God bless Tod Fitch and Chester Brzostowski.

Don, Understood as a miscom. However Ive been buying Pennzoil and that isnt 2.00. Jon

God bless you Tod Fitch.

Thanks for pointing it out. Jon

Gents, For those on Facebook, I've created a FB group so that we can gather there as well and share pics. I'm also hoping to meet some other folks in the Souther California/Los Angeles area that want to get together and meet sometime. http://www.facebook.com/groups/203318279759834/ Thanks, Jon

Gents, I was driving the car on the freeway and lost about a quart. I think it is Rear Main Seal time...and while under there...get a few other things taken care of. I know I'm going to buy the BEST GASKET brand...but it shows an Internal and an External. My Mopar Master Parts list only lists the rope. Which one should a guy get? http://bestgasket.com/engine_catalog_years.asp?YearsCID=1935-59%20Plymouth%20201-218-230.......[523] Should the rope just suffice? Or should I get the inside AND outside gasket? Please advise guys. I'd like to get these and put these in before I spend too gd much on oil. And no, it isn't 2.00 a quart. Thanks ahead of time, Jon

Gents, Pardon the stupid question, but what type of silicone and is it the same that you get at the hardware store? Also, do you have to have a special caulking type gun for that? And does it have to be hot/warmed up like hot glue? Thanks, Jon

Gents, The parts list found at: http://www.merc583.addr.com/mopar/framesets/partsframeset.html Hasn't been updated since 2002. I would like to volunteer to help put together a much more updated list if you guys are willing to participate in helping me gather the data based upon what you folks have bought. I'll even host it offsite if the admin here wants me to. Let me know. Jon

That picture is very very old. Here is a new picture from a couple of months ago when it was parked outside of the barber shop in Hollywood. And one in front of my house. I no longer have those full moons. I am using the traditional 16 inch wheels with bias ply tires and dog dish hub caps. Jon

May your cars run smooth and flawlessly. And may gas be cheap! Jon

Folks, I PROUDLY drive a Plymouth, not a Dodge. However, I would REALLY like one but don't have the storage space. I am going to bend the clips and put a VERY thin bead of silicone on it. And yes, there are potholes next to potholes and crappy roads in LA. Oh, and if any of you are in LA...my car can finally drive the freeway and long distances. I think the limit would be Long Beach though. I have no wishes to die on the 710 or 405. Thanks guys! Jon

Folks, I know I've been away for awhile, so forgive me. That little thing called life has kept me away from my beloved car and this wonderful site. My old girl is running like a top, with no problems whatsoever. The steering is dialed in perfectly, the alignment...well hell is going to get as good as it is going to get. I was in Hollywood yesterday, went around a curve (and this happens once a year to the same damn front passenger side wheel) and hit a pot hole. WHAMMO, what should I see out the corner of my eye? A chrome rolling speck and the familiar sound of a hubcap rolling away. I quickly pulled over, looked for and found the hubcap. Then I was off on my merry way. I notice when I put the hubcap on, it seems somewhat loose. But it ONLY comes off when a HUGE pothole or woggle in the road is hit HARD. Any advice as far as fastening this hubcap on? Yes, I have all my clips. I'm hoping someone has found an adhesive to also help secure the hubcap in place, but yet an adhesive that doesn't damage both wheel and hubcap...and is easy to take off in a need. Any thoughts that you might have would be appreciated. OH, AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! Jon

Has anyone put together a definitive parts guide and where to get these parts somewhere on the board? FG.

Has anyone verified whether the eBay Ford kickdown switch is the same for our cars? FG.

Reach out to me Mack. Get this, I think the radio guy in Arcadia has your radio in the warehouse. LOL. FG.

YEAR= 1947 (Early) MAKE= Plymouth MODEL= Club Coupe BODY COLOR = MATTE BLACK ELECTRICAL = 12V ISSUE= Requesting information on vendor, pricing and part number of replacement passenger side 12V headlight.

FG.

Gents, Apologies for the vagueness. I typed that from a mobile browser so didn't want to be long on the onscreen keyboard. I have the new lamp in and everything is fine. Yes, 12V, no 6. Now, I need to figure something new out as something happened driving down Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. FG.

Folks, I went to Oreillys and found a great replacment and I drove home the car this evening just fine and happy. Thanks, FG.

Actually, I have a 12V system. Would this kill the hell out of the bulb or cause the system to overheat? FG.

Hello Gang, Long time no see. I drove the Plymouth for the first time in four weeks as I'd been traveling for work. And I realized that my passenger side headlight was toast. Does anyone know the replacement part from O'Reilly's or Napa? Thanks, FG.

Happy New Year! FG.

Powerhouse and Others, The mechanic is on holiday and I can ask him about that stuff when he gets back if you want me to. FG.

He chose the vacuum. And she runs AWESOME. FG.

I'll take pictures later today. Unfortunately for me, I have to work today. FG.

Folks, I have finally had the HEI installed by a mechanic friend of mine. It is running soooo smooth and the car is running amazingly well. I killed ANOTHER fuel pump, so had to replace that. Other than that the car is running like a champ. I'm going for a long drive after work tomorrow. The next on the list to do is the overdrive to be rebuilt and installed. FG.
