Cpt.Fred

Hi all, thanks Tim and Fred for doing this! It's true, i haven't been able to do computer things other than work recently, but i'll start a thread over on the main board with lots of pictures as soon as it gets calmer here. the engine is scheduled to arrive here on march 20th and i have lots of work to do before it arrives. it isn't really hi-performance i guess, but it should drop some jaws once in a while, i hope. can't wait to get my hands on it :-) best from berlin, Fred

Great stuff! I love it... Thanks for posting this

indeed

that second one seems to be the one i have here. only nicely painted.

that looks like the one depicted in Roadkingcoupe's partsbook in post #12.

Wow, thanks for being so precise there, Roadkingcoupe! And thanks for posting the excerpts from your parts book. Funny thing is the depicted part doesn't look like anything i've ever seen on these cars... Mine shows a different parts number here, says all 1940 (US) 6-cyl models use front support plate #854407 (Group 9-N Engine Support). That would be P9 Roadking and P10 Deluxe from US fabrication. Is the truck frame different from the sedan aside from the front suspension? In any case i think the mount Fargo posted is the one i'm looking for, it's exactly like i imagined it from what i can see here on my frame and mount and the measurements i made. Andy: Sure, i'm doing my special black paint brush chrome magic here again 40Plyrod: You mean your car is a canadian unit?

Apparently they didn't: At first I thought so, too, but somehow i got suspicious.
