    Sweet, love that he kept the vintage interior, right down to the steering wheel.

    The second picture is a sisson choke mechanism. It's an automatic choke, you are missing the linkage that goes to the carb choke butterfly. In the first picture you can see where someone hamboned in a manual choke setup.

    Heater duct and head bolt, or are you asking about the thing behind the circled head bolt? If so, Sisson choke.

    I hesitate to say for sure as I do not know how your hand brake setup is wired in originally and why the flasher is involved, I can guess though. I don't hae any Chrysler manuals to look at the schematics on
  6. Sniper
    dang it, you are right I snafu'd that one, lol

    With the proper flasher you do not need load resistors. https://litezupp.com/Flasher-Electronic-3-Prong-6-Volt-Positive-Ground Gee, from the culprits mentioned, lol https://www.ledlight.com/flasher-6-volt-led-3-prong-120-watt-positive-chassis.aspx All you have to do is read the write up for their flasher to tell you they don't know doodly.

    70+ year old rubber doesn't live long in use.

    Not sure what that word means. Measure out your old one, use the Wix site to find the right one, remember it is a bypass filter. https://wixfilters.com/Lookup/FilterBySize.aspx?catid=3&styleid=9
  11. Sniper
    No idea You still have the old one?

    Gear oil pump, turkey baster, etc. A real nut might even plumb a drain line with shut off ale into the bottom connection.

    Probably have to pull a permit to do all that, then the tax assessor would get involved and the state alcohol commission would wonder what you were doing, etc and so forth. lol

    this is local to me, not mine though. If anyone is serious bout it I could look at it.

    Near as I can figure, the switch is used to tell the cruise control circuit that the brakes have been applied. The circuit is powered all the time. The switch starts leaking internally causing a short, one that doesn't pop a fuse. Eventually, the short heats up enough to ignite the brake fluid causing the fire. Once it starts it has the contents of the master cylinder to use as fuel until it starts anything in the area to burn. The fix is a new switch with an inline fuse. This is what my coworker had already had done when his went up in smoke.

    Exactly, which is why I hesitated to say use them in that thread you mentioned. You know someone isn't going to read the label, get the wrong stuff and lay blame elsewhere. GL-1 not a problem. As for GL-5 being better, well my trans lived 70 years with GL-1, guess it may not be as good as GL-5, but it's good enough and then some, imo. Either one if fine, but read the label lol.

    What disturbed me is that you don't have a service manual. The function of that plug is discussed in it.
  18. Sniper
    Solder it closed and drill a .030" hole in it.
  19. Sniper
    My 51, non-OD trans, has a backup light switch.
  20. Sniper
    I don't know, that's why I said I think it will work, have to test it first
  21. Sniper
    A good bearing shop can do that, try an ag supplier.

    online cross reference http://www.kakapart.com/search/defaultsearch/2B-1869 Maybe of someone has the OEM Chrysler number for the front seal it can be crossed.

    It looks like any other Grant three bolt adapter. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/GRT-4310
  24. Sniper
    Yes, search for KeithB's posting on this very subject
  25. Sniper
    There is a reason the steering wheel is big, leverage. You need it with manual steering. Or bigger guns, lol. I can one hand my steering but my son cannot, yet. That said, I have a grant adapter I think will work, but haven't tried it yet. I am not looking for a smaller wheel, just one that isn't all cracked or stupid expensive.
