  1. Hers a link to a really cool calculator ... Put in the amount $ and set the year you wonder what IT would cost TODAY! Very addicting...! Copy this link and paste it to your address bar... DANiel Here's the link: http://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm
  2. 951305 mopar number says its a Left handed ..Short Outer tie rod end On the other side 951303 it says... Long outer tie rod end .. Would either one work I wanted to replace a newer tierod end for a NOS one for my 40 Plymouth The part #'s are from the 1936 to 1948 Plymouth Parts Reference Manual (on line) Thanks for the info Daniel
  3. I also used The GE Silicone clear glue on mine.... Its been working great also.. BUT I did see a NOS one on ebay! it used leather and had these spring clips in it! .. Since my car was painted I saw no need to get one to replace it..DANiel
  4. Door Check Arm Rivet mopar # 536249 seems to fit 1930's to 1960's Plymouth's and ??? does any one know who might sale these. A guy on ebay sells a repair kit that screws together I'm looking to find and install the original type This is the part that connects the arm to the body by the hinges . I did not have the old ones to compare or know what they looked like ..TXS DANiel
  5. Today's the day I installed the antenna... After seeing a photo of a hole under the liner I drilled.. . I was able to install it... quickly after that... I am only able to rotate it to the horizontal visor not down to the windshield bar becuase of the visor... But I'm ok with that .. I figure I will more than likely always have it up.. thanks again for the photo it was a big part of getting this done...DANiel
  6. Young Ed....THANK-YOU that's it I just pulled down my liner and there is not a hole in my 40 like yours... but this can easily be done now .. But the hard part was wonder how high it was and your help made it simple to "see" Thank-you DANiel
  7. Yes ..you have to cut a holeintheroof.. (thats theeasy part) there is a template in the kit for that. The hard part for me is to figure out if there is a hole inside the car which is the header pannel.. The instuctions state to drill a 11/32 hole for the inside antenna What I am trying to figure out is is ther a inside hole and if a 41 -46 has one I plan on removing the trim and look under the headliner I called a guy from the POC and he told me not to believe the instructions most of the time he said the isntructions where onlya start to get the job done.. so if anyone knows for sure ther is ahole in the header panel behind the headliner let me know..DANiel
  8. I need a favor "please" .. I just got a very rare antenna the windshield header type Part no. 904042.... rotating adjustable center roof type I need pictures of the molding above the rear view mirror... knock out plug (s) The instructions say after a certain production number 1941 Plys Doges etc. have two knock out plugs (maybe only one?) on the windshield molding.(these are for the adjustable knob and the inside antenna rod... There was a knock out behind the wiper knob .. I seen those..) My 40 does not have these plugs which means I have to Drill them . I want to be sure before I drill I am 100 % sure... I got a great deal its only missing a rubber gasket which I have on order and did not have to pay the 495.00 like the one that was mentioned earlier ..I got this one for 150.00 but it really looks NOS.. so its a a Early Christmas present for the Ply. Thanks for the pictures DANiel
  9. I just got done installing my Prewar orginal Western Electric phone in my 40 Plymouth.. I put a small mp3 player that when picked up will ring and a special operator voice asks you to hold ..while she connects your call then after all that it has a prerecorded massage that says I'm sorry the number you.... I made a special bracket that bolts undr the seat and goes between the seats . Big hit at the shows and showing this item.. DANiel
  10. I used a dehumidifier in a car once ran it for a month ... just make a hose to take the water out and let her run will dry out any thing that might be making the smell, ( if its still decomposing..) good luck DANiel
  11. YOu don't have to cut "IF" the presure plat has no groves worn in it.... Just as you wouln't have to cut your drums every time you replace your shoes (unless they where groved) Now only you can say if it chattered before you took it apart then you might want to at least cut it.. ON my car the most important thing was replacing the piolot shaft bushing made a really smooth operating culuch after the rebuild parts went back in... DANiel
  12. As a side note: trust me I do not like leaks... But maybe I read it here or the Hamb.. quote: "My car doesn't leak .... It marking its teritory..!"
