  1. Hey Don..you up early..trying to be the early bird on the April fools jokes...
  2. He is not crooked.(he did list the fee)...he preys on greed..his in shipping fee and hoping the bidder's greed (for not reading the fine print) thinking he is getting a super deal.
  3. My 1941 dodge Military 1/2 with 4 Wheel drive and 375 HP 440/727 was awesome..jump straight into the air...was even more fun with the 833 four speed I had in it earlier..sadly..bad knee sorta convinced me to install the automatic intead. Nice vehicle..short on headroom and front seat in general..like an idiot I sold it...
  4. Guess I did at that...still would like to know where the Bz Cp got off too....the guy who bought it from me told a guy a liked 54 Plymouths..got a call about one for sale one eveing..called few hours later and it was gone already. That was good for I was going to have to let the man kow I was not in the market so at least maybe it goes to a good home. Knowing this guy..he may be pulling up anytime now with the 383 he owes me installed...lol
  5. Lou..is this my old Business coupe maybe..it had a 440 in it when I saw it last..still no tranny hook up...boy lost interest in it and sold it...curious..does it have a 41 Dash in it?
  6. The red oval is on all the cars..the 3/4 by 3" strip usually is the briggs body tag. the round aluminum tag could be the export tag as I said and have trim and paint codes..now if this is not the case...could be over the years a state assigned vin number, see if this is the case by comparing with your title...usually this number is assigned only when the a-post number is missing..I really cannot tell the exact letters at the end of the tag...I know in So. Car. the issued number sould be like....SCHD #######
  7. John...forget Don C and the name thing..tell us more about the young women...lol
  8. Man, that is the third muffler bearing this year...I'm spending an extra 3.50 this time for the whirly-grommet to protect it.. my engine developed a leak that may have been contributed to a missing return spring and it piston my foot
  9. On the battery..don't mess with it..also be careful maintaining it..I have seen idiots put so much water in their batteries that it runs through the wire and into the tail light housings and collects there...you'd think people would learn better...and oh yeah...be sure to vent the reservoir when adding turn signal fluid by flipping the lever left and right..it can blow the cap off if you don't purge all the air. What's the preload on the choke..think mine is slipping.
  10. Ah...Enzo...I believe it was he that said, Brakes, they only slow you down...
  11. Lou..change your distributor filter..it may be clogged...
  12. I think this has been identified as the export tag with body trim and paint codes on it...and I don't think it was ever painted...I have never seen one up close and personal myself.
  13. Read this..apply it as you deem fit.. http://www.metropartsmarket.com/rearend/warranty.html
  14. As I understand and read this chart, the P15 starter will draw 68 amps and turn 4000 rpm at free running speed and pull voltage down to 5.5 volts The only other real method is to check the stall torque..this is very involved as you will need the correct resistor, ammeter, torque arm and spring scale...etc etc.
  15. nla
  16. Woodgraining 101, Louman way...remember the picture of the wooden truck..well the dog in the foreground used to be brown also till he started learning woodgraining..look close..does that dog really look happy...huh..does he???
  17. Sorry James..that just don't compute...when I take my car out I am busy with other curves... You will see a remarkable improvement in the final drive at speed..should be so much quieter...
  18. I used JB weld on a late model gas tanks after finding a hole punched into it for quick draining....yeah ....lets not go there...anyway..I super cleaned the area with the wire brush...wiped clean with solvent...smeared a tad of JB on a larger sheet metal self threading bolt with large washer...screwed it in tight and then brushed a layer of JB over that...little undercoating after that and no one is the wiser...worked like a champ.
  19. going by the Plymouth book for the three speed... 2.57 first 1.83 second 1.00 third fast second is 1.55
  20. Actually I could be more concerned about the silicones in the wax..we be talking serious fisheye here and if waxed now and later sanded the dust now has contaminated lots of other areas that may need paint...
  21. The manifold is cracked already, the carb is removed...so if it were to come loose and fall nothing could get damaged..that is why it is still stuck fast..try installing your carb..now it will fall and break the carb completeing its cycle.... I AM AT A LOSS ON THIS ALSO
  22. very sharp car...
  23. I agree..just something about them big ugly thangs I just love...even that grille does grow on you...
  24. night before last I tried to send a PM in answer to an incoming message..it would let me open a reply box but would not let me type a thing..had to wait till next morning to reply...but I just figured it was maybe my computer..I had not turned it off for a couple weeks..stays on 24/7..if I get a glitch..reset usually clears my probs..so as it was late..just shut down for the night.
  25. yep..thats what I saw at his house last time I was there...the brown dog is the one that holds the title on this one.
