  1. Some of this maybe ? https://www.jmesales.com/tiger-green-epdm-suction-hose/
  2. If you want a little boost in power now would be the time to install a set of cast iron dual exhaust headers from Langdon's Stovebolt.
  3. Hey, who you callin an old goat ? Why I oughta...…...
  4. Have you checked your vacuum advance ? If it's torn the truck will be very sluggish.
  5. My 39 Chrysler Royal had a push button starter button on the dash.
  6. You can get exact reproduction 6 volt wiring harnesses from Rhode Island Wiring or Y n Z's yesterdays parts.
  7. I was told years ago when I was considering restoring a 38 1/2 ton that they all had 25" engines. The engine number should be stamped on the drivers side up front just below the head. If it is a 38 Truck motor the number should start with a T42 or T43.
  8. I was told that the mounts for the later bell and trans are different than the '33 but I don't know this from my own experience. I'm just relaying what I've heard.
  9. If your car right now still has the 189 ci 70hp engine I hear you will have to modify the starter in order for it to bolt up to the original bell housing/transmission. The 189 does not have full water jackets around the pistons and the original bell housing has the starter mount closer to the engine because of this. I have heard that you will have to grind a flat spot on the starter where it touches the later engine with full water jackets and maybe even grind a flat spot on the engine too. Let me know how that turns out because I would like to install a larger flat 6 in my 33 Plym also.
  10. Where does the wire go to from that contraption? It's definitely an after market doohickey.
  11. Aluminum radiator and beltline trim is up side down.
  12. Looks like about a 39 or 40 to me,.
  13. Don't forget this option I mentioned on 7/2017. eBay # 123429840038 You can buy some abs material at Lowes and make your own.
  14. Check the float bowl shut off valve. It might have a little dirt that is preventing it from shutting off the flow of gas resulting in the float bowl overflowing.
  15. I think so…..Look at the fear on Don's face in the third photo.
  16. Thanks guys. I'm really surprised no one is making them. I'm busy making Dash Glass. I know....I'll make them out of glass ? kidding. Check me (grandpadodge) out on eBay if interested.....
  17. Okay I give ☹️……..where can I buy a fuel pump block off plate for our flathead 6 engines. I've tried eBay, Summit, Jegs, and more and I've STRUCK OUT. I was running an electric fuel pump through the mechanical pump on my 39 Chrysler until the oil pump started taking on gas !!!!! NOT GOOD I have 3 more Flat 6's with elec. pumps and I want to abandon the mechanical pumps. HELP ! Do I have to make my own ?
  18. That's because the speedo pictured is a Dodge truck. I'm not familiar what the same vintage car speedo looks like but I have see some with a felt covered hole that will take a couple of drops of oil.
  19. Try entering your vin # here. vindecoder.expert/
  20. iT'S EASIER TO JUST REACH UNDER THE DASH AND UN SCREW THE CABLE FROM THE BACK OF THE SPEEDO. THEN PULL THE INNER CABLE OUT BUT PROTECT YOUR UPHOLSTERY AND CARPET CAUSE THE CABLE IS GONNA BE DIRTY.
  21. Are these psi readings at idle or while driving ?
  22. Have you tried Rhode Island Wiring and Y n Z's supply ?
  23. I don't think so, they look like 1/2 ton fenders to me.
  24. In most cases, and maybe all, the visor needs a center support to avoid having the visor take to the air while driving. Can you post a photo of it ?