  13. This why ever battery "Must" be Load checked "yearly" you can not tell by voltage .. Most shops and fast auto parts stores wil do it for free.. ...DANiel
  14. Take a look at this ad for a Wester Electric 2 Way communication system and this was back in 1939 ... Looks like "ALL " the good ideas where born in the 40's.. DANIel
  15. THANK-YOU guys for the answer... But funny thing happen .. This morining the other Parts Supplier.. Brought me a Victor head gasket.... It was something I new I wanted immidatley .. Because it was ...Copper. and the Felpro did not look like that "through " the package.. So I bought it evan though the extra bump was on it.. I was suprised only one sie had the copper on it but I ended up using the Felpro copper gasket spray.. BUT the funny part is ........... The Victor head gasket "Had" a Felpro manufatures stamp on it... I wonder IF I opened the felpro gasket I would of seen a one sided copper gasket also...? Thaks again to all ........DANiel
  16. My 1940 201 P10 Plymouth had a leak coming from the rear ... Decided to take the head off and send it for a Head shave.. and checked out.. All worked out fine except The place I took my head arranged to get me a Head gasket he sent a Fel Pro 7564C Problem is it has the extra water outlet on the end.. I called him and he says it the correct one .. Called Fel Pro and they said they ran in to this problem .. Some guys would use it but he said Chrysler Numbers back in the day whee off for Plymouths.... He said to try 7256C (1937 Ply 214 engine) I did check a picture on line and it looks like the one (7256C).. I also had a another Parts supplier send me a Victor head gasket .. (In case it looks exactly the same) My ? is has any one used the extra hole on a engine that did not use it and not have any problems with it? Thanks ...DANiel
  17. I forgot to mention .... Make sure you have a little free play on the push rod by the master Cly. otherwise "if" you get a pedal do the 10 second test pump up the brakes till a good pedal then for ten seconds "hold the pedal down" and lightly pull back and push down .. What you are trying to see if the master "bleeds down " making it show you have a bad master Cly.. Thanks for letting me know about the glass jar ..Something about the French glass jars I saw a used on from the 50's I have my eye on...Thanks again DANiel
  18. When I did my 40 Plymouth I put all new master lines and wheel cyl, when I install new parts I just use a hand oil pump fill it with brake fluild,.... Then just fill up each wheel cyl then If nessary (becuase of news lines ) do the same pre fill them up ... Then I put a hose on each cyl and open the cyl. and have someone slowly pump untill I see fluild only... I had one guy still had trouble so I told him to lift the frt end up around 1.5 to 2 ft and do this procedure..and his problems where solved (might try that trick) Any chance you can tell me where you got thatbrake fluild bottle ... I've been wanting one of those item s for my car... or know where I can get a vintage glass one thanks DANiel
  19. Nice item for those that might need it ...But , make sure you know which speedo this one fits.. 1940 Plymouth's had two different manufactures!.. one auto-lite the other king Seeley.. THEY are not interchangable... Also their is some confusion on what color the ring should be some have a tan-ish color others like that one a darker one.. /.. Since I have a 40 clock it seems the one on ebay is a the right color .. However some say the lighter ones are from sun fading... DANiel
  20. If they are yellowed not too bad . I have used in the past denture (partial ) cleaners just put in a many tablets you want to and let it soak.. But if it or they are really yellowed go buy some Hydro Procide the type u use for cuts etc or the really strong one . at a professional woman's hair supply and let them soak the longer the better Evan a week !.. Good luck DANiel
  21. I would use either one ...BUT the only info I got is the bottom # 1244921 is for 1950 models... . I'm trying to figure out if I can modifiy it if I have to or use it as is .. (before I buy it)... DANiel
  22. Does anyone any any information on a item I would like to have .. For my 1940 Plymouth.. A under hood light kit... There seems to be two differant numbers 1232607 1244921 The box looks about the same the items might be the same from looking at the pictures Are they the same just maybe made differant yrs? Thanks for the info..DANiel
  23. I saw a Optima car battery, that made their battery look like a vintage 6 volt battery.. Does anyone know if anyone makes a Replica (6 volt cover) It will just slip over a newer looking battey, to make them look old.... and where to get one...Thanks DANiel
