    Horn ring

    51 plymouth you push the center down with the palm of your hand and twist counter clock wise.
  2. Is it the radiator or the disc style freeze plugs that are the weak link?
  3. Try restoration specialties they have more than is listed on their web site or in their catalog. So if you don't see it you can email them a photo with dimensions and they are good at getting back to you.
  4. I purchased the AB window moldings for a 51 plymouth and it was infact just a coil of rubber molding. I then purchased the Steele molded molding. dont know for sure what AB would supply for your 41 but in hind site would sure ask the question.
  5. I've got several meters as well, analog Amprobe, and a couple digital Klein. But my go to is the old Archer/Radio Shack that was my first. Purchased it in the early 70's for probably under $10
  6. for the glass try Auto Glassics in Springfield, OR https://www.vendio.com/stores/autoglassics/category/page=4/__http_host=www.vendio.com/catId=4519216 FWIW in an effort to save money I purchased the front and rear gaskets that Bernbaum sells. what i got was rubber molding by the foot. far cry from the factory style molded gasket sold by Steele. After much thought I opted to purchase the gaskets from Steele. Could an experienced glazer have used the Bernbaum product, I don't know. What I do know is I'm not an experienced glazer. Moral of the story trying to save money cost me more in the long run.

  8. current road bike. got back in to cycling about 5 years ago after a 30 year hiatus. rode a Peugeot in the 70's and a Fugi in the 80's.
  9. male bullet connectors will plug into this switch
  10. check with your machine shop. they should have reliable sources. as far as what to replace ,beside rings bearing and gaskets, I was taught to always replace the oil pump. For our old flat heads I would also replace the water distribution tube
  11. i installed my headliner before installing the windlace
  12. cables are replaceable. I used a manual choke cable kit i purchased at the local parts store. Larger parts store might sell the cable by the foot
  13. spring was a vibration damper.
  14. any idea how the size compares to a later model MOPAR V8 or slant six?
  15. I ran into the same problem with both DuPont and PPG found this company online TCP Global / Auto color Library https://www.autocolorlibrary.com/pages/classic-library
  16. to achieve the flush or recessed head plugs are NPS National Pipe straight Tapping in the block is NPT from the link posted by "sniper" above For rigidity; sealable only with sealant; sometimes male straight enclosed by female tapered for low-pressure sealing
  17. there is also the option of replacing the bushing and loop with a heim joint. someplace here on the forums there are photos of a member doing it.
  18. here is a photo of the underside of the oil bath air cleaner, you can clearly see the thumb screw and clamp Merle mentions
  19. they are pipe plugs (NPT) I believe 3/8x18 NPT any parts store should have them. FWIW 3/8 pipe is measured ID but has an OD of .675, where as a 5/8x18 NC bolt is .625 OD the smaller one is either 1/8 x 27 NPT .405 od or 1/4 x 18 NPT .54 od NPT Nominal(national) Pipe thread
  20. did he just remove them or did he replace them with something else?
  21. looks like I should have cleaned up the springs before I reinstalled them
  22. there is a clamp that holds the bar and bushing to the lower control arm I had a piece of hard rubber that I squared off with a belt sander for the end bushings. for the center bushings I just reinstalled the original supports as i did not see an easy solution and they were in better shape than the end bushings.
  23. 40 years ago this was the go to place for automotive electric. looks like thet have diversified since then http://lunaindustriesinc.com/automotive-starters/ if they did /do not have the part in stock they could rebuild yours
