    No replacement yet still arguing with insurance company. Word of advice don't use regular insurance company for historic cars.

    Due to unfortunate events and a total loss of the 49, I haven't been on the forum for 7 months now. It's still a hard pill to swallow after all that work. I had an urge to lurk on the forum today and just wanted to check in.

    Fire broke out near the wood stove 36 hours after use. It's undetermined but maybe hot spot in wall or electrical

    I'm not scared too drive in the snow or the other drivers either. Here In Syracuse area use to it. It's the salt and liquid brine they put on the roads that would melt my car before the snow melts. ?

    I think a transmission on hardwood floors is interesting, my wife would kill me. On a box or not?. Boy I would love an overdrive but don't want to part with the money

    Did you happen to use a test light or volt meter to see if the power is going to the contacts and through them, a couple of the wires inside the solenoid are soldered, I wonder if one came loose. I also would try moving the Bendix lever on the other end of the solenoid by hand. It should energized the starter if power is hooked up. Make sure it moves freely with some spring tension against it. It shouldn't feel sticky. There will be spring tension but it shouldn't hang up.

    You can also close the contacts manually with power applied the see off it works

    On the solenoid right behind the upper right terminal there are two contacts, when energized power should be on both sides of those contacts, if not clean them and check again if not then bend the lower one up a little and recheck

    I just had this problem with my 49royal. I removed the solenoid cover and used a test light to follow the path of power. I found power at the top of the contacts but not going to the bottom. So I cleaned the contacts and still nothing. There was a small gap in the contacts from years of cleaning, so I bent the lower contacts upward and all better. This was an intermittent issue that was heat related. Hope this helps
