I used this dipstick as a replacement. It was a good fit for the hole in the block. I don't recall if I had to cut it for length or not. You will have to do an oil change and add the correct amount of oil to mark it accurately for full. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0D9VH11N5?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

I sold the car a few months ago but as far as I know the seat back is stationary b/c the roof folds behind it. It also helps to hide the power top cylinders. If it does flip down, I never knew that. The seat bases are hinged and flip up, as you mentioned.

Here's a picture of the folding jump seats from my 41 Convertible.

Just follow the above link. You should be able to see them regardless.

I live on the northeast side of Hartford, so not too far from your rally starting point. If you need any tools, garage space or possibly MOPAR specific parts while you're in the area, I'd be glad to lend a hand. Hopefully you won't have any issues but I'll PM my cell i# n case you do need something. Best of luck with the rally!

Maybe have your coupler welded or pin it to each shaft. Then have it turned down enough to fit the hole in the block.

+1 This is the only way I know of to get a broken extractor or tap out. Grind it. It can be done with dremel and diamond grinding bits. Many many hours of grinding though. Your not so much drilling it out but really chipping it out.

I get 21-13/16" in the requested direction, pinch weld edge to edge. Again this is from a convertible so it may be worth verifying it's the same tank as yours. Pics of measurement attached as well as an under car shot.

Time permitting, I may be able to get you some dimensions over the weekend. 50 Desoto Convertible, X frame under the passenger compartment but I believe from the crossmember back is the same. The tank is out but I can quickly fit it to measure.

Mine, time to part with it. https://hartford.craigslist.org/cto/d/south-windsor-1941-plymouth-convertible/7754005845.html

Wow, really nice work. Seems like you're really flying through this project. I have to admit I'm a bit jealous of your progress!.
