  5. Can anyone tell me the Autolite part number for a 46-48 Plymouth 6 volt starter? Thanks
  6. I agree with Frankie47. My engine is comparible to Forty6217 and I've been running a pair of B&B's for 4 years with no problems and 20 mpg on the highway in O.D.
  7. That is indeed an interesting vehicle. Sure looks like dual wheels on rear. Any idea what it says on the door?
  8. Have you checked the general condition of the engine: compression test etc., checked for vacuum leaks or dragging brakes or a slipping transmission? You may be trying to breath life into a dead horse. Not having owned a slanter for many years I don't remember them giving great gas mileage. They are a great little engine though. Good luck.
  9. Didn't some of the BIG Chryslers from the late 40's, early 50's use a six inch rim?
  10. That is one sweet ride Rick. I had a very nice 41 coupe back in the late 60's and still kick myself in the butt for selling it.
  11. That storm is supposed to hit Toronto tonight and tomorrow. If the forcast is accurate it will be the most snow we've had since 2008.
  12. What is the thing that appears to be mounted on the steering column?
  13. You won't have any trouble with a compression union on a steel line.
  14. Congratulations on driving the wheels off the old girl. I especially like the roof mounted wing to keep her glued to the road.
  15. That is a P18 Special DeLuxe Club Coupe. I have the same model.
  16. Yes there is a Rockwood Ontario. It's a little west of Toronto on Highway #7.
  17. I believe one of the tricky bits using a small block Ford is finding the correct oil pan and oil pick-up for your application.
  18. She be nice from both ends Rodney. Congratulations.
  19. That is one sweet ride Rodney. Sure would like to see the front.
  20. My first car way back in 1956 was a 48 Plymouth that was the same colour grey. Guess what it was called, "The Grey Ghost." Have a fun trip.
  21. There are quite a few oldies in Ontario running YOM plates but they are expensive, I believe around $200.00 to register them and a yearly fee not to mention paying an inflated price for a pair of good plates to begin with. As for me not being able to use mine because they are the same number/letter combination as current motorcycle plates, one only has to live in Ontario to realize that there are many strange rules in this Province that don't make a lot of sense.
  22. You can use YOM plates in Ontario as long as the number/letter combinations are not currently in use. In my case the 49 plates I bought for my P18 could not be used as the number/letter combinations are currently used on motor cycles.
  23. My 49 has a 3.91 gear and an O.D. It works just as it's supposed to. It goes into O.D. at about 30 odd mph and also works in second gear. I have no idea why yours won't but mine works fine. Also running a 6 volt solenoid in a 12 volt system with no problem after 3 years.
