Can’t wait to be cruising again.

5 months later, I got my engine back from machine shop. Crank was ground 0.30 over, bored 0.40, cam, tappets, oil pump and gone over throughout. Cost was crazy high in my opinion at $3,700. But stuff cost nowadays. Now to paint this and that so the 40 Chrysler Windsor will be back on the road soon.....

Beautiful car! Don’t know much about the wipers, going to have to ticker with mine this Spring.

On a 40 Chrysler the manual says to pull the front clip. Was easy to do. And I did pull the trans first, that’s a heavy little 3sp......

That’s about 600 miles and sounds like a great trip. Just may do!

My 40, 241 flathead is in machine shop now. Pistons, crank ground, 2 new rod, valve guides, and machine work will be 3,500 to 4,000 when finished. It hurts to pay that much but I want to drive it long distances worry free. My other 40 Chrysler might get the v8, auto, a/c treatment.

Very nice sedan! My new toy 40 Windsor is being delivered today. Can't wait to start playing with it.

Thanks, everybody! I will keep all posted on how it works out. Having issues loaded more photos for some reason.

Hello all ! Just found this forum and happy I did. Browsing around it looks like a wealth of information is here about the mopar flathead 6. I just purchased 1940 Chrysler Windsor that won't be delivered until Tuesday. Can't wait to start tinkering with it. Got it at a fire sale price because it has what sounds like a rod knock. Hoping for an easy fix but will deal with whatever it needs to make it reliable. So I will be here picking your's all brains on things I find. Cosmetically exterior and interior is good to go on this. Happy to be driving a cool ride in the near future. I named the car Jolly after the Jolly Green Giant
