A picture of my seat I replaced the cardboard in with water proof material...

Joe, if you have a temp control knob, make sure it is pulling the valve all the way open and not restricting the flow of water. Pressure in the cooling system will not affect the flow. The direction of the flow thru the core doesn't matter either on heaters without a temp control valve.

Well, my carma must be good. Our local old time machine shop is nearby and I usually go by and clean his lot with my snowplow as a favor. After all, he always drops whatever he's doing and takes care of my problems right on the spot. Never charges much. Even lets me use his equipment to reline e brakes. I went in and told him about this car and he told me he'd overhauled a 49 Plymouth motor about 4 years ago. Guy left a deposit to do it and never came back. If I wanted it, I could have it. No charge! Well, hell yes! Looks like the old girl will travel again.

its a clutch release bearing while operative and fit for service..once bad..that is when it is called a throw out bearing.....(sense of humor needed here)

i looked for you little timmy ...

Gents, A bit over a year ago I bought a Zendex hand-held sandblaster to help clean rusted parts on Pigiron, my '48 P-15, and it worked well for the two minutes I used it before it became obvious I was going to need to build a blasting cabinet. Once I got a cabinet cobbled-together my compressor died and it's taken me this long before I could replace it, and then the blasting gun began leaking around the trigger. After disassembling the gun and not finding the problem I contacted the manufacturer (Zendex Tools) and explained what I had done and, long story short, today I received a new gun via UPS, no questions asked. An American company selling an American-made product and standing behind it although the warranty had long since expired spells a high level of integrity, and they are to be applauded. This is the way every company would work in a perfect world but let's all take a deep breath of realism and admit that Zendex's actions were above-and-beyond. Thanks for taking good care of your customers, no matter how small. -Randy
