Hounddog

Well to pay off my divorce I had to sell my 46 plymouth and pay the lawyer. I was very sad to see her go and the guy that bought her looked pretty happy. I have since bought a pontoon boat because the kids wanted something they could also enjoy so now im on to boats for a while. Thanks for all the help you guys have lent me over the past year

This one seems to be in very nice shape. I bet worth the money they are asking for it. http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/cto/1039106243.html

Ive been looking on ebay since I bought the car and have no luck. If you have some spares and are willing to part with them let me know.. I appreciate all the help!

I have an extra carb that came with my car guy said he just bought a rebuilt one off of ebay...wonder if I should rebuild the original and set up for duals...or just an extra. It would have to be rebuilt so no help there.

I went to the salavage yard this weekend the only one that had a 46-48 plymouth and when the guy went to take the emblems off for me he snapped all the studs and all I left with was a ash trey from the back seat..Was wondering if anyone had any extra emblems the front plymouth one and the two special deluxe ones on the side they would be willing to sale??

No the welds are holding at the moment its leaking somewhere in the honeycomb i believe. Ill start looking for a new one shortly

OH man i LOVE babes i miss the chubby cheese and fries!! Ill have some when i go back for sure!

Thank you for your help I wonder what pressure I should get?? maybe 5-6 lbs?

Here is some pictures doesnt look stock but I dont know. wow those pictures are small

Im not sure what the original radiator looks like but it seems this might have been changed and it has a 15-18 lb pressure cap on it the radiator hose comes out the right side facing the front of the car and the cap is on the left

While calling around I found about every parts store has them and they run around 16 dollars.. not bad compared to what you can spend on a coil and the rest it could help not to burn out.

Well on the front page of the web site it says that they carry parts from autos 1997 to present so I would assume they dont. Just call and ask would be your best bet

well Im not sure if the horns on it are stock they are the snail shaped ones and the horn relay isnt seeming to work either. The horns do blow when I place a wire directly from the battery to it and they sure are loud

Well after spending all day replacing the spark plugs wires coil points condensor and rotor. Noticed that the radiator was leaking it never ends. While looking on the internet noticed this website... Are they being serious??? http://www.wikihow.com/Seal-a-Leaking-Radiator

I never thought of a turkey baster thats a great idea! Thanks everyone for the help I would never of thought of a baster.

Ok im pretty confused now Ive been reading on this site and other sites about the coil....I bought an accel 8140 12V coil to put in but i dont know if i still need the ballast resistor im pretty sure I do i have one on the car that isnt hooked up to anything how can i check to see if its still good and if it is then how is it wired to the coil. I bought new condensor, points, rotor and spark plug and wires the site says the plugs need to be gapped at .028 but they come gapped at .040 should I reduce the gap??? any help will be appreciated!

I found an oil filter at the local napa store when i go about changing the oil how do i get the oil out of the filter canister out? does it drain as the oil does or is there something special I need to do?

Thank you Don Im pretty sure the PO Just threw a battery in there and didnt do anything. Its a universal 12 volt coil so since its negative ground I just run the wires to the + and - posts on the coil..Sorry for the questions ran through alot of old threads just didnt see it. The guy I bought it from said it was already converted but I can see now it wasnt...The old wires was shot and nothing was switched.. This is the first car I have ever converted so I'm trying to do everything right I have already replaced all the bulbs. the horns and now i have the coil. I plan on doing the altenator next and I saw the thread where you made the bracket for the GM 1 wire..Ill be using that thread to do my own I appreciate your help.

Yea I read the article seems whoever wrote it pretty much says if you change to 12v your out of your mind and says you need to replace the ammeter while several people in here says it would be fine just reverse it.

Ive been searching past threads and I notice several mentions on the ammeter but I know when switching to negative ground you need to switch the wires on the ammeter to work. What all wires do you have to switch over??? I just bought a 12V coil and i plan on getting an alternator soon. But wiring my headlights to the switch and they stay on with the fuse out do I need to switch the wires on the headlight switch also? and the Coil? Just wondering what all wires i have to switch to make sure the 12v negative ground works properly. Thanks ahead of time!

woops i thought i had this on the 12 volt thread! I didnt realize i placed it on the oil filter one sorry

If I bought this car I would end up sleeping in it.. Other than the 46 ply we also have a 97 chevy silverado and a galant(hers not mine) I dont have anywhere to store it!....that being said I really want it.

I dont mind going to take pictures of it I just dont have room for it myself but didnt know if anyone wanted one for a parts car if no one is interested ill just hang out and fix my plymouth how much is a good flathead worth? if it turns over

While at the napa auto parts store asking about an oil filter for my 1946 plymouth the guy says hey I have a 1946 dodge in my yard I want to get rid of and when I asked he said it was a suicide foor door but had the butterfly hood? Im not a big dodge guy but this sounds like an earlier dodge 30's maybe? He said it has a flat head six and it had the fast drop at the back of the car..the floor is rusted bad but he wants 500 hundred for it..if anyone is interested later this week i can take pictures..Its in oklahoma city
