  1. 20 years, from this to this
  2. Great story Andy. Your enthusiasm is contagious.
  3. I like that. I have been able to find the chrome for my D-19 between ebay and swap meets. It doesn't get it all done at once and it isn't all perfect but I can afford it that way and I enjoy the hunt. Congratulations!
  4. If these were promotional affairs they could have any type of modified rears under them. Could have welded them up even. By the way it is 12 deg F here this morning with high winds.
  5. Now that is a first class sleigh if I ever saw one. I like it.
  6. Good you didn't run it that way. Leaving it sit awhile before draining it was probably good also as it allowed all the water to drain to the bottom of the pan so you got it out. I would probably crank the engine over a little with the coil wire pulled before firing it off just to circulate the oil well. Getting it warmed up and letting it run awhile should clear up any residual moisture I would think.
  7. Yes, my manual was in the envelope and the card and service contract were in the manual when I found them.
  8. Yours look to have survived better than mine. Mine is the U.S. version. I found mine in the glove box under some junk. The cover really protected the contents though. The service contract unfolds and has the service coupons inside.
  9. It is always the last thing you check. LOL, couldn't resist. Glad to hear it is up and running again.
  10. Don't rule out bad fuel either. It might be a good idea to put some dry gas in and try running it then.
  11. Check your oil for the smell of gasoline. If it flooded that badly it may have got some gas in the oil. Won't make it run bad but could damage the internals and you won't want to run it without changing the oil. I would also pull those plugs and have a look, could be fouled badly. If the plugs are ok I would next put a timing light on it. If it is off, check the points first, if you don't have a timing light I would check the points before digging any deeper at this point......Tim
  12. The kids faces say it all.
  13. Nice find!
  14. Looking good!
  15. Dear Santa, I want a dual carb intake and a dual exhaust and........
  16. Everyone should make sure their kids have fix-a-flat (although with the tire off the rim it won't work this time), tire tools, a spare and the knowledge to use them. My daughters ex-boyfriend hit a curb and cut a tire, she had to change it for him. They came here, I went and got him a tire but made him change it. His Dad is a mechanic, gotta drive him crazy that his kid has no mechanical aptitude.
  17. Good tip Don. I have a metal bowl with a permanently attached magnet I use for smaller stuff but the 'fridge magnets in a larger pan is something I will surely use in the future.
  18. You just can't beat a cute dog picture, especially with an old Plymouth in the frame.
  19. Nice pics. Car looks great.
  20. Very nice.
  21. Sounds like a good day.
  22. Great find! You are going to like it here. These guys have a wealth of knowledge and they love to share.
  23. Nothing like the thrill of bringing one back to life after it has been down a long time. Congrats.......Tim
  24. Good fix!
  25. Happy Birthday Tim!
